    Abstract: A fuel injector includes an injector housing defining a longitudinal axis, and including a body piece having formed therein a fuel inlet defining a transverse axis intersecting the longitudinal axis. The injector housing further includes a nozzle having formed therein a plurality of spray outlets, and including a nozzle terminal tip. The injector housing further includes a locating surface axially inward of the nozzle terminal tip and extending circumferentially around the nozzle. A first axial distance (AD) is defined between an intersection of the transverse axis and the longitudinal axis, and the nozzle terminal tip. An exposed tip length axial distance (TL) is defined between the locating surface and the nozzle terminal tip. A ratio of AD to TL is from 8.06 to 8.34.

    Abstract: A flow mixing device includes a body having a first end, a second end, and an interior volume defined between them. An inlet plate, coupled to the first end of the body, defines at least two inlet orifices in fluid communication with the interior volume. Similarly, an outlet plate, coupled to the second end defines an outlet passage of the flow mixing device. A diffuser conduit, coupled to the inlet plate, defines an inlet passage disposed in fluid communication with the respective inlet orifices. A separator plate assembly disposed in the interior volume extends partially between the first and second ends of the body. Flow guiding vanes, coupled proximal to the second end, extend partially within the diffuser conduit.

    Abstract: A method of increasing parasitic load on an internal combustion engine includes injecting a fuel into a combustion chamber of an active cylinder of the internal combustion engine, combusting the injected fuel in the combustion chamber of the active cylinder, and determining that increasing a temperature of an exhaust aftertreatment device is required. The method includes increasing a parasitic load on the internal combustion engine by deactivating a cylinder, wherein no fuel is injected in the deactivated cylinder for a combustion cycle of the internal combustion engine, and further increasing the parasitic load by pulsing a spill valve member of a spill valve of a fuel injector in the deactivated cylinder between a fully closed position and an at least partially open position.

    Abstract: A machine includes a VGT and a controller. The controller monitors, based on causing the VGT to operate according to the non-dynamic control scheme, a plurality of hardware limit parameters associated with an engine of the machine. The controller determines that a hardware limit parameter, of the plurality of hardware limit parameters, satisfies a dynamic threshold for the hardware limit parameter and thereby causes the VGT to operate according to a dynamic control scheme. The controller then monitors the plurality of hardware limit parameters and thereby determines that each hardware limit parameter, of the plurality of hardware limit parameters, satisfies a non-dynamic threshold for the hardware limit parameter. The controller therefore causes the VGT to operate again according to the non-dynamic control scheme.
