Adaptation and Validation of Injection Rate Predictive Model for Solenoid Type Injectors with Different Nozzle Geometry

Abstract:

The present research analyses the injection rate of a direct rail injection diesel engine, focusing specifically on the influence of the nozzles and various operating conditions from real road tests on the rate of injection. A diesel injector test bench was used for feedback with real data from the test vehicle under real road conditions. An analysis of the behaviour of the injection rate was carried out using the zero-dimensional model. This model generated a predictive model that incorporated the five variables identified through a developed multivariate analysis of variance, showing a high correlation of dependence between variations in injection pressure, the diameter of the holes, and the number of holes with greater representativeness. The results obtained showed that the nozzle geometry and the physical properties of the fuel had a direct effect on the injection rate. This analysis enriches the understanding of fuel injection and its effects on diesel engine performance by providing an analysis of the system components that influence the injection rate and generating a simple tool to feed thermodynamic diagnostic models. The proposal model may be used as an input in thermodynamics predictive models and reduce the simulation load in computational fluid dynamics predictive models.
