Technical service. The power supply system of diesel engines

 

9% of malfunctions of cars with diesel engines have power supply system. Typical defects include: breach of impermeability and fuel leak, especially in high pressure fuel line; air and especially fuel filters pollution; entering of oil in tube; wear and misalignment of plunger pairs of high-pressure pump; impermeability loss of the nozzles and the pressure decreasing of initial needle lifting; wear outlets of injector, and their coking and clogging. These malfunctions lead to start and supply change of fuel injection, uneven operation of the fuel pump to the angle and quantity of supplied fuel, deterioration of the atomization of fuel. What primarily causes an increase in opacity of the exhaust gases and in minor degree leads to increasing of fuel consumption and reducing engine power (3- 5%).

Control of power supply system includes: check of system tightness and condition of fuel and air filters; check of fuel pump; high-pressure pump and injectors. Leakage of the system is under high pressure, is checked visually by dripping of fuel with working engine.

Leakage from inlet part (from the tank to transfer pump), leading to air leaks and malfunction of fuel pumping equipment is checked by a special device. Part of the highway, which is under low pressure, can be checked for leaks when engine is off by pressure test of manual fuel pump.

Condition of dry air filters, installed on all of the latest car models, is checked by vacuum behind filter using a water piezometer (should be less than 700 mm water column).

Fuel filter condition can be checked in the first approximation while idling engine work by pressure behind filter part (allowed not less than 150 kPa), and more specifically by differential pressure before and behind filter (20 kPa). Lower pressure also indicates malfunction of transfer pump, which after a partition in a shop when tested on a special stand should provide (at 1050 rev / min) not less than 50 kPa, the pressure of not less than 400kPa and feeding at least 25 cm by 100 working strokes (given the standards - for eight-cylinder engines MAZ and KamAZ). Control of high-pressure pump and injectors on the vehicle is carried out in excess of the engine regulations on smoke, and in aim to identify faults and optimize the impact of technical maintenance and repair of the fuel equipment. The most widely used method based on the analysis of changes in pressure, attached using a special sensor that establishes at the nozzle of injector. Diagnosing by this method is carried out by simplified analog devices with a one built-in sensors and stroboscope (type K261), provides: a certain speed of the crankshaft of the engine; setting of fuel injection timing; possibility of verifying quality of speed controller, and an automatic clutch of fuel injection timing, and pressure start of injection for each cylinder (the interchange of the sensor). Less common are diesel-testers with oscilloscope and simultaneous installation of sensors on all the nozzles because of complexities of installing and removing sensors. In the absence of diagnostic tools for reducing opacity is necessary to carry out maintenance work, mainly on injectors and high-pressure pump by their removal and subsequent tests in a workshop.

The nozzle is checked: for leaks at a pressure of 30 MPa, while pressure drop time of 28 to 23 MPa should be not less than 8; at the beginning of recovery (injection pressure), which shall be (16.5 ± 0.5) MPa for engines KamAZ for the quality of the spray, which must be clear, mist and even the cross-section of the cone, have a typical "metallic" sound. Pressure of injection nozzle is adjusted by changing the thickness of shims mounted at the spring or through the adjusting nut. The most difficult and responsible are the cycle checking and adjustment of the high pressure pump to filing start, its regularity and proper fuel supply carried out on special stands. Inaccuracy of interval between the beginning of each fuel supply relative to the first section does not exceed 20, and the unevenness at installation of rail in position of maximum supply - not more than 5%. On the stand are governed launcher and maximum cyclic fuel supply, as well as work fuel regulator (off the fuel supply when the engine is stopped, the automatic fuel shut off in fixing a maximum engine speed of the engine and start the frequency of the automatic controller). Mounting of high pressure pump to the engine is carried out using momentoskope - glass tube with an inner diameter of 1.5 - 2.0 mm installed at the outlet choke 1st or previous order of pump section, at the time of fuel appearance in which clutch are fixed that the angle is 16-19 to VMT1- cylinder. Successful completion of the works provides (with proper adjustment valves and a good engine compression) minimum and maximum smoke opacity and maximum efficiency of the diesel engine.

Serving of HPFP (high pressure fuel pump)

It was found that the cause of excessive smoke exhausted gas is insufficient accuracy of adjustment of high pressure fuel pump at repair, and significant deviations in magnitude bandwidth workers (installed on diesel) and fuel injectors. Consequently, there is a particularly large unevenness at largest fuel supply cycle between the individual cylinders of a diesel engine, which leads to an increase in specific fuel consumption (fuel efficiency degradation). The main bit of errors in adjustment of HPFP and nozzles on the motorless stand to make a nozzle are caused by nozzles with high-pressure fuel pipes, to fill this gap in the international practice of standardization used DTA (system control samples). This system reduces errors in adjustment of fuel equipment. However, the use of stand`s standards required to make adjustments to the values of cycle feeds of high pressure fuel pumps with the completeness stand`s standards. In this paper, the technique of adjusting pump and adjusting the parameters of the table formed by adjusting the parameters of the injection pump. Only by fine-fixed HPFP and regulator can achieve the best balance of power and fuel consumption of a diesel engine in compliance with increasingly stringent regulations for exhaust emission levels. Standard ISO sets the general conditions for testing HPFP and characteristics of the test stand, showing especially high demands on the rigidity and uniformity of the drive. Increasing power consumption of HPFP due to increase of maximum pump pressure increases the demands on a test bench. High power electric drive, a massive flywheel and precise speed control ensures good stability test parameters.
