DIESEL FUEL - "NEW" APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS

Srećko Čulinović

Sažetak

Abstract
Increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements refer to a large extent also to diesel engine-powered vehicles. In this sense, they encompass requirements for improving:
- fuel consumption cost effectiveness
- exhaust emission
- noise emission.
Given the stringent character of the said requirements, as well as increasingly shorter deadlines within which they are to be met, the only possible solution is a synchronized improvement of vehicle design and fuel quality. The experts engaged in finding satisfactory solutions have recognized the areas within which maximum effects may be achieved. One of such areas is definitely the combustion control system. Through this system, the set requirements are approached by extreme lifting of the parameters responsible for prepairing the fuel and air mixture. All this has led to technological solutions highly sensitive to the physical and chemical impact of fuels on the elements of the system it comes into contact with.
Certain experiences in application call for the need to appreciate possible threats. The purpose of this paper is to briefly present new technological solutions for the diesel engine fuel injection systems, while pointing to potential problems. Special attention has been given to the quality features that may be responsible for the safety of applying diesel fuel in higly demanding modern engines.
