Research on Real-Time Fuel Consumption Measurement in Internal-Combustion Engines

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new technique was devised to deal with real-time fuel consumption measurement in internal-combustion engines, where fuel circulation flow is much larger than the consumption rate. With extensive experiments and error analysis method, the fuel mass flow measurement had been realized by a improved turbine flow sensor with temperature compensation. The real-time accurate fuel consumption measurement had been achieved through data processing and real flow parameter matching method. The results showed that the prototype measurement precision was 1.0 class, satisfying practical measurement requirements.
