中文摘要
燃油会受到水、微粒和细菌的污染,这些物质会沉积在燃油箱底部。燃料污染会导致发动机损坏、机器停机和生产率降低,尤其是在建筑和公路运输领域。FuelActive通过开发创新的改装燃料输送和监控系统,帮助防止故障,在燃料解决方案市场取得了明显的成功,目前有两种产品:*FuelActive:** 浮动燃料抽取管,输送最清洁的燃料,减轻喷油器损坏和发动机故障 *iFuelActive:** 智能燃料提取装置,利用罐内传感器/遥测技术远程监测燃料-质量该项目将发展FuelActive的概念“优化器”设计,以创建一个无缝部署的解决方案,在各种发动机和油箱组合,可以直接在维护周期或交付前检查(售后)期间安装在设备/车辆内,并确认生产样品的单元技术规格。因此,Optimiser可以在项目后获得车辆型式认证,并在众多车辆生产工厂和燃料类型中具有高度可扩展性。目前,燃油拾取器实现单一功能;提取燃油,并且是静态设备,导致油箱底部受到污染。Optimiser结合了动态燃油提取器和燃油发送器,以提取最清洁的燃油,并配备燃油质量监控;防止污染物进入系统。实时燃料温度、质量、压力和流量分析信息将实现远程分析、预测性维护并改善燃料库存管理(现场/多辆车)。ECU集成提供了油耗、诊断警报、发动机性能、车辆利用率、路线规划、改善驾驶员行为(超速、重加速、急刹车、过弯、怠速)和燃油/车辆盗窃的基准。大型低效柴油发动机加上高年里程占全球运输部门二氧化碳/氮氧化物排放量的39%(约占化石燃料的5%)。Optimiser可立即响应COP 28,减少约5%的CO2/NOx;如果大规模采用,可有效减少1/20的现有车辆。该项目将通过从第一天开始提供最清洁的燃料来逐步改变现有的燃料提取系统。
英文摘要
Fuel becomes contaminated from water, particulates and bacteria settling to the bottom of fuel tanks. Fuel contamination leads to engine damage, machine downtime and reduced productivity; particularly in construction and road haulage.FuelActive has achieved demonstrable success in the fuel solutions market through developing innovative retrofitted fuel-delivery and monitoring systems that help prevent breakdowns with two products currently:* **FuelActive:** Floating fuel-extraction pipe delivering the cleanest fuel, mitigating injector damage and engine failure* **iFuelActive:** Smart fuel-extraction unit utilising in-tank sensors/telemetry to remotely monitor fuel-qualityThis project will evolve FuelActive's conceptual 'Optimiser' design to create a seamlessly deployable solution across a variety of engine and fuel tank combinations that can be directly installed within equipment/vehicles during maintenance cycles or at pre-delivery inspections (aftermarket) and confirm unit technical specifications for production samples. Consequently, allowing Optimiser to attain vehicle Type Approval post-project and become highly-scalable within numerous vehicle production plants and fuel-types.Currently, fuel pick-ups fulfil a single function; to extract fuel and are static devices, resulting in exposure to contamination at the bottom of the tank. Optimiser combines a dynamic fuel pick-up with a fuel-sender to extract the cleanest fuel, with on-board fuel-quality monitoring; preventing contaminants entering the system. Real-time fuel temperature, quality, pressure and flow-analysis information will enable remote analytics, predictive maintenance and improve fuel-stock management (on-site/multiple vehicles). ECU integration provides benchmarks for fuel consumption, diagnostic alerts, engine performance, vehicle utilisation, route-planning, improved driver behaviour (over-revving, heavy-acceleration, harsh-braking, aggressive cornering, idling) and fuel/vehicle theft.Large inefficient diesel engines combined with high annual mileage accounts for 39% of the transport sector's CO2/NOx emissions (~5% of fossil-fuels) globally. Optimiser provides an immediate response for COP28, with ~5% CO2/NOx reduction; effectively removing 1-in-20 existing vehicles if adopted at-scale. This project will deliver a step-change to existing fuel-extraction systems by supplying the cleanest fuel from Day-1\.
