VARIABILITY OF THE DIESEL FUEL SPRAY MICROSTRUCTURE DURING THE INJECTION INTO STAGNANT AIR BY A TYPICAL DIESEL ENGINE INJECTOR
Journal Title: Journal of Machine Construction and Maintenance - Year 2018, Vol 109, Issue 2
Abstract
The article presents the results of a study on the distribution of Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) along the axis of an atomized diesel oil spray and changes in SMD occurring during the injection in selected cross-section of the spray. A piston fuel pump was used for atomization, while atomization quality measurements were made using a Malvern Spraytec particle analyzer. The results show that adopting averaged SMD values for the whole fuel spray charge does not reflect the actual range of droplet sizes in the area of highest volume concentration of droplets in a spray, i.e. the area having the greatest impact on the evaporation and combustion of fuel. It can be useful to designers of diesel engines and simulation of processes in combustion chamber.

The aim of this research was to examine the influence of process parameters of low-temperature plasma treatment on the permeability, stability, and antibacterial properties of polyamide membranes. As a result of the work...
EVALUATION OF A MARINE OBJECT PROPULSION SYSTEM PRELIMINARY DESIGN PROCESS USING AN ITERATION METHOD
The article shows the complexity of a marine object generating the necessity of multi-criteria optimization. Due to a great number of criteria and complexity of structure, the design process was classified as hierarchic...
OPERATION OF BRIQEETTING ROLLER PRESSES WITH AN ASYMMETRICAL COMPACTION UNIT
The key issue in the briquetting process in a roll press is to properly customise the working surface. The conventional symmetrical compaction units employed in roller presses are often unsuitable for the con...
