Engine Performance for 4-H STEM Education

Author: Timothy Stombaugh

Planning Unit: Biosystems & Agr Engineering

Major Program: Science, Engineering, and Technology

Outcome: Initial Outcome

Significant changes have been made recently to vehicle engine technology and alternative fuel availability.  This program gave 4-H students the opportunity to explore the impact of engine technology and alternative fuels on engine performance and emissions.  Students used modern dynamometer and emissions instrumentation to measure power and emissions output of different engines operating on several different alternative fuels.
