🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between open type combustion chambers and the required fuel spray pattern in direct injection diesels • Differences between multi‑hole (orifice) nozzles, single‑hole / pencil nozzles, and pintle nozzles as shown in the illustration • How the spray cone shape and number of jets in figures 1–4 would affect air–fuel mixing in an open chamber

💭 Think About

• Which nozzle style in figures 1–4 would give the best distribution of fuel throughout a large, open combustion space without walls or a precombustion chamber to contain the spray? • For open chamber direct injection, do we usually want fuel concentrated in one narrow jet, or broken up into several fine jets or a wide cone? Match that requirement to one of the illustrated spray patterns. • Look at figures 7 and 8: which cross‑section corresponds to a multi‑hole orifice nozzle versus a pintle nozzle, and which small figure (1–4) matches that multi‑hole spray?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which of figures 1–4 clearly shows multiple distinct spray streams or a finely atomized wide cone, rather than a single solid jet. • Confirm which nozzle type is normally specified for open chamber, direct‑injection marine diesels in your engineering texts (usually a form of multi‑hole orifice nozzle). • Make sure the figure you select for the answer has a spray pattern that would mix well with air across the whole cylinder volume, not just in one small area.
