A Review of Proposed Automotive Carburetor Concepts for Improved Fuel Economy.
Abstract
This report summarizes available information pertaining to proposed concepts for improved automotive carburetors. In particular, information is provided which depicts the development and performance characteristics of a selected number of advanced, novel, or new carburetors which have been brought to the attention of the Department of Transportation as having the potential to improve automotive fuel economy. To provide a basis of perspective, a discussion of the basic requirements, construction, method of operating, and inherent limitations of conventional carburetors and induction systems is included.
