This document is the instruction manual for the research engine test setup, which consists of a single cylinder four-stroke multi-fuel research engine connected to an eddy current type dynamometer for loading. The engine operation mode can be changed from diesel to ECU Petrol or from ECU Petrol to Diesel mode by following some procedural steps. In both modes, the compression ratio can be varied without stopping the engine and without altering the combustion chamber geometry by specially designed tilting cylinder block arrangement. In Diesel mode, fuel injection point and pressure can be manipulated for research tests. In Petrol mode, fuel injection time, fuel injection angle, ignition angle can be programmed with open ECU at each operating point based on RPM and throttle position. It helps in optimizing engine performance throughout its operating range. Air temp, coolant temp, Throttle position and trigger sensor are connected to Open ECU which control ignition coil, fuel injector, fuel pump and idle air. Set up is provided with necessary instruments for combustion pressure, Diesel line pressure and crank-angle measurements. These signals are interfaced with computer for pressure measurement.
