fuel delivery/supply system

Feed and drain line damping in a fuel delivery system

A fuel delivery system for a diesel engine for controlling the propogation of unwanted pressure waves including a fuel pump for sequentially delivering fuel from a fuel tank to a plurality of fuel injectors through a plurality of injection lines. The system further includes a drain line, one associated with each fuel injector, that is connected to a pressure source, wherein the impedance of each drain line is equal to the impedance of its corresponding injection line. Each drain line further includes a flow restriction having an impedance which bears a preselected relationship to but different from the impedance of its corresponding drain line and a valve, connected across the flow restriction for diverting flow around the flow restriction during intervals of time when fuel is flowing from the pressure source towards a particular one of the fuel injectors.

According to SuperFlow’s Harold Bettes, a rough rule of thumb is that the fuel-delivery system requires 8 psi of system pressure for every g of acceleration to maintain fuel flow. You can therefore see that, given a low-pressure 8-psi fuel system pushing against a 1g launch, there could easily be no fuel flow in the system during the time the car is experiencing that g force. The engine is forced to pull fuel only from the float bowl, dropping the float level and leaning the air/fuel ratio.
