A conventional gasoline direct injector is converted for gaseous fuel application. The conversion alters the injector characteristic which further affect the mixture formation and combustion processes. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of injection pressure (case 1), injection duration (case 2), and injection frequency (case 3) on the injector’s mass flow rate. An injector was independently tested by using an injector test bench. In Case 1, the injection pressure was tested from 20 bar to 60 bar at 24 ms of injection duration for 1000 injection counts. In Case 2, the injection duration was set from 2 to 24 ms at a constant 50 bar injection pressure for different engine speed. Whereas in Case 3, the averaged mass flow rate are plotted at different injection frequency. Theoretical calculations were carried out to compare the experimental and theoretical result. The experiment results shown that the injection pressure affected the injector mass flow rate linearly. At short injection duration, the mass flow rate inconsistent and highly fluctuated. At higher injection frequency, the mass flow rate is becoming higher. The theoretical results able to predict the mass flow rate trend but were unable to spot the fluctuating effects.

In the last few years, a significant research effort has been made for developing and enhancing Direct Injection (DI) for compressed natural gas (CNG) engines. Several research projects have been promoted by the European Community (EC) in this field with the objective of finding new solutions for the automotive market and also of encouraging a fruitful knowledge exchange among car manufacturers, suppliers and technical universities. This paper concerns part of the research activity that has been carried out by the Politecnico di Torino, AVL List GmbH and Siemens AG within the EC VII Framework Program (FP) InGAS Collaborative Project (CP), aimed at optimizing the control phase of a new injector for CNG direct injection, paying specific attention to its behavior at small injected-fuel amounts, i.e., small energizing times. The CNG injector which was developed within the research project proved to be suitable to be used in a DI SI engine, featuring a pent-roof combustion chamber head and a bowl in piston, with reference to both homogeneous and stratified charge formation. Fuel flow measurements made by AVL on the four-cylinder engine revealed a good linearity between injection duration and fuel mass-flow rate for injection durations above a reference value. In order to improve the injector characterization at short injection durations, an experimental and numerical activity was designed. More specifically, a multidimensional CFD model of the actual injector geometry was built by Politecnico di Torino, and purposely-designed simulation cases were carried out, in which the needle-lift time-history was defined on the basis of experimental measurements made by Siemens. The numerical model was validated on the basis of experimental data concerning the total injected-fuel amount under different conditions. Then, the model was applied in order to evaluate the dynamic flow characteristic by taking also the inner geometry of the injector valve group into account, so as to establish a correlation to the needle lift measurements done by Siemens for injector characterization. In the paper this dynamic behavior of the injector is analyzed, under actual operating conditions, and its impact on the nozzle injection capability is discussed. The simulation results did not show significant oscillations of the stagnation pressure upstream of the nozzle throat section, and thus the resultant mass-flow rate profile is almost proportional to the needle-lift one. As a consequence, in order to characterize the injector flow behavior in the nonlinear region (short injection duration), the measurement of needle lift is sufficient.

Pressure reducer merupakan komponen utama pada conversion kit pada mesin bahan bakar ganda (duel fuel engine) yang berfungsi sebagai penurun tekanan pada bahan bakar compressed Natural gas dari tangki sebesar ± 250 bar menjadi tekanan kerja pada injektor gas sebesar ± 2 bar, sehingga menyebabkan kekurangan pasokan jumlah bahan bakar dari pressure reducer yang berpengaruh tethadap penurunan performa mesin, baik pada saat perubahan putaran mesin secara tiba-tiba maupun perubahan beban mesin. Mengatasi permasalah tersebut maka diperlukan upaya untuk meningkatkan performa pressure reducer agar lebih adaptif terhadap perubahan kondisi mesin. Salah satu upaya yang dilakukan untuk peningkatan performa tersebut adalah menambah kekuatan konstanta pegas pada area chamber stage dua pressure reducer. Penelitian ini menggunakan mesin Diamond tipe DI 800 dengan sistem dual fuel model indirect injection. Metode yang dilakukan adalah menvariasikan kekuatan konstanta pegas (25,55 N/m, 26,55 N/m, dan 27,55 N/m). Hasil terbaik didapatkan pada konstanta pegas 27,55 N/m terjadi peningkatan jumlah laju aliran gas (mass flow rate) pada saluran keluar (outlet gas pressure reducer) sebesar 7,42%. Hal ini menunjukkan terjadi peningkatan performa pressure reducer pada saat penambahan kontanta pegas pada stage dua
