Measurement methods for determining the parameters of injectors in internal combustion engines

The general principle of internal combustion engine operation has not changed since the engine structure was first developed. However, the system of blending the air and fuel into a mixture with the parameters ensuring effective fuel combustion processes has been evolving over the years. In the simplest engines, the fuel-air mixture was produced in the inlet manifold i.e. in the carburettor systems while the more advanced motors were equipped with the system of Single Point Injection (SPI), and further on with the Multi-Point Injection (MP!) where each of the cylinders has its own individual injector. The Multi-Point Injection (MPI) system has evolved into a Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) system where the injector sprays fuel directly into the combustion chambers. Presently, due to the restrictive regulations governing the issues of exhaust gases ' composition and emissions, manufacturers of the engines used mainly in the automotive industry apply the system of multi-point indirect injection to the intake manifold or the system of direct fuel injection to the combustion chambers. In both systems, these are the injectors dosing precise amounts offuel, which are the most important, and the most accurate elements of the system. The article presents the injectors' macro- and microscopic parameters used for the purpose of the fuel dispersants' technical condition and performance assessment. Additionally, it refers to direct and optical methods of microscopic parameters measurement enabling fuel spray diagnostics.

Diagnostic investigations of turbojet injectors

The basic aim of injectors is to supply a specified amount of fuel to the turbine engine combustion chamber. The fuel should be atomized to the extent which enables its evaporation and helps to produce a homogenous mixture of fuel vapour and air, thus ensuring high efficiency of the combustion process. The article contains the review of methods and diagnostic equipment used in Aviation Overhaul Works (Lotnicze Zak􀃡ady Remontowe) in assessing the suitability of turbine jet as well as turboprop and helicopter engines sprayers. Injectors are evaluated on the basis of their fuel delivery Q(p) which determines the volume of fuel sprayed in the time unit, the spray cone angle 􀈕(p) and the parameter J(p) which describes the asymmetry in the circumferential spray density distribution j(􀄮). These parameters are dependent both on structural characteristics of the sprayers as well as on fuel delivery pressure p in the fuel supply pipe. In the standard diagnostic stations, the measurement of fuel delivery Q(p) is carried out only for the two fuel supply pressures, corresponding to the extreme engine ranges, that is the rotational speed of the idle running nbj and maximum rotational speed nmax. Injectors undergo the leak test at the fuel pressure 5 to 10 times bigger than the nominal value. Tolerances adopted by the producers for the measured parameters characterizing the injectors are also presented.
