Increasing the life of plunger and barrel assembly of high pressure fuel pumps

摘要

In order to identify the regularities of further increasing the efficiency of transport and technological machines, it is of interest to consider the issues of determining the impact of their design and technological parameters on the quality of running-in and the operability of fuel pumps. The article analyzes the influence of the initial operating modes and the lubricating medium on the quality of running-in and subsequent performance of high-pressure fuel pumps. On the basis of theoretical studies, equations were obtained to determine the unbalanced radial force acting on the plunger and fuel leaks in the plunger pair. These expressions make it possible to establish the dependence of the specific pressure in the plunger and barrel assembly both on the design and technological parameters of the pump.
