Construcción e implementación de un módulo didáctico del sistema de encendido sin distribuidor tipo COP como recurso de aprendizaje para el Instituto Superior Tecnológico Vida Nueva.

Abstract

Direct fuel injection systems, as well as newly developed engines, are incorporating specially designed coils to increase spark energy and extend spark life. This project shows the design of the construction of a didactic bench of COP Coil On Plug ignition systems, which responds to the need of linking theory with practice and aims to improve the learning of automotive mechanics students of the Instituto Tecnológico Vida Nueva. In the first instance, an investigative bibliographic study was carried out in order to know the subject and to have a broader and deeper vision of the characteristics, advances and elements of the COP ignition systems, their evolution and transformation. The exploratory qualitative methodology was used to determine the factors that should be covered with the construction of the module for the institution. The existence of these elements in the market was identified in order to choose the adequate and commercial elements for the construction of the didactic module with which the size and distribution of elements was designed and formed, taking into account the characteristics of each system, the equipment was assembled to simulate the operation of the COP ignition systems. The coil configuration has a transformer with a primary winding and a secondary winding around an iron core, which allows to increase the voltage necessary for the spark jump in the engine cylinders.
