Diseño, construcción e Implementación de un detector de fugas para los sistemas: control de emisiones evaporativas, lubricación, admisión y escape, para la Escuela de Ingeniería Automotriz de la ESPOCH.

Abstract

The main objective of this project is to design, build and implement a leak detection system for evaporative emission control (EVAP), admission, lubricating and exhaust. We investigated its operation, its components and corrective maintenance to take place from internal combustion engine fuel. Their basic systems, anti-pollution system which compose it and its respective leak analysis. The analysis of gaseous pollutants produced by vehicles using internal combustion engines as a means of propulsion, and its harmful effects to the environment, human and socio-economic, due to the above research, was conducted of the different methods used in leak detection, selecting smoke generation by combustion of Vaseline oil, giving as a result, smoke easily visible to the human eye and the use of compressed air pressurizes the smoke into the systems of internal combustion engine. The result is a leak detector useful and versatile that will help the diagnosis of leaks in the emission control systems, lubrication, intake and exhaust, also underwent the test runs on different types of vehicles resulting in the generation of several recommendations based on the results of tests performed. In addition, a manual of procedures and practice guidelines for the proper use of diagnostic equipment from Automotive engineering students of the ESPOCH.
