Abstract

These researches are to investigate the design component on diesel injector, identify the fuel preparation system and evaluate the injector fuel spray pattern. Nowadays, diesel is no longer used for heavy vehicles such as buses and trucks. In fact, the diesel has been widely used for passenger vehicles as it has better fuel efficiency and can pull heavy loads easily compared to petrol engine. Biodiesel is renewable fuel that can be used instead of diesel fuel and made from palm oil, recycled cooking oil, soy bean, vegetables oil and animal fats. It is an additive to standard diesel fuel that can be used with little or no modification. Biodiesel is environmental friendly as it does not have sulphur content and high biodegradability. The common rail injection system test rig has been designed to test with biodiesel as it has better combustion efficiency. Furthermore, one of the parts in the common rail injection system which are the fuel injector has been studied thoroughly. The experiment on three fuel injector have been conducted in order to know the functionality and to obtain a spray pattern. The fuel injectors used are completed fuel injector, fuel injector without nozzle needle and BMW injector.
