Test Cell Conditions
The test cell is arranged to test
the engines under ideal conditions relating to the diesel
fuel delivery system. The test cell fuel tanks are stationary
and located six (6) to ten (10) feet above the engine.
This setup provides two things that do not exist in the
real world. One, positive fuel pressure to the injection
pump. Two, diesel fuel free from fuel vapor and entrained
air. This is directly related to the stationary fuel
tank. With no agitation there is virtually no entrained
air in the fuel and with the fuel being at a positive
pressure to the pump, no fuel vapor is being produced!!
Real World Conditions
In the real world, the fuel tanks
are usually mounted at least two (2) feet below and ten
(10) feet away from the fuel pump, This configuration
creates multiple problems associated with the fuel delivery
to the engine. First, the injection pump has to draw
the fuel from the tank by creating a vacuum. When diesel
fuel is drawn by a vacuum fuel vapor is produced. Second,
while the vehicle is underway the fuel is sloshing around
in the fuel tanks creating entrained air. This circumstance
has created a situation far from the test cell conditions
which results in air and vapor being mixed in with the
fuel when it is delivered to the injector. By having
entrained air and air vapor in the fuel the engine does
not perform at the engine manufacturer's specification.
Air and fuel vapor occupy the space that should have
pure fuel, thus delaying the injection of fuel into the
combustion chamber. This phenomenon is better known as "RETARDED
TIMING." The air/vapor present in fuel is very inconsistent
making it virtually impossible to adapt the varying degrees
of changes in injection timing. The retarded injections
cause a multitude of problems in the combustion chamber!
