The data measurement and reduction system for the Pouliot variable displacement engine uses a Hewlett Packard 2114A minicomputer. The raw data are processed to compute the horsepower, air-fuel ratio, equivalence ratio, brake specific fuel consumption, and brake specific emissions of unburned hydrocarbons, oxides of nitrogen, and carbon monoxide. Emissions are checked for consistency by applying the chemical equilibrium theory of Spindt.
