1. Abstract
In recent day’s world has become digitized, if we make fuel meter in the vehicle as
digital it will help know exact amount of fuel present in fuel tank. In our project, we
have made digital fuel meter. Here, we are indicating amount of fuel present in the tank
digitally. Fuel theft is also problem in all over the world. In our project whenever there
is fuel theft occurs, due to the noise of burglar alarm people are aware of fuel theft and
also during fuel theft a text message is delivered on mobile to the owner of the bike.
This is real time occurring process. The previous vehicle system don’t have such a
functionality that there is no display gear level whatever may be the condition though
the bike is running or not. But in our system we can overcome above problem by using
digital meter which show the gear level in steady state or running state of vehicle.

2. Direct Impact to Society


 Digital fuel indicator helps to give measure of exactquantity of fuel left in the
tank.
 Exterminate petrol theft cases.
 Mileage of the vehicles can also be determined.

3. Literature Review

Fuel level detector is the design of a system that will provide volumetric analysis and reading
of fuel in its tank and present a digital output on an LCD screen.

Fuel filling station operators and customers are becoming increasingly concerned about the
quantity of fuel available in the underground storage tank. Hence fuel quantity measurement
has emerged as a major area of fuel sale and acquisition. The predominant reasons for this
emergence is the increase in fuel prices which leads to fuel hoarding, shortage in supply
making operators to sell to their loyal customers only, and also the fact that calculating the
amount left always requires an action to be performed by operators.

Synthesis Of New Knowledge from Existing Work
With the knowledge acquired from the calibration of dipstick and that of float mechanism, we
have made digital fuel meter. Here, we are indicating amount of fuel present in the tank digitally

4. Problem formulation
The digital meter follows a sequence as discussed above. The functions are as follows:
1. Start
2. Initializing the switch of vehicle
3. Start the engine of the vehicle
4. Display the level of the fuel and gear on LCD
5. Keep the engine ON, and display current value of fuel level and gear level.
6. Stop the engine of the vehicle
7. Store the petrol level value
8. If the petrol level goes down from stored value during theft.
9. Then send message to owner and buzzer of vehicle will ON
10. If not then go to step no 7
11. Stop
5. Methodology
Block Diagram:
We have used PIC 16F877A Micro controller. LCD16x2 is connected to
Microcontroller to display the level of fuel and gear. For sending a message of Fuel
Theft we have used GSM Modem. Buzzer is used for alert. Initially limit switch is used
to turn ON ignition. After ignition LCD will display current value of fuel level and Gear
level. By pressing start switch vehicle will start and it consume some amount of fuel
present in the fuel tank. In running condition of vehicle we must have to change the
gear level of vehicle, this changeable gear level is also display on LCD. After some
time we will stop vehicle, at that time the current level of fuel is stored in micro
controller memory. While fuel Theft occurs then Fuel level goes down and message
send to owner by using GSM Modem. At that time Buzzer will ON. The basic block
diagram of the Digital Fuel meter using PIC micro-controller is shown in Fig2. Mainly
this block diagram consists of the following essential blocks: Power supply,
PIC16F877A microcontroller LCD Display, Fuel Float Sensor, GSM Module, MAX
232, Buzzer and Driver IC ULN2803.

7. Application

 To produce a numeric readout of the amount of fuelleft in the tank.


 Capable of being in the dash of the vehicle, thusneeded to minimum
modifications.
 This project is adaptable to all types of vehicles, toindicate the amount of fuel in
fuel tanks.

8. Conclusion

We have concluded that, the project “Modify fuel level indication in digital form” gives
the quantity of the fuel in the fuel tank in the form of numeric digits more accurately.
Thus, due to this we will now be able to judge that how long distance can be travelled
by the remaining fuel in the tank. This will also give information of fuel filled at the
petrol pumps. Here, I conclude that the required goals and objectives of my project have
been achieved. I feel that my project serves something good to this world and like to
present it before the prosperous world.
