Abstract:
1. A system for controlling the temperature of gaseous fuel for an engine having a liquid to gaseous fuel converter including: a heater means adapted to heat the converter to thereby assist in converting the fuel from liquid to gas; a first temperature sensor adapted to measure the temperature of the converted gaseous fuel and provide an output indicative of said gaseous fuel temperature; a second temperature sensor adapted to measure the temperature of the converter and provide an output indicative of said converter temperature; a control means adapted to receive said measured gaseous fuel temperature and operate said heater to heat the converter if said measured gaseous fuel temperature falls below a pre-determined first threshold and turn said heater off if said measured gaseous fuel temperature rises above a pre-determined second threshold, said control means further adapted to receive said measured converter temperature.
