Abstract

Controlled atomization is essential for reducing soot emission in practical diesel engines. In this work, an auxiliary device called a FAD (fuel activation device) was inserted into the fuel injection line to induce cavitation in the diesel spray. The performance of the FAD was examined in terms of pollutant emissions in a field test as well as aerosol sizes in lab-scale experiments. Experimental results showed that FAD reduced the size distribution of injected droplets and decreased the fuel consumption rate and emission amounts of PM₁₀, CO, and NO_x by 42%, 50% and 13.4%, respectively.
