A method of fuel injection rate shaping of the Diesel engine common rail fuel system with common rail injectors and solenoid control is proposed. The method envisages the impact on control current of impulses applied to the control solenoid valve of the common rail injectors for variation of the injection rate shape. At that, the fuel is supplied via two groups of injection holes. The entering edges of the first group with the coefficient of flow, ??B, were located in the sack volume and the entering edges of the second group (coefficient of flow, ??H) - on the locking taper surface of the nozzle body. The coefficients of flow, ??B, and ??H differ considerably and depend on the valve needle position. This enables to adjust the injection quantity by injection holes taking into account operating conditions of the Diesel engine and hence - by the combustion chamber zones. Using the constant fuel flow set-up, characteristic of the effective cross-section of the common rail fuel system injector holes was investigated. The diameter of injector holes was 0.12 ? 0.135 mm. The excessive pressure at the entering edges varied from 30 to 150 MPa and more and the excessive pressure in the volume behind the output edge - from 0 to 16 MPa.

A single cylinder DI (direct injection) diesel engine equipped with common-rail injection system was used to investigate the combustion and emission characteristics of biodiesel fuels. Tested fuels were conventional diesel and biodiesels obtained from unpolished rice oil and soybean oil. The volumetric blending ratios of biodiesel with diesel fuel are set at 0, 10, 20 and 40%. Experimental results show that the peak injection rate is reduced as the mixing ratio increased. The effect of the mixing ratio on the injection delay of biodiesel is not significant at the equal injection pressure. The peak combustion pressure was increased with the increase of the mixing ratio at an injection pressure of 100MPa. The ignition delay became shorter with the increase of the mixing ratio due to a higher cetane number of the biodiesel. HC and CO emissions are decreased at a high injection pressure. However, NOx emissions are increased at higher mixing ratios.

An experimental investigation was performed to analyze the effects of biodiesel-ethanol blended fuel spray on the combustion, and exhaust emission characteristics in a single cylinder common-rail diesel engine. In order to analyze the macroscopic and microscopic characteristics of biodiesel blended fuel spray, parameters, such as injection rate, droplet diameter, and spray tip penetration, were measured using an injection rate meter system, spray visualization, and droplet measuring system. Also, measurements of combustion, exhaust emissions, and size distributions of particulate matter were carried out under various engine operating conditions for biodiesel-ethanol blends and the results were compared with those of conventional diesel fuel. In this investigation, the measured results of biodiesel-ethanol blended fuel show that the Sauter mean diameter decreased with the increase of relative velocity between the injected fuel and the ambient gas. Comparing the combustion characteristics of diesel fuel and biodiesel-ethanol blended fuels, both diesel and blended fuel show similar trends of combustion pressure and rate of heat release. However, the combustion of biodiesel-ethanol blends indicated lower combustion characteristics, such as combustion pressures and heat release rates, than those of diesel fuel because of its lower heating value. In the case of exhaust gas recirculation, the indicated specific NOx(ISNOx) and soot concentration results showed lower emissions compared with those of conventional diesel fuel.

The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of mixing ratio and pilot injection on spray and combustion characteristics of biodiesel fuel and compared with those of diesel fuel in a direct injection common-rail diesel engine. In order to study the influence factors of biodiesel fuel on the spray and combustion characteristics, the experiments were conducted at various mixing ratios and injection conditions of the biodiesel and engine operating conditions. The macroscopic and microscopic characteristics such as injection rate, split injection effect, spray tip penetration, droplet diameter, and axial velocity distribution of biodiesel fuel were compared with the results of conventional diesel fuel by using spray visualization system composed of Ar-ion laser, ICCD camera and phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA) system. The combustion and exhaust emission characteristics of biodiesel fuel were studies using common-rail diesel engine with four cylinders. For the biodiesel blended fuel, it was revealed that higher injection pressure is needed to achieve the same injection rate at the higher mixing ratio. The spray tip penetration of biodiesel fuel was much the same with those of diesel. The atomization characteristics of biodiesel were inferior to conventional diesel fuel due to high viscosity and surface tension. The peak combustion pressures of both fuels were increased with advanced injection timing and the combustion pressure of biodiesel fuel is higher than that of diesel fuel. As the pilot injection timing is advanced to the TDC, the dissimilarities of both fuels combustion pressure are reduced. It can be also founded that the pilot injection can enhance the deteriorated spray and combustion characteristics of biodiesel fuel caused by physical fuel properties.
