Abstract: An innovative hydraulic layout for high-pressure fuel injection systems has been developed. The rail has been removed from the high-pressure circuit of standard Common Rail injection apparatus in order to have: reduced production costs, easy installation on the engine and a fast dynamic response of the injection system during engine transients. The innovative high-pressure pump has been machined with extra delivery ports in order to obtain direct connection with each of the injector feeding pipes. A special pump delivery-chamber, featuring an adequate volume, was designed to provide the minimum hydraulic capacitance required for a proper control of the high-pressure in the system.
