“…It was also noticed that the bigger the proportion of the biodiesel the longer the spray tip penetration. This result agrees with those in [3]- [5] and [14]. In [14] leads an increase in the fuel density to increase the spray length and decrease in the spray cone angle in the fully developed zone.…”

“…Besides the influence on the spray development, the fuel physical properties affect the hydraulic behaviour of the injector and thus on the injection rate and injection duration. Increasing the fuel density leads to a higher injection rate [12], [14][15], which can be theoretically concluded from Bernoulli's equation. Viscosity influence on the hydraulic behaviour of the injector is more complicated which causes a discrepancy in literature.…”

The present paper deals with the influence of fuel properties on the spray behaviour. This influence was studied experimentally using a common rail injection system from a medium speed diesel engine. The experiments have been performed with diesel fuel (EN-590) and heavy fuel oil (RMG 180) on a constant volume chamber at room temperature. Comparison of the spray characteristics shows that the heavy fuel oil penetrates deeper in the chamber. However, the diesel spray has a bigger cone angle. These results formed the basis for a further development of the 1D-model [1] to predict the spray penetration by considering the fuel properties and temperature.

“…11 Table 5. On one hand, the results have been compared to the theoretical ones derived from the dimensional analysis and used by several authors such as Wakuri et al [28], Dent [29], Hiroyasu and Arai [30], Naber and Siebers [20], Payri et al [31] or Dernotte et al [32]: all these correlations keep the same exponents for the studied variables. The most significant difference is obtained in the dependence on the spreading angle where the value of the related exponent c varied from 0.09 (from experimental results) to 0.5 (from literature).…”

In this work, three Engine Combustion Network (ECN) single-hole nozzles with the same nominal characteristics have been tested under a wide range of conditions measuring spray penetration and spreading angle. n-dodecane has been injected in nonevaporative conditions at different injection pressures ranging from 50 to 150 MPa and several levels of ambient densities from 7.6 to 22.8 kg/m 3 . Nitrogen and Sulphur Hexafluoride (SF 6 ) atmospheres have been explored and,in the first case, a temperature sweep from 300 to 550 K at constant gas density has been executed. Mie scattering has been used as the optical technique by employing a fast camera, whereas image processing has been performed through a home-built Matlab code. Differences in spray penetration related to spray orifice diameter, spreading angle and start of injection transient have been found for the three injectors. Significant differenceshave been obtained when changing the ambient gas, whereas ambient temperature hardly affects the spray characteristics up to 400 K. However, a reduction in penetration has been observed beyond this point, mainly due to the sensitivity limitation of the technique as fuel evaporation becomes important. The different behavior observed when injecting in different gases could be explained due to the incomplete momentum transfer between spray droplets and entrained gas, together with the fact that there is an important change in speed of sound for the different gases, which affects the initial stage of the injection.

Fuel injection systems in modern diesel engines are designed and built to comply with very stringent environmental standards. They should also meet the highest level of fuel economy. Drivability, rapid response and easy and accurate control are a common demand. Changing the fuel characteristics could affect the performance of the fuel injection system. This study focuses on the evaluation of fuel spray characteristics of straight used cooking oil (SUCO) and its blends with petroleum diesel (PD) as a surrogate for pure PD. Used cooking oil blends have quite different physical properties from those of pure PD. Data for the lower heating value (LHV), density and viscosity were obtained from laboratory analysis. These data were merged with the physical and thermodynamic conditions of the diesel engine of interest to evaluate the dynamic behaviour of the fuel jet in 360° of crank rotation namely, the compression stroke, and the power stroke including the injection process. Engine operational conditions were calculated using a diesel dual thermodynamic cycle taking into account fuel injection adjustment at three different speeds, namely, idle speed, maximum torque speed and rated power speed.The results showed that fuel jet characteristics vary with SUCO content in the fuel blend. Two ranges of SUCO content in the blends were distinguished, 0 -80% SUCO content and 80 -100% SUCO content. Both showed a constant rate of change of jet characters per 10% increase in SUCO content in the fuel blend. Lower rates of change of fuel characters were observed at 0-80% SUCO content. The higher the temperature, the lower the rate of change of fuel jet characteristics.
