The engine is the heart of the car. That is the internal combustion engine to produce a torque which is not that other, as the source of all mechanical and electrical processes taking place in the car. But the engine is not able to exist without the related systems – lubricating system, cooling, air exhaust and supply system. It is the latter which supplies the engine with fuel. It can be gasoline, alcohol, diesel fuel, liquefied gas, methane. The engines are different and they eat is also different. Consider the main types of systems.

Device and functions

Any cars have a certain reserve. This is the distance the car can travel on a full tank without the need for refueling. This distance is influenced by seasonal factors, weather, traffic conditions, type of road surface, load the car, driving style of the driver. The main role in “appetite” is the power supply system, as well as the correctness of its work.

There are several basic functions of this system. Regardless of the type of engine, this system performs the function of feeding, cleaning and storage of fuel, cleaning the air. She also performs the preparation of the fuel mixture and feeds it into the combustion chamber.

The Classic power system in the car consists of several elements. This fuel tank – it holds fuel. The pump is required to create pressure in the system, and also for supplying gasoline under compulsion. So fuel could get from the tank to the engine there is a fuel line. Is metal or plastic tubing and hoses made of special rubber. Still, the system includes filters – they cleanse the fuel.

Air filter – it is also part of any fuel system. A special device mixes air and fuel in a certain ratio.

Basic principle

The Device of the power supply system of the engine as a whole is quite simple. The principle of operation is also simple. The fuel pump delivers gasoline from the tank. Previously the fluid passes through multiple filters, and then falls on the device, which prepares the mixture. Further, the gasoline enters the cylinders – in different systems, this is accomplished in different ways.

Types of systems

Among the main types of fuel can distinguish a gasoline, diesel, and liquefied petroleum or natural gas. Accordingly, the engine can be petrol, diesel or gas.

Among the experts recognized the typology of car systems, power feeding method and by the method of mixture preparation. According to this classification distinguishes the carburetor systems and fuel injected. This monoinjection and the injector.

Carburetor

Power supply System of the carburettor engine has a fairly simple device. It has all the above elements, and it works approximately the same way as already described above. As the device which prepares a mixture, in this case the carburetor is used.

power system diesel engine

The Last is a fairly complex unit. It is used for mixing gasoline with air in certain proportions. In automotive history there were many models and types of carburetors. But the most popular model is the float type with the suction principle. Numerous "Ozone", "Alexi”, “the Weber” and others.

Schema of the carburetor next. Naturally, this fundamental device. All the carburettors are structurally different from each other.

The Assembly consists of the float chamber and one or two floats. Inside the chamber via a needle valve the fuel is supplied. But that's not all. Also, the device of the carburetor includes a mixing chamber. There may be one or two. There are models where the mixing chambers four and more. Here is also a diffuser and atomizer. Float carburetors are also equipped with air and throttle valves. The carburetors are produced by casting. Inside there are channels for the passage of fuel and air. A special metering elements – nozzles.

the power supply system of the internal combustion engine

The Scheme of work is here passive. When the piston of the engine on the intake stroke, in the cylinder a vacuum is created. Due to the vacuum in the cylinder the air comes in. The latter passes through the filter and the corresponding jets of the carb. Further, in the mixing chamber and the diffuser fuel, which is supplied from the atomizer is broken the air flow of the fine fraction. Then it is mixed with air. Then through the intake manifold mixture is fed into the cylinder.

Despite the fact that gasoline engines are obsolete, they are still very actively used. Some enthusiasts modify or invent new models.

A fuel injected system

The Engines were developed together with them, have improved the power system. Instead of carbs engineers have invented a system of single point and multipoint injection. The power engine of this type is already considerably more complicated. But they are not always more reliable.

There

It's not quite the injector. It is ratherthe carb with the injector and some sensors. The difference is that the fuel in the intake manifold is not by dilution but by injection through injectors – it is one for the whole system. Process is controlled by electronics – it receives information from two or three sensors and based on this dose amount of gasoline.

service system of the engine

The System is simple – and this is the main argument against gasoline counterparts. In the fuel system low pressure, and this allows the use of ordinary electric pumps. Control via the ECU allows to continuously monitor the amount of gasoline to maintain stoichiometric mixture.

Electronics works with multiple sensors. This is the mechanism that controls the opening angle of the throttle valve, a crankshaft position sensor, lambda probe, pressure regulator. Some models have the IAC valve.

The system power gasoline engine according to information from the sensors sends a signal that opens the injector. Despite the fact that there controls the electronics, and the device it is quite simple, they can be a lot of trouble. Often car owners are faced with the overconsumption of fuel, with the jerks of the car, with lapses. Often due to the fact that most of these systems are very old, difficult to find spare parts and repair kits for them. So often owners are compelled to go technologically backwards and install carburetors where no electronics.

Even high-quality service system of the engine of this type often does not bring results. Due to age, poor quality of gasoline, these systems have poor viability.

Systems with distributed and direct injection

To implement this system, engineers had to abandon one injector and use a separate for each cylinder. To efficiently fuel was sprayed and mixed with air in the proper proportion, the pressure in the system increased. The injectors are mounted in the manifold after the throttle, and they are directed to the inlet valves.

service power system

This system of power injection engine running electronics. There is a basic set of sensors, as in there. But there are others. For example, sensor mass air flow, knock and temperature in the collectors. Pressing on the gas pedal, the driver activates the system air. The ECU due to the information from the sensors, opens the injectors. The ECU also determines the number, intensity and number of cycles that occur in one injection.

Diesel engine

The working Principle of diesel engine is explained separately. Here, too, there are the atomizer. And diesel fuel is sprayed into the cylinders. In the combustion chamber is in the process of formation of the mixture, where it is then ignited. Unlike petrol engine, diesel in the mixture doesn't burn from a spark, and compression and high temperatures. This is the main feature of these DVS. Thus the high torque and fuel efficiency. Typically, such engines have low fuel consumption and a high degree of compression (this option is about 20-25 units). If the index is lower, the motor just won't start. At the same time, the petrol engine can start even with low compression and less than eight units. The power supply system of the diesel engine can be represented in several forms. It is direct injection, swirl-chamber, indirect.

power supply system for petrol engine

And swirl-chamber indirect options serves the fuel in a special container in the cylinder where it is partially illuminated. Then the portion of the fuel goes into the main cylinder. In the cylinder burning diesel mixed with air and burns. As for direct injection, the fuel is immediately delivered into the cylinder and mixed with air. The fuel rail pressure can reach two hundred or more bar. At the same time, the gasoline engine indicator - no more than four.

Fault

In the process of operation of the vehicle the fuel supply system is under load, which can lead to unstable behavior of the machine or failure of the various elements of the fuel system.

Not Enough fuel

This happens because of the poor quality of fuel, long operating life, exposure to the environment. All these factors lead to contamination in the fuel, in the tanks, the filters. Also in the case of carburetors, clogged openings for the supply of gasoline. Often the fuel is not delivered due to breakage of the pump. On machines with there can be failures due to electronics.

For the stable operation of the internal combustion engine requires regular maintenance of the power supply system of the engine. It implies the flushing nozzles flushing there or the carb. You should regularly change filters, and repair kits of carburetor.

Loss of power

The condition of the fuel system associated with the violation of the proportions of the mixture that is fed into the combustion chamber. In injection machines, it happens because of a failure of the lambda probe.

maintenance power

In the carb may be due to incorrectly selected nozzles. As a result, the engine runs too rich mixture.

Conclusion

There are other malfunctions of the fuel system. But in most cases they are associated with other systems in the car. With proper maintenance and replacement of filters modern engine will not give the owner problems, of course, if it is not old there.
