Air-assist Direct Injection Spray Characteristic
Spray shape not effected by fuel type Similar droplet sizes for all types of fuel DIESEL FUEL 10 mg/shot 6.8 micron SMD GASOLINE FUEL 10 mg/shot 5.7 micron SMD Copyright Pg 13
UAV Benefits of Air-Assisted DI Benefits of Air-Assisted Direct Injected Engines for UAV’s: Reliable cold start Smooth transient operation.
Multi-fuel capability (gas, JP5/8, diesel) Lower weight & vibration than diesel.
Lower cost & consumption than turbine Engine monitoring via advanced EMS.
