INTRODUCTION:The fuel-injection system is the most vital component
in the working of IC engine.
The engine performance, power o/p , economy etc isgreatly dependent on the effectiveness of the fuel-
injection system.Basically the purpose of caruretion ! fuel-injection is
the same i.e. preparation of the comustile charge.But in case of caruretion fuel is atomi"ed yprocesses relying on the air speed greater than fuel
speed at the fuel no""le , whereas in fuel-injection thefuel speed at the point of delivery is greater than theair speed to atomi"e the fuel.

Diesel Fuel
If you have ever compared diesel fuel andgasoline, you know that they are different.
They certainly smell different.
#iesel fuel is heavier and oilier.
#iesel fuel evaporates much more slowly thangasoline -- its oiling point is actually higher thanthe oiling point of water.
$ou will often hear diesel fuel referred to as %dieseloil% ecause it is so oily.

DIESEL FUEL
#iesel fuel evaporates more slowly ecause it isheavier.
It contains more caron atoms in longer chains
than gasoline does &gasoline is typically C'()*,while diesel fuel is typically C+(*.
It takes less refiningto create diesel fuel, whichis why it is generally cheaper than gasoline.

DIESEL FUEL#iesel fuel must meet an entirely differentset of standards than gasoline.
The fuel in a diesel engine is not ignitedwith a spark, ut is ignited y the heatgenerated y high compression.

In common rail system a high pressurefuel pump delivers fuel to anaccumulator, whose pressure is keptconstant with the help of a pressureregulating valve.
common rail or a pipe starts from theaccumulator ! leads to the different
distriuting elements for each cylinder.

Eor each cylinder there is a separate metering !
timing element which is connected to an automaticinjector injecting fuel into the cylinder.
In the common rail system the supply pressure of
the fuel is independent of speed ! hence is notaffected y the fuel pump.
The amount of fuel entering the cylinder isregulated y varying the length of the push rodstroke.

The asic principle of thermosyphon can e e;plained withrespect to figure. (eat is supplied to the fluid in the tank .Because of the relatively lower density, the hot fluidtravels up, its place eing taken up y comparatively coldfluid from the tank B through the pipe p).
The hot fluid flows through the pipe p+ to the tank Bwhere it gets cooled. Thus the fluid circulated through thesystem in the form of convection currents.

Two types of fins used to cover the cylinder.
The length of fins ! the spacing /w them is 3uite importantfor efficient cooling .
4arger inter-spacing /w the fins offers larger area for coolingair ut the heating of the air is less, so more cooling air isre3uired.
maller interspacing /w the fins results in smaller flow areafor cooling air ! hence air is heated more ! input to the
cooling air is less.
(owever, the pressure drop re3uired for flow is more. If thedistance /w two fins is 3uite small the laminar layer of theopposite area come in contact with each other ! the efficiencyof the fins is reduced very much. Therefore ,a spacing less
than ).7mm is not used.
The height of the fins controls the distance /w the twocylinders and hence, the si"e of the engine. >sually the finheight varies from +7 to )7mm.

ROLE OF R&DI&TORS:
The function of the radiator is to reject coolantheat to the outside air.&y conduction ! forcedconvection ! not y radiation
The cooling effect in a radiator is achieved ydispersing the heated coolant into fine streamthrough the radiator core so that relatively small3uantities of coolant are rought in contact withlarge metal surface areas which in turn arecooled y a stream of air.
It should e noted that it is easier o transfer
heat from water to the metal surfacesthan frommetal surface to air.
