Abstract
The objective of this study was to analyze through spray and engine experiments the effects of replacing mechanical injectors. The spray characteristics of the mechanical injectors of a used diesel engine and those of new mechanical injectors of the same model were compared. The injection quantity of the new injector was approximately 2–4% higher than that of the used injector owing to the deposit on the nozzle surface. The opening pressure of the used injector was 225 bar on account of the deterioration of the spring inside the injector. This pressure was lower than that of the new injector. The average spray penetration length of both injectors increased similarly up to 2 ms after injection. Owing to deposits on the nozzle surface, the spray angle of the used injectors tended to be smaller than those of the new injectors. The results of engine experiments showed that the new injectors recovered over 90% of engine torque and engine power on account of the increased fuel injection quantity. However, employing the new injectors caused heat loss and fuel consumption rate deterioration. The new injectors effectively reduced NOx and PM emissions by retarding the fuel injection timing and increasing the fuel injection pressure.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Automotive Technology has as its objective the publication and dissemination of original research in all fields of AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY, SCIENCE and ENGINEERING. It fosters thus the exchange of ideas among researchers in different parts of the world and also among researchers who emphasize different aspects of the foundations and applications of the field.
Standing as it does at the cross-roads of Physics, Chemistry, Mechanics, Engineering Design and Materials Sciences, AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY is experiencing considerable growth as a result of recent technological advances. The Journal, by providing an international medium of communication, is encouraging this growth and is encompassing all aspects of the field from thermal engineering, flow analysis, structural analysis, modal analysis, control, vehicular electronics, mechatronis, electro-mechanical engineering, optimum design methods, ITS, and recycling. Interest extends from the basic science to technology applications with analytical, experimental and numerical studies.
The emphasis is placed on contributions that appear to be of permanent interest to research workers and engineers in the field. If furthering knowledge in the area of principal concern of the Journal, papers of primary interest to the innovative disciplines of AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY, SCIENCE and ENGINEERING may be published. Papers that are merely illustrations of established principles and procedures, even though possibly containing new numerical or experimental data, will generally not be published.
When outstanding advances are made in existing areas or when new areas have been developed to a definitive stage, special review articles will be considered by the editors.
No length limitations for contributions are set, but only concisely written papers are published. Brief articles are considered on the basis of technical merit.
