| 发明名称 | Oil life monitoring system with fuel quality factor | ||
| 摘要 | An oil-life monitoring system includes an engine revolution counter configured to provide an output corresponding to the rotation of a component of an engine, and a controller in communication with the engine revolution counter. The controller is configured to determine the composition/properties of a fuel being combusted by the engine, and select a fuel quality penalty factor from a table, with the fuel quality penalty factor corresponding to the determined composition/properties of the fuel. Additionally, the controller is configured to compute an adjusted revolution count by multiplying the rotations of the component of the engine by the fuel quality penalty factor, and aggregate the adjusted revolution count. | ||

An oil-life monitoring system comprising: an engine revolution counter configured to provide an output corresponding to the rotation of a component of an engine; and a controller in communication with the engine revolution counter and configured to: determine the composition of a fuel being combusted by the engine;select a fuel quality penalty factor from a table, the fuel quality penalty factor corresponding to the determined composition of the fuel;compute an adjusted revolution count by multiplying the rotations of the component of the engine by the fuel quality penalty factor; andaggregate the adjusted revolution count for use in determining remaining oil-life. | ||
