Abstract: The effects of different injector nozzle angles, impinging distances between nozzle and piston top surface, the combustion chamber reentrant radius and convexity angles on spray characteristics after diesel impinging on the combustion chamber walls were investigated through schlieren photography with high speed digital camera. The results show that, for the injectors and pistons in experiments, the proper nozzle angle is as 75°. The mixing of fuel and gas after wall impingements may be promoted by increasing nozzle angle, but too large nozzle angle will increase the risk of fuel impinging on cylinder heads and cylinder liners. The proper impinging distance is as 4.2mm (15°CA before top dead center of compression stroke). Smaller impinging distances may prompt spray droplet collision and bounding in the pit area, and larger impinging distances may hinder the reaction of air in the central region of combustion chambers. In addition, moderate increasing the reentrant radius may promote the mixing of fuel and air, and hence reduce wall wetting in the combustion chambers. Suitable changes of the convexity angles may control the spray diffusion velocities in the center zones of combustion chambers after diesel impingements.
