  • Publication number: 20230398861
    Abstract: A fuel supply system for a road vehicle and having: a fuel tank, which is shaped like saddle due to the presence of a central saddle and delimits an inner volume divided into an upper area, which is located above the central saddle, and two lower areas, which are located under the upper area and are separated from one another by the central saddle; two low-pressure fuel pumps, which each suck from the bottom of a corresponding lower area; at least one high-pressure fuel pump, which receives fuel from both low-pressure fuel pumps; a level sensor arranged in the upper area and configured to measure a fuel level only in the upper area; and two level sensors, each arranged in a respective lower area and configured to measure a fuel level only in the respective lower area.

  • Patent number: 10830165
    Abstract: Method for the identification of a torque delivery imbalance of an internal combustion engine equipped with two or more cylinders under constant speed operating conditions of the internal combustion engine comprising an analysis procedure in the frequency domain of a rotation speed signal of said engine so that when an amplitude of a half-order frequency exceeds a predetermined threshold, the cylinder of said two or more cylinders that causes said imbalance is identified by calculating a relative phase.
