Diesel injectors have gotten increasingly complex over the last twenty years of diesel development, but their basic design is fairly simple. Diesel fuel from the injection pump enters the mechanical ...

The key ingredient to maximizing the peak performance of a diesel engine is increasing the amount of diesel being burned. On old mechanical-injection engines, the only way to do this was to modify the ...

The clearances inside diesel injection system parts are closer than those found in any other technology. The plungers and needle valves in injectors need to fit tightly to ensure precise metering and ...

SAE Transactions, Vol. 104, Section 3: JOURNAL OF ENGINES (1995), pp. 112-127 (16 pages) A computer model solving the 1-D flow in a typical fuel injection system for direct-injection diesel engines is ...

High-pressure common rail fuel (HPCR) systems are standard on nearly every diesel engine today, from heavy equipment to over-the-road trucks, light-duty trucks, large generators and more. HPCR fuel ...
