METHOD OF OPERATION OF THE AUTOMOBILE PETROL HEATER Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC B60H1/00 

FIELD: fuel combustion devices.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to vehicle heaters. When petrol automotive heater (10) is operated in the start phase of the combustion process, which includes zone (12) of the nozzles with combustion chamber (16), fuel (B) supply system (22) to injector zone (12), system (26) for supplying combustion air (L) to injector zone (12) as well as at least one electrically excitable ignition means (32) for igniting the fuel-air mixture formed in combustion chamber (16), the heating of ignition means (32) is activated prior to the start of the fuel supply. With the beginning of the ignition phase, the electrical resistance of ignition means (32) is detected and a predetermined resistance is detected based on the ignition resistance of ignition means (32) registered with the beginning of the ignition phase. In ignition phase, ignition means (32) are operated in the resistance control mode, at which the actual resistance of ignition means (32) corresponds to a predetermined resistance of ignition means (32).

EFFECT: effective operation of the heater intended for starting the combustion process of the ignition means is achieved.
