Systems and methods for controlling fuel mixing

A system for controlling fuel mixing, the system comprising:

• at least one sensor operable to measure a fuel flow of a combined fuel that is provided to a machine, wherein the combined fuel is formed by mixing together a plurality of fuel types;
• at least one compressor operable to compress the combined fuel;
• at least one memory operable to store computer-executable instructions;
• and
• at least one processor configured to access the at least one memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to:
• identify one or more parameters associated with the operation of the machine;
• receive information associated with the measured fuel flow from the at least one sensor, wherein the measured fuel flow is determined after at least a first fuel type has been added to at least a second fuel type;
• determine, based at least in part on the identified one or more parameters, a ratio of a flow of the first fuel type to the measured fuel flow, wherein the first fuel type has a heating value that is greater than another fuel type of the plurality of fuel types, and wherein the ratio comprises a correction for water dropout after the combined fuel is compressed;
• set a flow of the first fuel type based at least in part on the determined ratio;
• receive measurements data associated with an energy content of the fuel flow of the combined fuel subsequent to the flow of the first fuel type being set;
• and
• adjust the flow of the first fuel type based at least in part on the received measurements data.
