- Summary:
- In order to improve engine emission and limit combustion instabilities, in particular for low load and idle conditions, reducing the injected fuel mass shot-to-shot dispersion is mandatory. Unfortunately, the most diffused approach for the hydraulic analysis of low-pressure injectors such as PFIs or SCR dozers is restrained to the mean injected mass measurement in given operating conditions, since the use of conventional injection analyzers is unfeasible. In the present paper, an innovative injection analyzer is used to measure both the injection rate and the injected mass of each single injection event, enabling a proper dispersion investigation of the analysed low pressure injection system. The proposed instrument is an inverse application of the Zeuch's method, which in this case is applied to a closed volume upstream the injector, with the injector being operated with the prescribed upstream-to-downstream pressure differential. Further, the injector can inject freely against air, thus enabling simultaneous analyses of the resulting spray such as imaging or momentum flux measurement. In the present paper, the proposed injection analyzer is used to characterize the tested PFI injector in terms of injection rate and injected mass dispersion in different operating conditions with atmospheric downstream pressure conditions. The simultaneous spray imaging is also used to complement the analysis of the investigated low pressure injection system in throttled-like operating conditions
