Abstract:The FED-SAVER program refined and continued the development of an in-cylinder, high temperature pressure sensor by demonstrating that it can be successfully inserted into diesel engines for routine feedback control of each individual cylinder. There were two major goals for this program. Successfully accomplished, these showed that the sensors can be developed into an engine monitoring and control device with potential to significantly reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency. The first goal was to revise and refine the MEMS sensing element die. The second goal was the implementation of the second generation packaging concept (Gen 2). The revised package will enable easy integration of the sensor into the engine. Sensors were tested both under simulated and diesel engine conditions.
