    摘要: An engine control device is provided. A fuel injection valve performs a pre-injection and a main injection on a retarding side of the pre-injection so that pressure waves resulting from combustions caused by the injections cancel each other out. The control device secures a fuel injection amount to be supplied to a combustion chamber in one cycle by at least the pre-injection, the main injection, and a middle injection. The control device causes the fuel injection valve to perform the pre-injection at a timing when a piston is located at an advancing side of compression top dead center for premix combustion, to start the main injection during a combustion period of the fuel injected by the pre-injection for diffuse combustion, and to perform the middle injection at a timing between the other two injections with a fuel injection amount less than the other injections.

    摘要: An engine combustion chamber structure includes a combustion chamber of an engine and a fuel injection valve. The fuel injection valve injects fuel toward a cavity in a crown face of a piston. The cavity includes a first cavity provided in a radially central region of the crown face with a first bottom having a first depth, a second cavity provided in an outer side of the first cavity with a second bottom having a second depth being smaller than the first depth, a connecting portion, and a standing wall region disposed further in a radially outer side than the second bottom of the second cavity. The second bottom is provided lower than an upper end, of the connecting portion. A lower section of the standing wall region is provided further in a radially inner side than an upper edge of the standing wall region.

    摘要: The control device that controls fuel injection of a diesel engine includes a split injection control module that causes a fuel injection valve to execute pre-injection and post-injection, a setting module that sets a fuel injection amount or a fuel injection timing in the pre-injection so that a target heat release rate characteristic, by which a ratio between a first peak and a second peak, which are peaks of an increase rate of combustion pressure accompanying the pre- and post-injection, becomes a target value set in advance, can be obtained, a prediction module that predicts an occurrence time or a peak value of the first peak based on the injection amount or injection timing and a parameter related to a combustion environmental factor, and a correction module that corrects the fuel injection amount or the fuel injection timing set by the setting module.

    摘要: A control system of an engine is provided, which includes a piston formed with a cavity and configured to reciprocate in a cylinder along a center axis of the cylinder, and a fuel injector disposed facing a top surface of the piston and configured to inject fuel along an injection axis. When the piston is located near a top dead center of compression stroke, the fuel injector performs a first injection so that the fuel flows from the fuel injector toward the cavity along the injection axis, collides with an inner surface of the cavity, then flows back toward the fuel injector along the inner surface of the cavity from a position offset from the injection axis. The fuel injector performs a second injection toward the cavity at a timing after the first injection and at which the fuel of the first injection flows back.

    摘要: A control device for a compression ignition engine is provided, which causes an injector to perform a pre-injection and a main injection, sets fuel injection timings of these injections so that an interval between a first peak of a heat release rate resulting from the combustion of fuel injected by the pre-injection and a second peak of the heat release rate resulting from the combustion of fuel injected by the main injection becomes an interval to make pressure waves caused by these combustions cancel each other out, and when an increase of an intake air temperature is detected, controls the injector to reduce the injection amount of the pre-injection and retard the injection timing of the pre-injection compared with a case where the increase of the intake air temperature is not detected under a condition that engine load and speed are the same.

    摘要: A diesel engine system has a piston in which a cavity is formed in a crown surface. The cavity has a bottom part, a peripheral part dented so as to be convex radially outward in a cross-sectional view, and a lip part formed above the peripheral part and protruding so as to be convex radially inward in the cross-sectional view. An injection controller causes an injector to perform, during operation in a given operating range, a main injection in which injected fuel is directed to the lip part, and an after-injection in which a smaller amount of fuel than the main injection is injected at a given period later than the main injection in an expansion stroke. An injection interval period that is a period of time from an end of the main injection to a start of the after-injection is shorter as an injection pressure of fuel increases.

The cylinder head is formed with an intake port so as to generate a swirl flow within the cylinder. The crown surface of the piston is formed with a cavity which is recessed toward an opposite side of the cylinder head and which has a circular shape in planar view, and a notch which is recessed radially outward from a peripheral edge of the cavity. The fuel injector is formed with an injection hole oriented toward an inside of the cavity.

The wall surface has a central ridge portion bulging farther toward a bottom surface of a cylinder head toward a center of the cavity, a periphery concave portion formed radially outward of the central ridge portion to concave radially outward, and a lip portion formed between the periphery concave portion and an opening edge of the cavity to convex radially inward. An outer circumferential part of the crown surface has a first portion and a second portion located radially outward of the first portion. A stepped portion is formed between the first and second portions. A stepped portion volume ratio of a stepped portion volume to a top dead center volume is set to 0.1 or smaller.
