  • FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM for CI ENGINES the Function of a Fuel
    FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM FOR CI ENGINES The function of a fuel injection system is to meter the appropriate quantity of fuel for the given engine speed and load to each cylinder, each cycle, and inject that fuel at the appropriate time in the cycle at the desired rate with the spray configuration required for the particular combustion chamber employed. It is important that injection begin and end cleanly, and avoid any secondary injections. To accomplish this function, fuel is usually drawn from the fuel tank by a supply pump, and forced through a filter to the injection pump. The injection pump sends fuel under pressure to the nozzle pipes which carry fuel to the injector nozzles located in each cylinder head. Excess fuel goes back to the fuel tank. CI engines are operated unthrottled, with engine speed and power controlled by the amount of fuel injected during each cycle. This allows for high volumetric efficiency at all speeds, with the intake system designed for very little flow restriction of the incoming air. FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS OF AN INJECTION SYSTEM For a proper running and good performance of the engine, the following requirements must be met by the injection system: • Accurate metering of the fuel injected per cycle. Metering errors may cause drastic variation from the desired output. The quantity of the fuel metered should vary to meet changing speed and load requirements of the engine. • Correct timing of the injection of the fuel in the cycle so that maximum power is obtained. • Proper control of rate of injection so that the desired heat-release pattern is achieved during combustion.

Inc. 0305-3091/81/0802-0067 $06.50/0 Printed in Great Britain APPLICATION OF HYBRID IC'S TO THE AUTOMOTIVE ELECTRONICS MARKET IN EUROPE ECKART VON RODA Robert Bosch GmbH, 7000 Stuttgart 30, Federal Republic of Germany In the last few years hybrids have been increasingly used in automotive electronics in Europe. With examples from the BOSCH and BLAUPUNKT production range their application in regulators, breakerless ignition modules, electronically-controlled fuel injection systems and car radios is illustrated. The elements and techniques used to assemble the hybrids, and the advantages which can be gained are discussed. 1 INTRODUCTION thick film ciruits though still purely resistance networks- secured a firm place in automotive The application of electronics, and especially electronics and even at this time enabled cost-saving microelectronics in motor vehicles, has the aim of matching of functions (Figure 1). increasing service value, ease of operation and safety, In 1978 a hybrid regulator was introduced (Figure of lessening the environmental impact of the vehicle 2). It is mounted in a hermetically-sealed metal housing and reducing the energy consumption, especially in approximately corresponding to TO 3 and consists only operation. This last point is especially topical at this of a small thick film board with a few conductors, 2 time. resistors and one IC, of a quench diode and of a Apart from the car radio, this development began in Europe in about 1967 when electronically-controlled fuel injection developed by BOSCH and transistorized ignition were first employed for engine control.
