Digital Quantity Calculation in Petrol Tanks through Numeric Fuel Indicator for Motor Cycles

Abstract

In day-to-day life, petrol fraudulent activities are faced by people and petrol scam awareness isn't familiar to people. Currently, bikes only have fuel pointer displays that show the level of fuel in the tank rather than a detailed count of how much fuel is present. The proposed model solutes the above problem by calculating the fuel consumption in a fuel tank using water flow sensors and displaying it in digital values using digital meters. The amount of fuel in the tank is displayed in liters using numerical digits (ex:1.2 L). This solution builds the numeric fuel pointer display which indicates the correct measure of fuel regarding liters (L). The main aim of this paper is to minimize the burden of the riders continuously checking the fuel level in the tank helping them know the amount of fuel in tank with maximum accuracy without any physical check. This indicator will be powered by a rechargeable battery and the fuel quantity will be displayed using LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). The fuel amount will be measured using a magnetic type flow sensor working under the principle of the Hall Effect. The Digital Petrol quantity calculator system is easily fixed to the petrol tank of the vehicles externally, such that the proposed system is aware of the safety purpose.
