Kashmir: SSM Engineering students develop Fuel Tank Detection System
Srinagar/IBNS: In current times, petroleum is a very limited resource and with fuel thefts by sellers the prices climb higher which makes an apparatus like Fuel Management System essential to monitor and control its consumption.
A Fuel Tank Detection System project has been developed by Iqra Qadir, Lone Muskaan, and Rabia Jeelani Shah of SSM College of Engineering, Department of Computer Engineering from seventh semester.
Fuel Management Systems (FMS) are used to maintain, and control the fuel consumption in any type of organization that uses transport, including rail, road, air, and water as means of business.
Currently, organisations are facing a serious problem in managing fuel transportation due to manual monitoring.
This manual monitoring provides an inefficient way of calculating and analysing fuel ingestion and can lead to financial losses for the company.
The system developed by the varsity students provides an efficient way of tracking vehicles in order to localize the fuel Tankers as well as a software database for fuel records residing on end users’ workstations or mobile phones.
The database contains the number of fuel litres at the time of insertion and the number of fuel thefts when the volume of the tanker changes a lot before reaching the destination.
In the future, the students want to work on providing a mechanism to overcome the problem of refilling tanks and detect the leakage of the fuel tanks.
