摘要:
In one class of fuel injection systems, the individual fuel injectors cycle between high and low pressure during and between injection sequences in a given engine cycle. The fuel injectors may be hydraulically actuated, mechanically actuated, and possibly include common rail injectors equipped with an admission valve that enable the fuel injectors to cycle between high and low pressures. Many of these fuel injection systems also include a directly controlled nozzle valve that can apply or relieve pressure on a closing hydraulic surface associated with the nozzle valve. The nozzle valve is typically spring-biased and therefore has a pre-defined valve opening pressure that defines at what fuel pressure the nozzle valve will open when pressure is relieved on its closing hydraulic surface. While these fuel injection systems can produce a wide variety of rate shapes and injection sequences, generally, an injection sequence of particular interest is one that includes a relatively small volume pilot injection followed quickly in time by a relatively large volume main injection. In order to make the accuracy of the pilot injection more consistent, the nozzle valve is held closed while fuel pressure in the fuel injector builds and surpasses the valve opening pressure of the nozzle valve. This strategy helps to alleviate sensitivity of the pilot injection volume to inherent variability factors, such as geometrical tolerances, within and between fuel injectors.

A system and method controls injection of a reductant agent in a selective catalytic reduction system. The system and method include an injector injecting the reductant agent to an exhaust system directing exhaust from a power system. A coolant system circulates coolant proximate to the injector. A coolant temperature sensor monitors a coolant temperature of the coolant. A controller adjusts the injection timing of the injector based at least in part on the coolant temperature.

A fuel injector for a machine is disclosed. The fuel injector has a nozzle member with a first end and a second end. The first end of the fuel injector has at least one orifice. The fuel injector also has a control chamber located at the second end of the nozzle member with an end wall portion approximately orthogonal to an axial direction of the nozzle member. The fuel injector further has a port disposed in the end wall portion of the control chamber and at least one passageway in fluid communication with the control chamber via the port. The fuel injector additionally has a needle valve element with a tip end and a base end. The tip end is configured to selectively block fuel flow through the at least one orifice. The base end has a recess configured to cap off the port.

摘要:
An internal combustion engine (10) has an intake system (12) that includes a turbocharger (32). An engine control (30) processes data for controlling the opening of the exhaust valves (24) and for controlling fueling of the engine in relation to the engine operating cycle. In response to initiation of engine acceleration, the control increasingly retards exhaust valve opening in relation to the engine operating cycle to cause the turbocharger to increase pressure in the intake manifold (14) and increases engine fueling in relation to the increased pressure in the intake manifold.
摘要:
A turbocharger (32) creates intake manifold boost for a diesel engine (10) that has a variable valve actuation mechanism. At times, exhaust valve opening (EVO) is increasingly retarded in relation to the engine operating cycle (56) to cause the turbocharger to increase boost, engine fueling is also increased in relation to the increased boost (58), and in response to any incipient surging of the compressor resulting from such increasingly retarded exhaust valve opening and such increased engine fueling, compressed charge air is bled from the intake manifold through the combustion chambers to the exhaust system (62) to counter the incipient surging and thereby avoid any significant turbocharger surge. The bleeding is accomplished by keeping the exhaust valves (24) slightly open beyond the time that they would otherwise close.

An engine exhaust aftertreatment system including a mixer disposed in the exhaust stream. The mixer includes a mesh section having a mesh of wires and may include a baffle section having a deflector that redirects a direction of flow of the exhaust stream. The mesh section may not extend across an entire width of an exhaust conduit containing the exhaust stream. The mesh section may also be sized and located to intersect the reductant introduced by the injector.
