Aplicación e implementación de un flujómetro para la preparación de vehículos de competición en el laboratorio especializado de automotriz.

Abstract

In the Specialized Laboratory of the Degree in Automotive Engineering of the Faculty of Mechanics of the Polytechnic High School of Chimborazo, a flowmeter was implemented, which was built in the city of Riobamba. This flowmeter was constructed with materials of easy access, for its construction wood was used, elements of subjection, elements of control, an electric motor was acquired and a turbine with its casing was constructed from a steel plate of 8mm following the planes The flowmeter is a tool that provides automotive engineers and students with the primary data needed to make modifications to the parts of the vehicle's power, combustion and exhaust system. All the requirements so that whoever is in the front can operate it without any inconvenience and with all the security measures. The flowmeter was implemented with the purpose of encouraging and reinforcing the knowledge of the following generations of students of the Automotive Engineering career, contributing to the coalition of theoretical instructions with practical instructions, in such a way as to serve as a tool for the teacher to Increase the development of students' skills and abilities so that they can respond to the skills required of today's working world. This work achieved the construction and implementation of a machine capable of maintaining a control of the modifications to the parts that form a fundamental part of the fuel, combustion and exhaust system of an internal combustion engine. It is recommended to use the flowmeter as a base tool for proposals for redesigning the engine's power, combustion and exhaust system components.
