Engine manifolds

Pressure sensors present a potential reliability problem when pressure signals originate from harsh environments, such as that in an engine manifold or in an automotive tire.

Up to 25% by weight of the relatively pure recycled nylon is compounded with virgin nylon and reinforcements and is sold commercially as an injection molding resin. This resin with recycled content is not cheaper than virgin nylon due to the cost of separation and purification. While it is used to make engine manifolds, it is not sold in sufficient quantities to divert much carpet from landfills. Therefore, less pure and potentially less expensive composite materials and products based on post-consumer carpet are considered next. 

Smart Pressure Transmitters for Automatic Control Systems. Wireless pressure sensors are used in remote apphcations such as weather sensing. Modem automobiles incorporate tire pressure transmitters. Manifold pressure sensors send instantaneous readings of the pressure inside automobile engine manifolds so that a control computer can calculate the best rate of fuel flow to achieve the most efficient combustion. Smart pressure transmitters incorporating capacitance-type...

The high GSA achieved allows the volume of the substrate to be reduced. By reducing the volume, the substrate can be positioned closer to the engine manifold and the...
