Zusammenfassung:A fuel-measuring flow system for diesel engines that provides a continuous metered flow of fuel from the storage tank to the operating engine, wherein a flow meter defined by a transducer having a metering orifice therein is located between the tank and injector pump of the engine to establish an accurate reading as to the amount of fuel being used by the engine, the returning unburned fuel being cooled and mixed with the fuel from the tank after the stored fuel passes through the flow meter. The system further includes a relay-valve device and a manifold member whereby the unburned fuel and stored fuel are mixed together prior to being pumped to the engine.
