Diseño y construcción de un sistema medidor de flujo de combustible con visualizador consumo vs. recorrido, para vehículos a gasolina con sensor de caudal.

Abstract

This project’s proposal is to design and construct a system to calculate and visually display fuel consumption that can be adapted to various gas vehicles adapting a caudal sensor. It will allow the vehicles to be operated in an efficient way. It is critical in this system to use two Venturi type flow meters that were designed under ISO 1567 standards, the calculations are based on the equations established by the flow meter manufacturer. The fundamental principle of this system is the linkage between the vehicle sensor VSS and the device. The sensors send the fuel consumption, speed and distance data to the system which calculates the information for the visual display. The device program is in C language compiler CCS, the compiler converts the encoding C-machine communication to hexadecimal, necessary for operation of the micro controller. Key critical parts of the program are: a preprocessor directive, functions and instruction. The performance of the system will be tested checking the sensor information and the data of the calculations.
