Abstract

Many Today in this digitized world, if the fuel indicator in the automobiles is also made digital it will help to know the exact amount of fuel available in the fuel tank which may be useful for the user. For the design of digital fuel level indicator the set-up is designed by using sine bar mechanism . The experimental set-up is analyzed for various inclinations of the tank, which will be displayed on LED display for the actual value of amount of actual fuel available in the tank. The experimental set-up is fabricated specifically for two wheeler, the same set-up may be design and fabricated for four wheeler also. The only parameter varied during the experimentation is inclination of tank which is taken as up to 350 measured from ground level. This study presents the effect of inclination of the tank on the amount of fuel available in the tank. This paper mainly focuses to find out a proper solution for indicating the exact availability of fuel in the tank digitally.
