Abstract

The main aim of our project is to avoid the freezing of petrol in cold conditions and also preventing evaporation due to hot conditions using peltier module in the fuel tank. This helps in increasing the fuel efficiency of a petrol engine by maintaining the temperature of the inlet fuel. By preheating the fuel to a considerable amount, before supplying it to the carburetor, vaporisation of fuel inside the combustion chamber is done with ease and thereby complete combustion is achieved. As a result of complete combustion the fuel efficiency of petrol engine is increased considerably. Moreover, there will be no need of coolant or refrigerant to provide cooling effect. The density of petrol can be maintained at an optimum range.
