先進的發動機燃料供應系統技術和污染研究 - 陶小建博士 摘要: 目前全球市場對發動機性能和排放控制的要求越來越高,燃料供應系統作?至關重要的能源供應子系統必需進行革新或進一步開發來滿足這種需求。燃料供應系統必需能長期經受持續的高壓、在準確的時間精確地提供所需燃料量,並且能滿足發動機控制器快速回應和多點噴射的要求。將來的燃料供應系統也必需能處理多種燃料,特別是針對那些對環境保護有好處的燃料,如:甲醇、乙醇和天然氣,而這些燃料通常具有低潤滑性和高揮發性的特點。燃料雜質,如微小顆粒或污染物、不需要的水份和易起反應的化學雜質成份,經常起著反作用,阻礙達到追求的目標。然而,西南研究院開發的污染研究分析和試驗技術能對潛在問題進行類比和預測。這些技術同時也能促進燃料供應系統的開發,通過縮短並減少開發周期來適應不停變化的移動機械設備的市場需求。 Bio: Dr.Tao is Manager of Advanced Fuel Delivery and Contamination Research at the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI). His work primarily focuses on automotive fuel delivery systems and system contamination sensitivity. He has conducted extensive testing and research on fuel and component compatibility for OEM auto-makers and also assisted in developing key life testing procedures for fuel pumps, fuel delivery modules and many other associated components. With the help of his staff, he developed a prototype electronic controlled variable valve lifting mechanism and a fast acting fuel injection system for flexible fuels. Dr. Tao has assisted the automobile industry in revising existing fuel delivery procedures and establishing new ones. He has also successfully established mathematical models for these fuel delivery systems using nonlinear stochastic system theory. He then utilized these models to investigate the physics essentials of the interactions among contaminants, additive packages, fuels and fuel delivery system components. He has authored and co-authored numerous technical publications in related fields. |
