Dual Fuel System Mock – up

Abstract

The main objective of this study was to assemble and assess the functionality of the Dual Fuel System Mock-up in the aspects of acceleration, pressure generated and emission output as device for instruction. The study was primarily conducted at Bohol Island State University Main Campus, Tagbilaran City in the Academic Year 2018-2019. The study used the experimental method of research in the making of the product. It was supplemented with observation guides to determine the functionality of the Dual Fuel System Mock-up. The respondents were Automotive Technology students and experts. The researcher used the experimental design in the conduct of the study. Observation guides were used in the locale of the study was at Bohol Island State University – Main Campus, Tagbilaran City in the Academic Year 2018 – 2019. BISU is an educational institution that offers Engineering and Technology Courses particularly Automotive Technology. collecting the quantitative data during the testing phase. The researcher used an observation guide as one of the instruments in gathering data during the test of the functionality of the Dual Fuel System Mock-up.  The Dual System Mock-Up is an internal gasoline combustion engine which completes four separate strokes while turning the crankshaft. This dual fuel LPG system allows the engine to operate on either LPG or Petrol. The petrol tank still remains in the mock-up. The operator can switch from gas to petrol or vice versa. It has a safety device in case there will be an electrical problem. Dual fuel system mock-up is an effective tool instruction because it could help the students observe and trace acceleration, pressure and emission output of the fuel when used with LPG and gasoline fuel. Researcher will introduce the Dual Fuel System Mock-up to automotive technology and allied courses as a tool for instruction. Improve the mock-up with the latest type of engine. Recommend the study to be patented for its protection. School administrator shall encourage their instructors to construct instructional materials that can replicate the actual functions of the machines or devices found in the industry.
