Conversion of Diesel Fuel System to CNG Fuel System for Commercial Vehicles 2024-26-0382
CNG fuel has recently gained popularity in passenger and commercial vehicles due to its lower cost of operation compared to gasoline and diesel. It is also a more environmentally friendly fuel than other fuels.
Converting a customer vehicle with a Diesel option to a CNG option is more difficult than building a new CNG vehicle. In this we are outlining the design of CNG fuel systems and the challenges of replacing them during the transition from Diesel to CNG and qualifying the Government Norms for running the vehicle will increase the life as well as make our environment more eco-friendly than diesel vehicles.
Using CNG as a fuel in the automotive industry gives benefits over Gasoline & Diesel • increased life of lubricating oils, as CNG does not contaminate and dilute the crankcase oil. • Lower cost of per unit energy. • Being a gaseous fuel, CNG mixes easily and evenly in air, hence less hazardous. • CNG is less likely to touch off on hot surfaces since it includes a tall auto-ignition temperature (540 °C), and a contract extend (5–15 percent) of combustibility.• CNG transmits essentially less contamination straightforwardly than gasoline or diesel when combusted e.g., UHC, CO, NOX, SOx and PM.
