DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF FLEXIBLE FUEL VEHICLE

ABSTRACT:

A flexible-fuel Generator (FFV) or dual-fuel vehicle (colloquially called a flex-fuel
vehicle) is an alternative fuel vehicle with a internal combustion engine designed to run on
more than one fuel, usually gasoline blended with either ethanol or methanol fuel, and both
fuels are stored in the same common tank. Flex-fuel engines are capable of burning any
proportion of the resulting blend in the combustion chamber as fuel injection and spark
timing are adjusted automatically according to the actual blend detected by electronic
sensors. Flex-fuel vehicles are distinguished from bi-fuel vehicles, where two fuels are stored
in separate tanks and the engine runs on one fuel at a time, for example, compressed natural
gas (CNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), or hydrogen.

WORKING OPERATION:
A two-stroke engine is a combustion engine that completes the thermodynamic cycle in two
movements of the piston compared to twice that number for a four-stroke engine. This increased
efficiency is accomplished by using the beginning of the compression stroke and the end of the
combustion stroke to perform simultaneously the intake and exhaust (or scavenging) functions. In
this way two-stroke engines often provide strikingly high specific power. Petrol (spark ignition)
versions are particularly useful in lightweight (portable) applications used in GENERATORS
ADVANTAGES

LPG is cheaper than petrol (up to 50%)

It produces less exhaust emissions than petrol

It is better for the engine and it can prolong engine life

In some vehicles, it can provide better performance

Has a higher octane rating than petrol (108 compared to 91)


DISADVANTAGES

has a lower energy density than petrol
