<p>A fuel management system (100) for an internal combustion engine (110) including an intake manifold (114) is presented. The fuel management system (100) includes a thermal reactor (120) having an inlet port (122) and an outlet port (124). The thermal reactor (120) receives liquid fuel (112) through the inlet port (122) and is adapted to heat the liquid fuel (112) and discharge fuel vapor through the outlet port (124). A pressure sensing device (128) is configured to measure pressure within the intake manifold (114) to determine engine load. A plenum (126) is adapted to receive the fuel vapor from the outlet port (124) and mix the fuel vapor with air, and the plenum (126) is adapted to be connected to the intake manifold (114) to provide the fuel vapor and air mixture to the intake manifold (114). A fuel metering device (130) is operable to regulate the amount of fuel vapor provided to the plenum (126) in response to the pressure sensing device (128).</p> |
