Estudio de rendimiento de torque y potencia en vehículos ciclo diésel usando un dispositivo nitro ECO OBD2 en el Distrito Metropolitano de Quito.”

Abstract

The objective of this article is to determine the feasibility of using the Nitro ECO OBD2 device as a possible economic solution to improve the performance of diesel engines, seeking a considerable increase in the torque and power of the vehicles. The study was based on the use of three diesel vehicles of different brands and displacements, since the device claims to be compatible with any diesel vehicle, regardless of brand, year and displacement. To evaluate its effectiveness, dynamometric and field tests were carried out, analyzing the performance parameters before and during the installation of the device. Additionally, factors such as fuel quality and driving conditions described in this article will be considered to provide a comprehensive analysis of the impact of the device in various operating situations. Finally, it is determined that the Nitro OBD2 device is accessible at a reasonable price, but it did not meet the expectations promised by the manufacturer, the impact it had on the torque and power of the vehicles evaluated was very null.
