What are the main functions of automotive components (solenoid valve components)
Solenoid valve is a key component of automobile, which plays different roles in different systems, mainly including the following aspects:
1. engine management system
Fuel injection control: correctly control fuel injection quantity and injection time. For example, in the electronically controlled fuel injection system, by receiving the signal from the engine control unit (ECU), the solen
Solenoid valve is a key component of automobile, which plays different roles in different systems, mainly including the following aspects:
1. engine management system
Fuel injection control: correctly control fuel injection quantity and injection time. For example, in the electronically controlled fuel injection system, by receiving the signal from the engine control unit (ECU), the solenoid valve opens or closes the fuel injection nozzle, and injects an appropriate amount of fuel into the intake manifold or cylinder according to the working conditions of the engine (such as speed, load, etc.), so as to achieve good fuel atomization and combustion effect, improve fuel economy and reduce exhaust emissions.
Intake control: control the opening time and lift of intake valve. In some variable valve timing systems (VVT), the solenoid valve adjusts the oil pressure to control the phase of the camshaft according to the operating conditions of the engine, so as to change the opening time and duration of the inlet valve, so that the engine can obtain the appropriate intake volume under different working conditions, and improve the engine power performance and fuel efficiency.
2. automatic transmission system
Shift control: control the hydraulic oil circuit in the transmission to realize the switching of different gears. When the vehicle is driving, the automatic transmission control unit will send commands to the corresponding solenoid valve according to the vehicle speed, throttle opening and other signals. The solenoid valve drives the shift clutch and brake to work by controlling the flow direction and pressure of hydraulic oil, so that the transmission can switch smoothly between different gears, ensuring the driving performance and comfort of the vehicle.
Oil pressure adjustment: correctly adjust the hydraulic oil pressure in the transmission. In automatic transmission, it is necessary to provide appropriate oil pressure according to different working conditions (such as shifting, torque transmission, etc.). The oil pressure regulating solenoid valve adjusts the pressure of the hydraulic oil in real time according to the signal of the control unit, so as to ensure the normal operation of all components in the transmission, prevent slip, impact and other phenomena, and extend the service life of the transmission.
3. braking system
Anti lock braking system (ABS): prevent wheel locking during braking. When the vehicle is braked, the ABS control unit will monitor the rotational speed of the wheels. Once a wheel is found to have a tendency to lock, it will send a signal to the solenoid valve in the brake pipeline of the wheel. The solenoid valve can adjust the pressure in the brake pipeline by opening and closing quickly to keep the wheels close to locking but not locked. This can ensure that the vehicle still has good steering ability when braking and improve driving safety.
Electronic Stability Program (ESP): assist the vehicle to keep stable driving. During vehicle driving, ESP system monitors vehicle driving status through sensors, such as vehicle speed, steering angle, lateral acceleration, etc. When the vehicle is detected to have unstable trends such as sideslip and tail flick, the ESP control unit will control the solenoid valve in the brake pipeline of the corresponding wheel, and correctly adjust the braking force of each wheel to restore the vehicle to a stable driving state.
4. other systems
Air conditioning system: controls the clutch of the air conditioning compressor. In the automotive air conditioning system, when refrigeration is required, the air conditioning control unit will send a signal to the solenoid valve. After the solenoid valve is energized, it will pull in the clutch of the air conditioning compressor to make the compressor start working, drive the refrigerant to circulate in the air conditioning system, and realize the refrigeration function. When refrigeration is not required, the solenoid valve is powered off, the clutch is disengaged, and the compressor stops working, saving energy.
Turbocharging system: controls the pressure of turbocharging. In turbocharged engines, the solenoid valve is used to control the opening of the wastegate. When the engine load is low, the solenoid valve controls the bypass valve to open, so that part of the waste gas is discharged directly through the bypass pipe without passing through the turbine, so as to reduce the speed of the turbine and avoid excessive boost pressure; When the engine is under heavy load, the solenoid valve controls the bypass valve to close, so that all the exhaust gases pass through the turbine, driving the turbine to rotate at high speed, increasing the boost pressure, increasing the air intake of the engine, and improving the power performance of the engine.
