Fault Modes of Diesel Engine Mechanical Fuel Injection System 2

This article continues to introduce the main factors that cause diesel engine failures in the mechanical fuel injection pump fuel supply system of diesel engines.

3. Diesel generator injector needle valve components: Needle valve components are prone to malfunction during operation due to the erosion of high-pressure diesel and high-temperature gas, grinding of mechanical impurities, and impact of needle valve springs.


a. Wear of needle valve components (fuel injectors): The parts where needle valve components often wear are the sealing cone surface, needle valve guide part, and the inverted cone that plays a role in atomization. The wear of the sealing cone surface is caused by the impact of the fuel injector spring and the scouring effect of impurities in diesel. After the wear of the sealing cone surface, the sealing performance deteriorates, causing the pressure in the pressure chamber at the head of the fuel injection nozzle to not increase, resulting in poor atomization and oil dripping, causing black smoke and carbon deposition at the head of the fuel injection nozzle in the diesel engine. In addition, when the sealing performance of the fuel injector deteriorates, high-pressure gas can easily enter the interior of the injector, and in severe cases, it can burn out the injector or cause fuel coking, causing the needle valve to jam.


The wear of the needle valve and fuel injector guide part is caused by the grinding effect of impurities brought in by diesel. Most of the wear occurs at the lower end of the guide section. If the wear is severe, it will increase the return oil volume of the fuel injector, reduce the fuel supply, decrease the injection pressure, delay the injection time, etc., causing a decrease in diesel engine power and even inability to work under load.


b. Needle valve jamming: The main reasons for needle valve jamming include blockage due to nozzle overheating, deformation of the needle valve, and poor cooling in diesel engines with excessive load, high working temperature, and poor cooling; If the lift of the needle valve is too long, the seating time will be extended. Before seating, the diesel pressure in the inner chamber is lower than the pressure in the cylinder, so gas will flow back into the inner chamber from the injection hole, causing the needle valve to jam; The needle valve inside the fuel injector is stuck due to impurities brought in by diesel or severe carbon accumulation near the injection hole; The fuel injector spring becomes soft or the fuel injection pressure is adjusted too low, causing the needle valve to not close in time, gas to enter the nozzle, causing the needle to burn out, deform, and become stuck.


If the needle valve gets stuck when it is in the open state, the fuel spray from the fuel injector will not atomize well, and the combustion will not be complete, resulting in black smoke; At the same time, unburned fuel will also flush the oil on the cylinder wall, accelerating the wear of cylinder liners and other parts.


If the needle valve gets stuck in the closed state, no matter how high the pressure of the fuel injection pump is, it cannot open the needle valve, making the cylinder unable to work, and causing the fuel injection pump to make noise due to high pressure, or even damage the fuel injection pump, causing the high-pressure fuel pump to vibrate.

What Is the Difference Between Electric Motor and Electric Generator

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force. In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction. An electric generator operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. Electric generator can be divided into various type, open type, silent type, trailer type, portable type and container type, etc. Electric generator is mainly composed of diesel engine & alternator. Electric generator set is mainly composed of engine, alternator, control module, and common base. Electric generator :- Electric generator is a type of machine which converts mechanical input (energy) into electrical output (...

Baudouan Weichai 1530KW Diesel Generator Set 16M33 Series Engine

Weichai is the earliest enterprise in China to develop and produce generator sets, with a production history of over 60 years. It mainly produces land - based and marine generator sets, including diesel - type and gas - type units. Weichai's M33 series engines include 6M33, 12M33, and 16M33 diesel engines. These are high - power high - speed diesel engines independently developed by Weichai based on the mature product platform of Baudouin's M26 series in France. The development of this series of models fills the gap in Weichai's high - speed diesel engines for power generation in the 500 - 1530kW power range, enabling effective competition with foreign brands. The M33 series Weichai engines inherit and carry forward the advanced product development and design concepts of the French Baudouin M26. They are benchmarked against international advanced engines, effectively avoiding various design defects. The product development emphasizes high reliability and low emissions. Th...

How to Connect A Diesel Generator to Your House?

Diesel generators are fuel-efficient and reliable, which can almost meet the power needs of any application. If you want to power the whole house during power shortages, it’s a good choice to choose a diesel generator set as the backup electricity supply. But how to connect a diesel generator to your house? Read on and you will find the answer. Options to connect a diesel generator to your home   Keep in mind that never plug your generator directly into the mains, or it will cause back feeding, damage your appliances and be life-threatening for utility workers. Generally, you can choose to connect a generator to your house by using extension cords or a transfer switch. Understanding the difference between them is helpful for you to choose the right type. Extension cords   Typically, extension cords are suitable for smaller diesel generators that used for short term. They require no installation and are cost-effective. If you need to power only some basic appliances such as...
