An evaporation gas active purge system may include a purge line of connecting a canister for absorbing an evaporation gas of a fuel tank to an intake pipe; a purge pump mounted on the purge line; a purge valve mounted on the purge line to be disposed between the purge pump and the intake pipe; a pressure sensor mounted on the purge line to be disposed between the purge pump and the purge valve; and a control unit of receiving a signal from the pressure sensor, and transmitting an operating signal to the purge pump and the purge valve, wherein the control unit controls the purge pump and the purge valve by an engine condition and a vehicle speed.

A flowmeter is inserted into a main passage through which a target fluid flows. The flowmeter includes a housing, a sub passage, an inlet portion, an outlet portion, a flow rate detector, and a protrusion. The housing includes a side surface and a tip end surface. A part of the target fluid flows into the sub passage from the main passage. The target fluid flows into the sub passage through the inlet portion and flows out of the sub passage through the outlet portion. The flow rate detector is configured to detect a flow rate of the target fluid flowing through the sub passage. The tip end surface includes a first end area and a second end area. The protrusion protrudes from the tip end surface and is located in both the first end area and the second end area.

A flowmeter is disposed in a passage through which a fluid flows. The flowmeter includes a first passage and a second passage. The first passage defines an opening through which a part of the fluid flows into the flowmeter from the passage. The second passage branches off from the first passage and includes a flow rate detector configured to detect a flow rate of the fluid flowing through the second passage from the first passage. The second passage has one end at which the second passage branches off from the first passage and the other end. The second passage includes at least one end opening at the other end and an inflow reducer configured to restrict the fluid from flowing into the second passage through the at least one end opening.

A system including a solvent in fluid communication with the air intake valves of an internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine generating a vacuum to cause the solvent to disperse into the air intake manifold of the internal combustion engine.

An opposed-piston engine includes an electronic sensor located in a charge air channel, at position between an outlet of a charge air cooler and an air intake component that distributes charge air to cylinder intake ports of the engine. The electronic sensor is disposed to measure a rate of mass airflow between the outlet of the charge air cooler and the intake component and generate electronic signals indicative of the rate of mass airflow from the charge air cooler. A control mechanization of the opposed-piston engine is electrically connected to the electronic sensor for controlling air handling devices, fuel provisioning devices, and/or EGR devices in response to the electronic signals.

Provided is a flow rate measuring device including a connector portion, a main body portion, an internal flow passage, and a flow rate detection element. The internal flow passage includes a main flow passage and a sub-flow passage. The sub-flow passage includes a flow rate detection element-side flow passage and connection flow passages. The main flow passage includes an introduction portion, a small flow passage sectional area portion, and an exit portion. The connection flow passages include an upstream-side connection flow passage and a downstream-side connection flow passage. The main flow passage and the flow rate detection element-side flow passage are formed so as to be symmetric with respect to a plane having a flow direction of the fluid to be measured flowing through the pipe as a normal. The main flow passage has a portion at the plane of symmetry as the small flow passage sectional area portion.

A cold air intake system is provided for actively controlling airflow based upon user input and/or demand conditions. Two air inlets are provided into a sealed air box with the secondary air intake including an air control valve for modulating intrusion of intake air. The valve has a valve seat formed the housing sidewall and a flap door valve member actively actuated via a controller. The mass air flow sensor indicates total demand. A pressure sensor and a temperature sensor provide additional input from the airbox. The controller modifies the valve position based upon pressure, temperature and mass air flow. Control is biased to increase secondary air intake when airbox pressure decreases and biased to decrease secondary air intake when airbox temperature increases. Controller biasing occurs between 30° F. to 160° F. and over pressure ranges between 0.01″ H.sub.2O to 5″ H.sub.2O.

A convergent nozzle is in a mixer housing and in a flow path from an air inlet of the mixer to an outlet of the mixer. A convergent-divergent nozzle is in the mixer housing and includes an air-exhaust gas inlet in fluid communication to receive fluid flow from the convergent nozzle and from the interior of the exhaust gas housing. A first nozzle module is configured to be received in the mixer housing and, when received in the mixer housing, define at least a portion of the convergent nozzle or the convergent-divergent nozzle. A second nozzle module is configured to be received in the mixer housing separate from the first nozzle module. The second nozzle module, when received in the mixer housing, is configured to define at least a portion of the convergent or the convergent-divergent nozzle. The second nozzle module has a different flow characteristic than the first nozzle module.

A rectification structural body includes a pipe line configured such that air flows from an air cleaner to an airflow sensor. The pipe line has a portion bent in an arc shape. In the pipe line, an air guide plate dividing an internal space of the pipe line into an inner portion and an outer portion of the arc is provided substantially parallel with the center line of the pipe line. The air guide plate includes two ribs. The two ribs are each in an arc shape. The two ribs stand, inside the pipe line, facing each other to extend toward each other. End edges of the two ribs are separated from each other in a rib standing direction by 0.5 to 5 mm at least on an airflow sensor side of the pipe line.

A system including a solvent in fluid communication with the air intake valves of an internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine generating a vacuum to cause the solvent to disperse into the air intake manifold of the internal combustion engine.
