Initially used in motor vehicles to convey a specific volume of fuel from a tank to the burner of an engine-independent heater, the range of applications for electro-magnetically driven dosing pumps has been widely expanded over the past few years, e.g. dosing pumps are part of the emission control system or used to convey a specific volume of fuel from a tank to the burner of an engine-independent heater. Whereas originally only conventional fuel was delivered, nowadays the dosing pumps have to be suitable for any kind of liquid media. As a result of the extensive fields of application, verification and improvement of the design for optimal usage and low energy consumption are needed. The paper presents experimental investigation and computer simulation of the dosing pump in order to examine its metering behavior and the energy consumption.
