EFI Books and Papers in my Library

[Zublin, Bryan (SD-MS)]

I thought that I would make a list of the books and papers that I own that 
are
related to EFI.  I think that this can be added to the reference list; some 
of
these are duplicates.

Flow Meter for Engine Control Systems_, SAE paper 900258, 1990, ISSN 
0148-7191.
(The authors are from Hitachi Ltd.  This paper discusses a new type of wire
probe, resulting in improved response time.)

Rohde, Siegfried, and Philipp, Matthias, _Combined Boost Pressure and Knock
Control System for S.I. Engines Including 3-D Maps for Control Parameters_,
SAE paper 890459, 1989, ISSN 0148-7191.  (Reprinted from SP-780, _Power

control; good info on control methods.)

Nishimura, Yutaka; Ohyama, Yoshishige; et al., _A Hot Wire Air Flow Meter 
for
Intake Air Flow Measurement_, SAE paper 890301, 1989, ISSN 0148-7191.
(The authors are from Hitachi, Ltd.  This paper "outlines the development
status of the Hitachi hot wire air flow meter."  Also covered are 
"approaches
to improve response time" and "to avoid deterioration in the measurement
accuracy caused by dirt deposits on the hot wire probe.")

Tanimoto, Kohji; Bessho, Mikio; Inada, Masanori; _Switching Controlled 
Thermal
Mass Air Flow Sensor_, SAE paper 890298, 1989, ISSN 0148-7191.  (Reprinted 
from
SP-771 - _Sensors and Actuators: 1989_.  Authors are from Mitsubishi 
Electric.
This paper discusses a typical MAF meter using a switching transistor to
supply the voltage to the heated wire.  This reduces power consumption.  The
output of the meter is a digital signal, with the pulse width related to the
flow rate.  One advantage of  this type of meter is that the EFI computer
does not need an analog to digital converter to acquire the data - it can 
use
a digital counter.)

Sumai, Jaihind, and Sauer, Rudolf, _Bosch Mass Air Flow Meter: Status and
Further Aspects_, SAE paper 840137, 1984.  (The authors are from Bosch. 
 This
paper discusses flow passages, air flow around the thermal element, use of
wire grid in the air flow stream, mechanical forces on the sensor element,
dirt build up on the thermal sensor element, response rate, velocity 
profiles,
and influence of altitude on intake manifold pulsations.  Actual test data 
is
provided.)

Nishimura, Yutaka; Ohyama, Yoshishige; Sasayama, Takao; et al., _Hot Wire 
Air
Flow Meter for Engine Control System_, SAE paper 830615, 1983, ISSN 
0148-7191.
(The authors are from Hitachi Ltd.  This paper describes the Hitachi type 
MAF,
which measures air flow in a bypass air passage.  I believe that this type 
of
MAF is being used on Ford cars, starting with the Mustang GT in 1987.)

Sauer, Rudolf, _Hot Wire Air Mass Meter - A New Air Flow Meter for Gasoline
Fuel Injection Systems_, SAE paper 800468, 1980, ISSN 0148-7191.
(The author is from Bosch.  This paper appears to be one of the first on MAF
meters - the classical Bosch design with the thin platinum wire in the 
direct
air flow.  It has many equations explaining its operation.)
