Abstract
Charge forming apparatus for forming a fuel air mixture of the type in which a stream of inducted air impinges upon a stream of fuel in a fuel dispersion gap, is provided with an air flow rate sensor which reduces the area of the fuel dispersion gap as the flow rate of inducted air increases for providing leaner fuel air ratios at higher air flow rates than would be available if the initial area of dispersion gap were retained, in short, the apparatus provides a flatter fuel-air ratio over a greater operating range than would be provided by a dispersion gap of fixed area.
