The fuel tank is the area where the fuel required for the operation of the vehicle is stored to supply it to the engine. The fuel that vehicles need to move is kept safely here and supplied to the engine while driving.

Types and Features of Fuel Tanks

Fuel tanks are designed to perform the function of fuel storage and are manufactured accordingly. In order to be able to perform the required storage functions, it must have certain material properties and corresponding systems. The main systems that should be present in the vehicle's fuel tank are listed below;

Fuel tank filler neck: Filling the fuel tank should be done smoothly through the filler neck.
Preservation of fuel: The fuel tank must be made of the most suitable material for the type of fuel and with appropriate production standards to prevent leakage or evaporation.
Measurement of fuel level: The liquid or gas in the fuel tank must be measured and observed through the gauges in the vehicle.
Venting system: In case of fuel expansion or evaporation, the excess pressure must be released by safety valves.

Engine supply system: The fuel must reach the engine through fuel pumps and intake systems.

All of these processes are carried out using different devices on the tank. In order for the systems in the fuel tank to work smoothly, the fuel tank must meet certain production and quality standards.
