defeat device
To learn about this word, I did a search – does that count as an external link? http://auto.sohu.com/20150925/n422084410.shtml
How to translate this? I need some expert advice.
I’ve posted it for you. In principle, a \"defeat device\" determines whether the vehicle is on a test bench by checking whether the steering wheel is moving, the engine’s operation status, and the atmospheric pressure. The first two points are relatively easy to understand. As for air pressure, it is likely that when the car is in motion, the air flow speed around the sensor is high, resulting in lower air pressure. While indoors, it is at rest, and the air pressure is the standard atmospheric pressure. Additionally, there is a theory that the ECU determines whether it is in laboratory conditions by checking whether the non-driving wheels are rotating (in the U.S. EPA laboratories, the vehicle is lifted off the ground so that only the driving wheels rotate). When the \"defeat device\" detects that the vehicle is under inspection, it comes into action, and the exhaust after-treatment system operates at full capacity in order to meet the emission standards set by the EPA. If Volkswagen can meet the emission standards, then why cheat? The reason is that \"meeting emission standards\" comes at the cost of reduced performance, and we have explained this principle before. 「The history of the \"defeat device\" In fact, the definition of a \"defeat device\" is not limited to code, nor is it a new concept. In the 1970s, both Chrysler and Volkswagen (again, Volkswagen) were involved with something called a \"defeat device.\" To understand this part of history, I read the Wall Street Journal from that time period. In 1972, officials from the U.S. EPA discovered that vehicles manufactured by Chrysler had three small valves used to shut down the exhaust treatment system at specific times. Chrysler’s engineers reluctantly explained to the EPA that what they had was merely a \"defeat device,\" one that was used only at startup, and that its impact on nitrogen oxide emissions during that starting phase was minimal. Without this device, the car owner has to tolerate black smoke emissions. It was probably at that time that the term \"defeat device\" was used for the first time. As a result of this matter, the EPA ordered Chrysler to recall the affected vehicles and move one of the temperature sensors from the engine firewall to the radiator. Chrysler did as requested, but stated that this would lead to mechanical defects. After the recall, this temperature sensor indeed stopped working, leading to many complaints from car owners. In 1973, it was Volkswagen that was investigated this time, and the EPA announced that Volkswagen had also violated the Clean Air Act as well as other relevant EPA regulations. According to the EPA’s description, Volkswagen did not explicitly state that it used a temperature sensor capable of controlling the exhaust purification system in those 4 models from 1973. This sensor can control the exhaust gas purification system and adjust the air-fuel ratio at lower temperatures.
What does it mean in the chemical industry? ? ?
Defeat Device has different Chinese translations: defeat device/reduction device. . . Wait. My personal favorite Chinese translation is “failure device””
“What about “detection evaders”, that is, devices for avoiding detection?
