ECU Calibration & Performance Tuning of 4-Stroke Engines

Performed ECU calibration to refine fuel, ignition, and various engine parameters and control systems.
Reviewed and interpreted engine datalogs to assess control system behavior and guide calibration refinement.
Modeled structural engine components in Autodesk Inventor and produced functional 3D-printed prototypes.

Inertia Dynamometer Design & Fabrication

Engineered an inertia dynamometer with integrated hall-effect and ignition pickup sensors for synchronized rotor and engine RPM measurement.
Implemented a Raspberry Pi control system to compute engine torque output from acceleration data and visualize performance metrics in real time.

Study of Intake Geometry Effects on Engine Volumetric Efficiency (In Progress)

Investigating how variations of intake runner length and geometry influence VE in spark-ignition engines.
Preparing experiments using an inertia dynamometer to measure the impact of runner length, including potential ram-effect benefits.
