Abstract

By means of a purposely developed numerical code an investigation of injection systems in diesel engines has been carried out. Cavitation at low pressure was simulated. The experimental results obtained were compared with the numerical ones. Data on cavitation waves, in the pipe between pump and injector, were obtained during that simulation. In particular, the influence of the relief volume on cavitation volume and injected fuel rate were computed. Unstable working conditions, characterized by a large variation of the injected fuel, at the same operating point, have been experimentally investigated and simulated.
