In 2011, the United States of America imported 45% of its petroleum from other nations [1]. In addition, efforts are being made to identify more eco-friendly options for fuel to serve as gasoline alternatives. One such fuel, which could decrease the United State dependence on foreign oil while helping the environment, is natural gas. An abundance of natural gas is found in the United States, and the burning of natural gas in internal combustion engines (ICE) releases less pollution and greenhouse gas emissions than gasoline. One of the most complex parts of natural gas ICE is the electronic fuel injection system. These systems are controlled by an electronic control unit (ECU), which is essential for optimizing engine efficiency, performance and emissions. The goal of this research was to reconfigure a hybrid-electric vehicle for compressed natural gas usage. ! ! "! ! ! ! !

We would also like to thank Barbara Fuhrman of the Mechanical Engineering Office for her help in acquiring material for our project and her dedication to our success. Additionally, we would like to thank Ian Anderson and James Loiselle, as well as the entirety of the Washburn Shops staff, for their help during our manufacturing processes. 1 | P a g e Abstract Cars are a significant source of carbon emissions into the atmosphere and with a growing number of cars on the road, this is negatively affecting the atmosphere. The carbon emissions cars emit comes from the gasoline being burned in the engine. While battery/electrics provide one solution, energy density and speed of refueling are favorable with internal combustion engines. A potential candidate for replacing hydrocarbons as the fuel for combustion engines is ammonia. A molecule of ammonia is composed of one nitrogen atom and three hydrogen atoms producing nitrogen gas and water upon combustion. Neither product of combustion is harmful to our environment and the ammonia itself can be produced through “green” renewable energy processes. Using a small engine from a snow blower, we aimed to modify the engine to run off of ammonia as the fuel source.
  • Fuel Intake System Intake Manifolds

    Fuel Intake System Intake Manifolds

    Fuel Intake System Below is an overview of the fuel system intake operation Intake Manifolds An intake manifold is a system of passages which conduct the fuel mixture from the carburetor to the intake valves of the engine. Manifold design has much to do with the efficient operation of an engine. For smooth and even operation, the fuel charge taken into each cylinder should be of the same strength and quality. Distribution of the fuel should, therefore, be as even as possible. This depends greatly upon the design of the intake manifold. Dry fuel vapor is an ideal form of fuel charge, but present-day fuel prevents this unless the mixture is subjected to high temperature. If the fuel charge is heated too highly, the power of the engine is reduced because the heat expands the fuel charge. Therefore, it is better to have some of the fuel deposited on the walls of the cylinders and manifold vents. Manifolds in modern engines are designed so that the amount of fuel condensing on the intake manifold walls is reduced to a minimum. In a V-8 engine, the intake manifold is mounted between the cylinder heads. The L- head engine's manifold is bolted to the side of the block, and the I-head manifold is bolted to the cylinder head. Ram Induction Manifolds The ram induction manifold system consists of twin air cleaners, twin four-barrel carburetors and two manifolds containing eight long tubes of equal length (four for each manifold). This system was designed by the Chrysler Company to increase power output by in the middle speed range (1800-3600 rpm).

This employs centrifugal governor and proximity sensor. Centrifugal governor rotates with respect to the motion of the vehicle. Distance of the balls with respect to the centre line depends on the speed of the vehicle which is further sensed by proximity sensor. Index Terms: - Proximity sensors, Governor, LCD display, Carburetor etc. 1. INTRODUCTION: - Speed of the vehicle solely depends on the air-fuel mixture provided to the engine. Air-fuel mixture plays a vital role in controlling the speed as well as output of the engine. So, we require an effective air fuel mixture for the vehicle. Preparation of fuel-air mixture is done outside the engine cylinder and formation of a homogenous mixture is normally not completed in the inlet manifold. The method of mixture preparation is very necessary for spark ignition engines. The aim of carburetion is to supply a flammable mixture of fuel and air within the needed amount and quality for economical operation of the engine underneath all conditions. The process of formation of a combustible fuel-air mixture by mixing the proper amount of fuel with air before admission to engine cylinder is called carburetion and the device does this job is called carburetion.

    Internal Combustion Engines and Gas Turbines

    Internal Combustion Engines and Gas Turbines MODULE – I 1. INTRODUCTION: The internal combustion engine is a heat engine that converts chemical energy in a fuel into mechanical energy, usually made available on a rotating output shaft. Chemical energy of the fuel is first converted to thermal energy by means of combustion .This thermal energy raises the temperature and pressure of the gases within the engine , and the high-pressure gas then expands against the mechanical mechanisms of the engine. This expansion is converted by the mechanical linkages of the engine to a rotating crankshaft, which is the output of the engine. The crankshaft, in turn, is connected to a transmission and/or power train to transmit the rotating mechanical energy to the desired final use. i. ENGINE CLASSIFICATIONS • Types of Ignition (a) Spark Ignition (SI). An SI engine starts the combustion process in each cycle by use of a spark plug. The spark plug gives a high-voltage electrical discharge between two electrodes which ignites the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber surrounding the plug. In early engine development, before the invention of the electric spark plug, many forms of torch holes were used to initiate combustion from an external flame. (b) Compression Ignition (CI). The combustion process in a CI engine starts when the air- fuel mixture self-ignites due to high temperature in the combustion chamber caused by high compression. • Engine Cycle (a) Four-Stroke Cycle. A four-stroke cycle experiences four piston movements over two engine revolutions for each cycle. (b) Two-Stroke Cycle. A two-stroke cycle has two piston movements over one revolution for each cycle.
