Spanish term or phrase: Carga de acelerador
Hi there,

I'm struggling with the term "carga de acelerador", used twice in the following segment:

La válvula se abrirá más o menos, en función a lo preestablecido en la unidad de control del motor por medio de unos parámetros basados en la temperatura de motor, la carga de acelerador y el régimen. Por norma general la válvula EGR se abre con baja carga de acelerador, a bajo régimen y con el motor en caliente. No suelen actuar en frío o cuando el motor requiere más potencia, puesto que su propio funcionamiento produce una ligera pérdida de la misma.

It is talking about truck engines, more specifically Exhaust Gas Recirculation systems.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Example sentence(s):
  • Yo entiendo que el consumo está basado únicamente en la cantidad de combustible inyectado, por tanto esto va asociado a la carga de acelerador (cuanto más pises el pedal, más combustible está inyectando).
