  • the metering temperature sensor 32 serves to detect the temperature of the fuel or gas, which is supplied to the combustion chamber 12 via the metering device 10.
  • a critical operating condition may occur in which liquid fuel gas evaporates in the metering device and occupies a larger volume.
  • This critical operating condition is also referred to as Vapor Lock condition and may, especially at volumetric and timed dosages, result in incorrect metered quantities since the metered quantities are matched to the liquid phase of the fuel. This in turn can lead to significant ignition problems.
  • a transition of the fuel gas from the liquid to the gaseous phase in the metering device 10 can be detected.
  • the temperature data acquired by the two sensors 31 and 32 are evaluated and stored in the measured value detection unit in the control device 20.
