摘要:Bikes (two-wheelers) will continue to play a significant role in a human’s life. Gaseous fuels such as
liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) have been broadly used in commercial vehicles. In this,
an experimental investigation of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) as an alternative fuel for a gasoline engine is
evaluated. An effort has been made to use non-conventional fuel against conventional fuel which is becoming scarce
and costly these days, as non-conventional fuel will lead to less polluted air than conventional fuel. It is also worthy of
economic considerations and engine efficiency. In our paper, we have designed and installed LPG gas kit on a fourstroke
vehicle in which we can use both gasoline and LPG as fuel. The alterations are made to install LPG in the
vehicle & its effects are studied & discussed. For lower speed vehicles, LPG is appropriate, but gasoline is suitable for
higher speed operation. So, their combinations are studied as fuel supply which can be suitable for city traffic
conditions, in which mostly the mode of operation is low. Using this concept, we can control our expenditure in buying
of fuels.
