Monitoring system for identifying an engine bank with a malfunctioning fuel injector
11459972 · 2022-10-04 · ·

A monitoring system obtains sensor data associated with operation of an engine, of a machine, that includes a first engine bank with a first set of fuel injectors and a second engine bank with a second set of fuel injectors. The monitoring system determines, based on the sensor data, a first temperature value that is representative of temperature differences between the first engine bank and the second engine bank for a period of time when the engine operated in a particular operation state, and a second temperature value that is representative of temperature differences between the first engine bank and the second engine bank for one or more prior periods of time when the engine operated in the particular operation state. The monitoring system determines, based on the first temperature value and the second temperature value, that a fuel injector malfunction condition occurred during the period of time.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENGINE AIR FILTER SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS

A method for diagnosing an air filter status includes receiving, by a controller, sensor data indicative of a mass air flow rate, an air temperature and an air pressure of an air cleaner assembly including an air filter, determining an air filter life remaining from the sensor data, and receiving data indicative of a vehicle condition. The method also includes determining when a first condition is satisfied and when true, triggering an air filter leakage alert. When the first condition is not satisfied, the controller determines when a second condition is satisfied. When the second condition is satisfied, the controller determines when a third condition is satisfied, and when the third condition is satisfied, triggers an air filter snow intrusion alert. When the second condition is satisfied and the third condition is not satisfied the controller triggers an air filter blockage alert.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FUEL FILTER MONITORING

A fuel filter monitoring method includes receiving pressure signals that are indicative of a pressure drop across at least one fuel filter of a fuel supply system configured to supply fuel to at least one fuel injector of an internal combustion engine and receiving a condition signal indicative of a condition of a fuel supply system, the condition signal being generated by one or more of a geographic location sensor, an altitude sensor, and/or a fuel temperature sensor. The method includes estimating a remaining life of at least one fuel filter of the fuel supply system based on the pressure signal and the condition signal and outputting a notification indicative of the estimated remaining life.

Abnormality diagnosis system for fuel supply system, data transmitting device, and abnormality diagnosis device

An abnormality diagnosis system is applied to a fuel supply system including a fuel pump that pumps fuel from a fuel tank and a fuel pipe in which fuel discharged from the fuel pump flows. The abnormality diagnosis system stores a minimum fuel pressure in the fuel pipe in one trip after a main switch of the fuel supply system is turned on and until the main switch is turned off and data indicating a state when the minimum fuel pressure was recorded as diagnosis data in a storage device. In the abnormality diagnosis system, an execution device determines a failure spot associated with a decrease in fuel pressure in the fuel pipe using the diagnosis data stored in the storage device and diagnoses an abnormality of the fuel supply system.
