Abstract
A diesel fuel injector based on a hollow spray structure induced by vortex cavitation in a nozzle, including a needle valve, a nozzle body, a plurality of spray holes, and a sac chamber. An axis of the needle valve coincides with an axis of the nozzle body. The spray holes are evenly distributed on a head of the nozzle body, and each have a converging conical structure. An inlet end of the spray hole is communicated with the sac chamber. The sac chamber consists of a hemispherical cavity and a cylindrical cavity.
Claims2
A diesel fuel injector based on a hollow spray structure induced by vortex cavitation in a nozzle, comprising:
- a needle valve;
- a nozzle body;
- a plurality of spray holes;
- and
- a sac chamber;
- wherein an axis of the needle valve coincides with an axis of the nozzle body;
- the plurality of spray holes are evenly distributed on a head of the nozzle body, and each have a converging conical structure;
- an inlet end of each of the plurality of spray holes is communicated with the sac chamber;
- the sac chamber is hemispherical, or consists of a hemispherical cavity and a cylindrical cavity with the same diameter as the hemispherical cavity;
- a radius of the hemispherical cavity is R, and a height of the sac chamber is H;
- and 0<R≤H;
- a diameter of the inlet end of each of the plurality of spray holes is Din;
- a vertical distance between a center of a cross section of the inlet end of each of the plurality of spray holes and a bottom end of the sac chamber is h, and h<H;
- a distance between a bottom end face of the needle valve and an intersection of an axis of each of the plurality of spray holes and the axis of the needle valve is l;
- wherein when ll≤0, H>1.5Din;
- R<½H;
- and h>Din;
- when l0>0, 1.5Din<H<5Din;
- R>⅗H;
- and 1.2Din<h<3Din;
- and
- when l0<0 and l1>0, 1.5Din<H<5Din;
- t R>⅗H;
- and 1.2Din<h<3Din;
- wherein l0 is a minimum value of the l, and l1 is a maximum value of the l when the needle valve reaches a maximum lift;
- a head of the needle valve is conical or truncated cone-shaped;
- when the head of the needle valve is conical, a conical vertex angle is an included angle θn of the head of the needle valve, and 60°≤θn<90°;
- and when the head of the needle valve is truncated cone-shaped, an included angle between two generatrixes of a cross section passing through an axis of the head of the needle valve is the included angle θn of the head of the needle valve, and θn≤60°;
- and
- l=0 indicates that the intersection of the axis of each of the plurality of spray holes and the axis of the needle valve is located at the bottom end face of the needle valve;
- l<0 indicates that the intersection of the axis of each of the plurality of spray holes and the axis of the needle valve is located above the bottom end face of the needle valve;
- l>0 indicates that the intersection of the axis of each of the plurality of spray holes and the axis of the needle valve is located below the bottom end face of the needle valve;
- when the needle valve is seated, the l reaches the minimum value l0;
- as fuel injection starts, the needle valve is lifted and the l gradually increases until the needle valve reaches the maximum lift, and at this time the l reaches the maximum value l1;
- and in an ending stage of the fuel injection, the l is gradually reduced from l1 to l0.
