Journal Title: Journal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics - Year 2018, Vol 13, Issue 2

Abstract

Due to increased pollution and economical challenges of our days, alternative fuels have becomeone of the most important fields of research. There are many alternative fuels available today, but one withthe highest potential is the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Already, important steps have been made indeveloping new technologies and infrastructure for the LPG market. This paper presents the maincharacteristics and functionalities of LPG, as a more economical, energy efficient and eco-friendly fuel.Also, a comprehensive review of various types of fuel systems have been prepared for better understandingof operating conditions and advantages for a LPG fueled internal combustion engine.
