MODIFICATION OF A FOURTH GENERATION LPG INSTALLATION IMPROVING THE POWER SUPPLY TO A SPARK IGNITION ENGINE

Fourth generation LPG installations are fuel systems which, apart from their obvious advantages, have numerous disadvantages. One of their weaker elements are the injectors, or rather their improper performance. It was therefore justified to undertake a modification of the alternative fuel system in order to improve its work. The modification itself was preceded by a series of bench and road studies. A mathematical model of the injector was developed, which was later used in simulations. The results of the tests enabled the preparation the fuel system modification project involving the introduction of additional injectors and a system that controls their work. The complete unit was installed in a test vehicle and the modification's effect on the fuel supply process is presented in the results of conducted tests.
