  • Patent number: 8938080
    Abstract: A method for generating engine acoustic emissions including the steps of providing a loudspeaker configuration (100) based upon the configuration of said engine, and feeding the said loudspeaker configuration (100) with signals for providing desired engine acoustic emission. Also a device, a computer program and a computer program product for performing the method.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6923046
    Abstract: The pressure in a cylinder of a combustion engine is determined on the basis of vibrations in the engine which are generated during movement of the piston. A vibration signal (S) from a vibration sensor situated on a cylinder is filtered in the region about the piston top dead center position, at the transition from compression to expansion, in a special filter in which a half Hanning filter acts upon the vibration signal before and an exponential filter acts upon the vibration signal after the piston top dead center position. The filtered signal (U) is thereafter converted to a pressure signal (P) on the basis of an established relationship between vibration and pressure. The half Hanning filter has a significantly shorter time window (TH) than the exponential filter (TE). The filter cleans the vibration signal in an advantageous manner and makes more reliable pressure determination possible.

    Abstract: The pressure in a cylinder of a combustion engine is determined on the basis of vibrations in the engine which are generated during movement of the piston. A vibration signal (S) from a vibration sensor (4) situated on a cylinder is filtered in the region about the piston's top dead centre position, at the transition from compression to expansion, in a special filter (6) in which a half Hanning filter acts upon the vibration signal after the piston's top dead centre position. The filtered signal (U) is thereafter converted to a pressure signal (P) on the basis of an established relationship between vibration and pressure. The half Hanning filter has a significantly shorter time window (TH) than the exponential filter. The novel filter (6) cleans the vibration signal in an advantageous manner and makes more reliable pressure determination possible.
