Diesel engine diesel fuel injection system diagram. It consists of the following basic units. Injection system schematic diagram. The pump often has a hand primer lever for bleeding air from the system. The diesel engine also known as a compression ignition or ci engine named after rudolf diesel is an internal combustion engine in which ignition of the fuel is caused by the elevated temperature of the air in the cylinder due to the mechanical compression adiabatic compressionthis contrasts with spark ignition engines such as a petrol engine gasoline engine or gas engine using a.
Modern injection systems reach very high injection pressures and utilize sophisticated electronic control methods. Diesel fuel system design considerations 12 fuel storage systems. Perkins diesel fuel system diagram. By pressurising and injecting the fuel the system forces it into air that has been compressed to high pressure in the combustion chamber.
There are four primary systems for injecting fuel. The system structure is reproduced from h. The purpose of the fuel injection system is to deliver fuel into the engine cylinders while precisely controlling the injection timing fuel atomization and other parametersthe main types of injection systems include pump line nozzle unit injector and common rail. The diesel fuel injection system consists of.
The fuel injection system lies at the very heart of the diesel engine. Heisler vehicle and engine technology second edition 1999 and is categorized as an in line multi element injection system. Modern injection pumps are almost all jerk pumps which use the plunger and cam method of fuel injection. Diesel fuels diesel fuel systems application and installation guide c2013.
Bleeding the air out of a diesel fuel system in this case a cav system on a bd154 engine although the process translates to other systems as well. Experience has proven that distillate fuels meeting basic. Fuel injection pump pressurises fuel to high pressure.
