Beyond Euro VI - Development of A Next Generation Fuel Injector for Commercial Vehicles 2014-01-1435

Delphi Diesel Systems (DDS) - Heavy Duty Business is developing a new range of Ultra High Pressure Common Rail Fuel Injectors with the functionality to allow the combustion heat release to be heavily adapted during operation. This allows the injector performance to be simultaneously optimised across a broad range of engine conditions, removing the constraints of having to select a single rate shape type for all operating conditions. This new technology range builds on the performance of Delphi's 2700 bar Fuel Systems of F2E, F2P and F2R, whilst adding in new levels of injector control, beyond what is available in the current market. In addition to this new functionality, Delphi's new Heavy Duty Injector range also demonstrates greatly reduced leakage and improved accuracy of fuel control. This paper reviews the benefits and possibilities of this new injector technology.
