Abstract:
A nozzle air injection system adapted to selectively provide compressed air to a fuel-injected engine, thereby improving power output from the engine, comprising:a controller, wherein a control algorithm is stored on said controller, further wherein said controller operates in response to said control algorithm; an engine speed sensor in communication with said controller, wherein said engine speed sensor collects engine speed data and communicates said speed data to said controller; a throttle position sensor in communication with said controller, wherein said throttle position sensor collects throttle position data and communicates said throttle position data to said controller; a power regulator in communication with and under the control of said controller; an electric motor in electrical communication with said power regulator; and an air compressor connected to said electric motor, wherein said controller is adapted to communicate instructions to said power regulator under the direction of said control algorithm, wherein said power regulator is in communication with an electrical power source, said regulator is adapted to send or cut off a varying electrical current to said motor according to instructions received from said controller.
