Oh and another question I have, How much fuel should be available at all times to an engine? In other words how big should a surge tank be? Same capacity as the engine?
|
as much fuel as your fuel pump can pump in the time that you expect no fuel to be pumped into the surge tank.
if you have the fuel return going into the surge pot instead of directly to the tank: as much fuel as the engine can consume during the time that no fuel is making it to the surge tank.
say if your HP pump supplies... (for arguments sake) 180L/hr at pressure, thats 3L per minute. it will take 1 minute to empty a 3L surge tank. 20 seconds to empty a 1L pot.
if you have sayy.. 4x500cc injectors... the maximum they will flow (WOT) will either be 2L/min or 1.6L/min (for 80% duty, depending on how the injectors have been rated)
either way, maximum is about 3L/min...
if your run is going to take under 15 seconds, maximum fuel flowed by pump is 750mls... so as long as surgepot is 1L, you'll be fine..
dunno why ppl tend to use very large surgepots... no reason to.
