Fuel Injection Pump Working Principle in Diesel Engine

There are two types of injection pumps on conventional diesel engines, inline pump and
distributor pump.

We have discussed the difference between the two types of pumps in the previous article, you
can access these 3 types of fuel injection pump in diesel engines.

in this article, we will discuss in detail about the inline injection pump.

Definition of Inline Injection Pump

Inline injection pump is a high pressure pump on a diesel engine that is used to increase
diesel fuel pressure up to 18,000 PSI individually.

That is, each injector will be served by a plunger unit.

It can be said, in a 4 cylinder diesel engine there are 4 injectors and 4 plungers

The main characteristic of the inline injection pump, lies in the configuration of each plunger.
Each plunger is placed in line above a camshaft pump.

That's where the name inline pump is taken. In addition to being called an inline pump, this
type is also known as the individual pump because, as explained above, this type uses one
plunger for each cylinder.

The main component of the inline injection pump

There are 5 main components in the inline injection pump,

 Camshaft pump
 Plunger
 Fuel barrel
  Fuel feed
 Rack and pinion

The camshaft pump is used to drive the plunger in order to press the fuel. While the fuel
barrel, is the place to hold fuel that will be pressed to the injector.

This is the configuration, the plunger is located above the camshaft and the fuel barrel is
located above the plunger.

Rack and pinion is a mechanism to regulate the amount of fuel in the fuel barrel. This
mechanism will regulate the diesel engine RPM.

Fuel feeds are fuel enter-exit door, there are three fuel feeds
inlet feed, used as fuel entrance from the tank to the pump
output feed, used as the fuel exit to the injector in high pressure conditions
return feed, used to drain the remaining fuel that is not pressed into the injector

And how does it work?

1. The outside mechanism of injection pump

Generally, there is a mini pump that is used to transfer fuel from the tank into the injection
pump. This pump works mechanically, meaning it is driven by the crankshaft engine.

So, to run the fuel flow we need to crank the engine.

 When the crankshaft rotates, the mini pump will send diesel fuel from the tank into the
injection pump through the inlet feed. From the inlet feed, the fuel directly fill the fuel barrel
and it is ready to be pressed.

2. The injection pump mechanism

The pump camshaft is connected to the engine crankshaft, so that when the engine cranks
automatically the pump camshaft rotates.

This rotation will move the plunger, so that the plunger is pressed upwards and as a result the
fuel that is already in the fuel barrel is pressed with high pressure and enters the injector.

When the cam has finished pressing the plunger, the plunger returns to the bottom position.
This will reopen the fuel barrel chamber, so that the fuel from the inlet feed filling the fuel
barrel directly.

3. Engine RPM setting mechanism

To adjust engine RPM on conventional diesel, it is done by adjusting the amount of fuel
injected by the injector.

In this case, the control is located in the fuel barrel. How much the amount of fuel in the fuel
barrel when it is pressed will affect the engine RPM.
it is the task of rack and pinion. These two components will regulate the amount of fuel in the
fuel barrel by regulating fuel disposal through the return feed.

The amount of fule is less (Low RPM)

The amount of fuel is more (high RPM)

So, there is a fuel path inte plunger from the fuel barrel leading to the return feed.

This path is made with a certain slope, so that when the angle of the plunger is rotated, it will
affect the amount of fuel contained in the fuel barrel

To be clearer you can see the picture (viewed from side)

a. when low RPM

The amount of pressed fuel is lower, so the angle of plunger can be seen from the picture.

2. when high RPM

The amount of pressed fuel is more, so the angle of plunger can be seen from the picture.
 What is FIP in diesel engine?

Fuel injection pump is a very important component of engine, it is a part of of fuel system

of engine. It is used to to supply of fuel to the injectors as per the firing order of engine. It
increases the pressure of fuel which is required to atomise the fuel before injecting in
combustion chamber of engine cylinder.

How much pressure does a diesel injector pump put out?

The earliest inline injection pumps delivered 3,000-5,000 psi of injection pressure, while

the newer Bosch P7100, found on '94 to '981/2 Cummins engines, delivers
18,000 psi of pressure. These types of pumps have only one fuel-metering plunger.

How do you test a diesel injector pump?

Testing Injection Pump and Injectors

1. remove the injector from your engine.

2. hook the steel fuel line back up the the injector with the injector facing away from
the engine.
3. Bleed the fuel system. http://www.hoyetractor.com/bleed.htm.
4. turn the engine over and let the fuel spray out of the injector onto a piece of
cardboard.

What causes diesel injector pump failure?

Common diesel fuel injection pump failures and how to prevent them. There are two
significant causes of diesel injector failure, and 90% of the issues can be traced to the
quality of the fuel you're using, or rather, the lack of quality and faulty
mechanical problems in the fuel injector housing.

What is FIP engine?

A fuel injection pump is a very complex piece of engineering. ... In most cases, the injection
pump is driven indirectly from the crankshaft by gears, chains or a toothed belt – often the
timing belt – that also drives the camshaft. It rotates at half the speed of the crankshaft in a
conventional 4 stroke engine.

How does a diesel injection system work?

A port injection system injects fuel just prior to the intake stroke (outside the cylinder). ... A
carburetor mixes air and fuel long before the air enters the cylinder. In a car engine,
therefore, all of the fuel is loaded into the cylinder during the intake stroke and then
compressed

An Injection Pump is the device that pumps fuel into the cylinders of a diesel engine.
Traditionally, the injection pump was driven indirectly from the crankshaft by gears, chains
or a toothed belt (often the timing belt) that also drives the camshaft. It rotates at half
crankshaft speed in a conventional four-stroke diesel engine. Its timing is such that the fuel is
injected only very slightly before top dead centre of that cylinder's compression stroke. It is
also common for the pump belt on gasoline engines to be driven directly from the camshaft.
In some systems injection pressures can be as high as 620 bar (8992 psi)

What is injection pump timing?

Injection timing, also called spill timing, is the moment when diesel fuel enters the cylinder
during the combustion phase. ... The timing of the pump determines when it will
inject fuel into the cylinder as the piston reaches the BTDC point.
 How does an injection pump work?

The pump camshaft is connected to the engine crankshaft, so that when the engine cranks
automatically the pump camshaft rotates. This rotation will move the plunger, so that the
plunger is pressed upwards and as a result the fuel that is already in the fuel barrel is pressed
with high pressure and enters the injector.

How do you check the timing on a fuel pump?

By hair line method

1. Turn the engine so that the unit to be checked is toward the TDC of compression
stroke (plunger upstroke) so that hair line marking on plunger and pump body are coincided.
2. When hair lines are coincided, stop turning and check the mark on the fly
wheel whether timing is correct or not.
How do you adjust the timing on a fuel pump?

Adjustment of Fuel Pump Timing

1. By adding or reduction shims on the pump base, or.

2. By turning the plunger up and down adjustment screw on the pump roller guide, or.
3. By shifting the coupling flange between the pump and the drive side of the engine in
case of combined unit system, (for small engine)

the cylinders of the engine, and the fuel is injected to each cylinder in turn by a distributor.
Two main types of pump in use are the rotary and axial plunger distributor pumps.
