Course Description

The following contents are learned regarding the electronically controlled gasoline engine for automobiles.
(1)Function and structure of reciprocating engine.
(2)Function and structure of each sensor and actuator for electronic control of the engine.
(3)Engine disassembly process and assembly process.
In this lesson, knowledge, techniques, and attitudes regarding DP 2 will be acquired.
Lessons are primarily practice-style.

Course Objectives

Students can apply specific cases to concerning structures, functions and operations of each part of electronically controlled gasoline engines for automobiles. The engine disassembly process and assembly process can be applied to concrete cases.

Grading Policy

The grade evaluation is based on the final exam 100%, but it will be evaluated by deducting the attitude in the lessons. The lessons attitude is to be able to observe the "safety instructions in the first lessons, and the instructions on clothes and other matters in the practical training".
