Abstract: The present invention relates to a valve (24) suitable for
use in the fuel supply system of a diesel engine. The
valve is capable of diverting an incoming supply of fuel
to one of two possible outlets (44,46) depending upon the
temperature of the fuel. The valve (24) comprises a
chamber (48), an inlet (42) and two outlets (44,46). A
movable valve member (50) is located within the chamber
(48). The valve (24) also includes at least one resilient
biasing means (56) and a shape memory alloy (SMA)
component (58). The SMA component (58) has a
transformation temperature and co-operates with the
resilient biasing means (56) to bias the valve member (50)
to a first position closing at least one outlet (44). The
SMA component is in thermal contact with any liquid within
the chamber (48) and as the temperature of the SMA
component reaches the transformation temperature it
changes size and biases the valve member (50) to a second
