Experimental Study on Electrostatic Spray Combustion Technology to Reduce the Fuel Consumption of Engine Idle Speed

Abstract

Electrostatic spray can apparently improve the fuel atomization. Based on the Santana 2000AFE engine, the engine test equipment was built to experimentally study the effect of the electrostatic spray combustion technology on the fuel consumption and the emission in the case of engine idle speed. Entry in the injector bracket installed a OCS electrostatic atomization devices, electronics, said exhaust gas analyzer and other related equipment with static electricity on the front of the engine idle fuel consumption and emissions tested, The results show that the electrostatic spray combustion technology can obviously improve the oil saving and emission. Below at 1000r/min engine speed, fuel economy of up to 3%; in all idle speed, HC emissions decrease of up to 10% ~ 17%, CO emissions increase up to 5% to 25%.
