Abstract
The fuel injection timing IT is changed based operation and environmental condition of the engine. If the injection timing IT is changed, the rate of fuel passing through meshes of the mesh member (i.e., the mesh passing rate) changes. If the mesh passing rate changes, the set-off position (i.e., the ignition position of the air-fuel mixture) is extended or shortened. Based on this, under the condition of high ignition performance (i.e., the second condition), the mesh passing rate is controlled to increase thereby the set-off position is extended. On the other hand, under the condition of low ignition performance (i.e., the first condition), the mesh passing rate is controlled to decrease thereby the extension of the set-off position is suppressed or prohibited.
Claims4
A control system for diesel engine comprising:
- a nozzle part which includes a fuel injection hole formed;
- a piston which includes a cavity facing the nozzle part, the cavity being formed in a central portion at a top surface of the piston;
- a continuously cylindrical mesh member which is provided in the cavity on the central portion at the top surface of the piston and is configured to surround the nozzle part in a crank angle where the piston raises up to a position of the nozzle part;
- a rate change device which is configured to change passing rate of injected fuel passing through meshes of the mesh member;
- and
- a control device which is configured to control the rate change device,
- wherein the control device is further configured to control the rate change device such that the passing rate of the injected fuel under a first condition is lower than that under a second condition,
- wherein the ignition performance under the first condition is lower than that under the second condition.
