Abstract
An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effects of ultra-high injection pressure on the penetration characteristics of diesel sprays and leading edge shock waves generated around the sprays that propagate in two modes. The visualization of the spray field using high-speed photography was carried out in the ultra-high pressure fuel injection system equipped with a diaphragm rupture atomizer. Schlieren imaging was used to visualize the shock waves. The experimental results indicated that the spray jet had stronger penetration momentum at higher pressures, but the penetration spacing diminished with increasing pressure between 200MPa and 400MPa (i.e., at ultra-high injection pressure). Furthermore, the penetration model proposed by Hiroyasu and Arai retained its predictive power at ultra-high pressures. Regarding the propagation behavior of the induced leading edge shock wave, two modes were observed: that of “spherical” and “oblique” shock waves—these can be characterized by different generation mechanisms and velocity distributions. Additionally, observing the effects of injection pressure on the penetration characteristics of the two modes yielded insight into the duration of the rapid ascent of spherical velocity and the correlations between the spray front angle θ, oblique shock angle β, and spray tip Mach number M in the oblique shock.
