Zusammenfassung:A fuel delivery system for an engine is provided. The fuel delivery system includes a tank, a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, a delivery conduit, a return conduit, a heat exchanger, a first valve, a second valve, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a signal indicative of a temperature of a fuel present within the tank. The controller is also configured to receive a signal indicative of a pressure of the fuel downstream of the heat exchanger. The controller is further configured to control at least one of the first valve and the second valve to selectively bypass at least a portion of the fuel in a gaseous state to the tank through the return conduit based, at least in part, on the received signals. The portion of the fuel is adapted to raise the temperature of the fuel present within the tank.
