Engine drag torque control prevents your wheels locking on slippery surfaces if you take your foot off the accelerator suddenly or shift down a gear fast. The braking effect of the engine can cause the driven wheels to skid when they temporarily lose traction. In such situations, engine drag torque control maintains directional stability and boosts safety. The system's control unit receives information from the wheel-speed sensors and the engine control unit or transmission control unit via the CAN data bus. If it detects wheel slip, it sends a signal to the engine control unit to increase engine torque, until the driven wheels are turning at a rate appropriate to the car's speed. This keeps your car steerable and maintains directional stability.

What is an aerodynamic drag?
When you are driving on the freeway, most of the work your engine does goes into pushing the car through the air. This force is known as aerodynamic drag...
How do you control the drag from increasing on aircraft?
using controller to control it.. decrease weight to reduce drag
How does an idle control valve work?
The idle control valve works by regulating the idle speed of the engine. The idle speed of the engine is usually controlled by the engine of the computer.
How do you remove a speed limiter on a S-10?
You can not because it is programmed into the engine control computor. You can go a shop that programs computors for drag or race cars.

the force engine that opposes drag and is powered by combustion reactions in the engine is?
thrust
What are the applications of thermal engineering in automobile industries?
Engine heat transfer and work done analysis , reducing drag in vehicles , turbulence modelling of flow
Where are the main areas where drag can effect your car?
The engine.
How can the speed of a boat be increased?
Get a bigger engine. Or keep current engine and reduce drag
As a twin engine boat moves through the water with one engine stopped does the idle propeller induce more drag when stopped or when free wheeling?
The propeller would induce more drag if it was locked. Keep it spinning and you will lessen the drag
What does a idle control valve do when engine warm up?
yes they do because to make it work it has to be running
How do you play drag race when i play drag race my engine is blowing how to protect engine for blowing?
when yellow light appear on your screen at that time hit insert key on your laptop. :)
