Estudio de rendimiento de torque y potencia en vehículos categoría M1 equipados con un dispositivo nitro eco obd II en el Distrito Metropolitano de Quito

Abstract

This article analyzes the variation obtained in torque and power of an Otto Cycle engine by adding a power increasing device. The study methodology involves three types of gasoline internal combustion vehicles of different brands with a similar displacement with naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines. These mentioned parameters were not established as fixed since the device subjected to this test according to the manufacturer's recommendations works in all types of automotive regardless of the displacement and its system, whether atmospheric or turbocharged. The results analyzed in this article were obtained through the use of a car dynamometer and driving tests on two urban routes within the Metropolitan District of Quito. Driving style, fuel quality, environmental conditions among other aspects. The results obtained from the engines in the vehicles evaluated apparently show a slight improvement in torque and power; however, it is suggested to conduct a study on a fleet of cars with the same characteristics (make and model) to obtain a conclusive result.
