GDI pump with direct injection and port injection
Abstract:
In a hybrid fuel supply system for the same high pressure supply pump used for gasoline direct injection (DI) is also used to supply the port injection (PI) system. For a given pumping stroke, fuel can be delivered only to the DI system, only to the PI system, or a first portion can be delivered to the DI system and a second portion delivered to the PI system. The pumping chamber always fills to maximum volume. Fuel metering for DI is by a control valve, which when closed delivers fuel into the DI system and when opened “spills” pumped fuel into the PI system. Any “spill” at high pressure opens a pressure regulating valve in the PI system that dumps fuel at excess pressure to a low pressure region to maintain the PI system at a constant target pressure.
