Preface


Since the invention of the self-compressed ignition engine, the diesel engine has continuously integrated advanced technologies such as turbocharger, four-valve technology, EGR technology and high-pressure jet technology, and has become one of the most thermally efficient engines. At present, the diesel fuel injection system has evolved from the original mechanical fuel injection system to the most promising high-pressure common rail injection system, with the aim of increasing the area of evaporation and gasification to increase the combustion rate and reduce emissions. The formation of atomization directly affects the quality of the mixture in the fuel atomization cylinder, thereby affecting engine power, economy and emissions.


Favorable fuel atomization combustion is very important to improve the diesel engine power and release emissions. The existing research has shown that the fuel atomization characteristics of internal combustion engine are affected by the hole and turbulence in the nozzle hole. The greater the turbulence intensity near the outlet of the nozzle, the better the atomization effect, which can significantly affect the droplet size, spray cone angle and penetration distance. The morphology, geometry and distribution of the nozzle orifice have a certain influence on the cavity and turbulence disturbance in the nozzle, which in turn affects the atomization characteristics of the fuel.


In order to obtain better combustion effect, many scholars have carried out a lot of exploration on the factors affecting the injection pressure, the movement of the airflow in the cylinder, and the structure of the nozzle. The research on nozzles indicates that the geometry of the nozzle shape affects the evolution of in the nozzle multiphase flow, and affects the spray and combustion process. Therefore, improving the nozzle geometry is also an important way to improve the spray and combustion characteristics. The inner/outer cross-hole nozzles exhibit a good atomization effect in the spray atomization test, which is beneficial to improve the combustion of the diesel engine cylinder and realize the in-machine purification of pollutants, and has the value of further exploration.
Chapters 2-5 of this book introduce the study of internal flow and fuel atomization characteristics of coupled cross-nozzles, and study the influence of self-injection angle, injection pressure and combustion chamber pressure on the internal flow characteristics of cross-nozzle. On this basis, the combustion atomization characteristics of the cross-nozzle under the coupling nozzle are studied, including the angle of the sub-nozzle, the injection pressure and the influence of the combustion chamber pressure on the atomization characteristics. The flow characteristics of the two-phase flow in the cross-nozzle under steady state and transient state are studied in Chapters 6-7 of this book. The effects of length-diameter ratio, cross-angle and sub-nozzle shrinkage coefficient on internal flow characteristics are studied in detail. On this basis, the effects of pressure fluctuation replication, frequency and nozzle geometry on the internal flow characteristics of the intersecting orifice are studied.
