Abstract:
A fluid injection system includes a fluid injector assembly, a fluid conditioning module having an outlet port that is fluidly coupled to an inlet port of the fluid injector assembly via an injector assembly inlet conduit. The fluid injection system further includes a flush conduit fluidly coupled to the outlet port of the fluid conditioning module, a flush valve disposed in the flush conduit and configured to control a flowrate of fluid therethrough, and a controller operatively coupled to the fluid conditioning module and the flush valve, the controller being configured to adjust a flowrate of a fluid through the injector assembly inlet conduit by controlling a flowrate of fluid through the flush conduit.
Abstract:
A fluid pump system for a fluid delivery system is disclosed. The fluid pump system includes a drive cylinder and a drive piston slidably disposed in the drive cylinder. A drive rod including a crowned end is connected to the drive piston. The fluid system further includes a pump cylinder and a pump piston slidably disposed in the pump cylinder. A pump rod including a crowned end is connected to the pump piston. The drive rod and the pump rod are configured to be detachably coupled to each other, wherein the crowned end of the drive rod cooperates with the crowned end of the pump rod.
Abstract:
A fluid conditioning system includes a first filter mount having a first filter inlet port and a first filter outlet port, a first motor, a first pump operatively coupled to the first motor, a second filter mount having a second filter inlet port, a second pump, and a controller operatively coupled to the first motor. The controller is configured to operate the first pump at a flowrate that is higher than a flowrate of the second pump. An outlet of the first pump is fluidly coupled to the first filter inlet port via a first filter inlet conduit, and an inlet of the first pump is fluidly coupled the first filter outlet port via a first filter outlet conduit. An inlet of the second pump is fluidly coupled to the first filter outlet port via the first filter outlet conduit.
Abstract:
A fuel injector may include a nozzle assembly and a body. The body may have a fuel inlet, a nozzle supply passage fluidly coupled to the nozzle assembly, and an internal surface defining a chamber within the body. The fuel inlet may be fluidly coupled to the nozzle supply passage via the chamber. The fuel inlet defines an inlet dimension and the chamber defines a chamber dimension, the chamber dimension being larger than the inlet dimension.
Abstract:
A pump includes a housing having an internal surface defining a volute configured to receive a pump impeller therein, an extension tube fluidly coupled to the volute, a wall of the extension tube having an internal surface disposed opposite an external surface, and a bonnet having an internal surface defining a first inlet aperture and a second inlet aperture therethrough, the first inlet aperture and the second inlet aperture being in fluid communication with the volute via the extension tube. The internal surface of the bonnet and the external surface of the extension tube define a bonnet flow path therebetween, the first inlet aperture of the bonnet being in fluid communication with the volute via the bonnet flow path.
Abstract:
A fluid injection system includes a fluid injector assembly; a fluid conditioning module having an outlet port that is fluidly coupled to an inlet port of the fluid injector assembly; an injector assembly outlet conduit fluidly coupled to an outlet port of the fluid injector assembly and disposed downstream of the fluid injector assembly, the injector assembly outlet conduit defining a pressure measurement port and a flow-restricting orifice, the pressure measurement port being disposed upstream of the flow-restricting orifice along the direction of fluid flow through the fluid injector assembly; a pressure sensor fluidly coupled to the pressure measurement port; and a controller operatively coupled to the fluid conditioning module and the pressure sensor. The controller is configured to adjust a flowrate of a fluid through the injector assembly inlet conduit based on a pressure signal from the pressure sensor.
