Title:
GASOLINE THE IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING GASOLINE TYPE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/029615
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The types of gasoline of various compositions having different distillation characteristics can be identified accurately and quickly. A pulse voltage is applied for a predetermined time to an identification sensor heater having a heater and a liquid temperature sensor for identification arranged in the vicinity of the heater, so that a gasoline to be identified is heated by the heater. The type of gasoline is identified by a voltage output differential (VO) corresponding to a temperature differential between the initial temperature and the peak temperature of the liquid temperature sensor for identification. An alcohol concentration sensor senses the alcohol concentration of the gasoline by feeding the gasoline between electrodes of the alcohol concentration sensor and measuring a change in the relative dielectric constant of the gasoline between the electrodes by oscillation frequency. Referring to previously stored alcohol concentration data in an identification control unit, liquid identification data in the identification control unit are corrected using the sensed alcohol concentration, thereby identifying the type of gasoline.
