Fault simulator of car engine

Abstract

Fault simulator of a car engine is a E-training system developed to guide the beginners about various faults of an engine. There are parameters called engine faults such as, Dirty oil, poor compression, coolant loss, poor lubrication, clogged radiator, Spark knock and worn spark plug. Any system when comes to existence has some faults and limitations. Hence, to understand these faults and how to diagnose them this fault simulator is developed using LabVIEW which have following different panels: The Main panel, About faults panel, Normal conditions panel, Guide panels, Fault simulator panel and Trainer kit panel. A trainer kit is made using virtual instruments such as switches and indicators in LabVIEW which will guide user to follow the required sequence of events to be performed.
