Abstract: An air conditioning system includes an air conditioner run by electric power, a storage battery, a demand receiver, an air-conditioning controller and a control selector. The storage battery charges electric power and supplies stored electric power to the air conditioner. The demand receiver receives a demand pertaining to a power consumption of the air conditioner during a predetermined period. The air-conditioning controller performs air-conditioning restriction control, which is preset when there is a need to restrict operation of the air conditioner in order to satisfy the demand, even when electric power is supplied from the storage battery to the air conditioner in the predetermined period. The control selector enables selection of the air-conditioning restriction control from among a plurality of control patterns.

Abstract: An air conditioning system includes an electrically run air conditioner with a compressor, a storage battery that charges and supplies electric power, a demand receiver, an air-conditioning controller, and a charging controller controlling charging of the storage battery. The demand receiver receives a demand pertaining to a power consumption of the air conditioner during a predetermined period. The air-conditioning controller stores operation-associated information pertaining to operation of the air conditioner and controls the air conditioner. The air-conditioning controller causes the air conditioner to perform precooling and/or reduce the power consumption of the air conditioner in the predetermined period based on the demand and an amount of charge of the storage battery.

Abstract: A fuel injection control apparatus which infers fuel temperature from cooling water temperature and intake air temperature. From these inferred temperatures, a correction coefficient of the air-fuel ratio is found from the inferred fuel temperature and the intake manifold pressure by using data stored in a map. The map is set up so that a characteristic thereof shows that, the higher the inferred temperature of fuel, the larger the correction coefficient of the air-fuel ratio and, thus, the longer the fuel injection time. Subsequently, an ineffective injection time TV is corrected in accordance with the inferred fuel temperature. A fuel injection time TI is then computed from a basic injection time TP, a representative correction coefficient Ftotal representing all correction coefficients including the correction coefficient of the air-fuel ratio, and the ineffective injection time TV.

Abstract: In a fuel pump driving apparatus for a vehicle engine including a fuel injection system, the selection of a plurality of energizing circuits each formed by the combination of two or all of three brushes of a fuel pump drive motor is effected in accordance with the load conditions of the engine, thereby changing the rotational speed of the motor and hence the fuel quantity delivered from the fuel pump. When the occurrence of a fault in one of the energizing circuits is detected, the driver is informed of the occurrence of the fault and in addition a faulty-condition controller controls switching means in such a manner that the drive motor is energized through another one of the energizing circuits.
