Advancement in Fuel Pump Design for High-Pressure Systems

Sakthivel Rasu

Abstract: Design developments of high-pressure fuel pumps are mandatory in order to fulfill the demanding recent requirements of the newest applications, both automotive and industrial. The injection systems of fuel directly, as well as alternative fuels, require new steps in improvements of fuel pump technology with regard to their efficiency, reliability, and proper control of emissions. This paper discusses the main developments in fuel pump designs, focusing on high-pressure systems that allow for better fuel delivery with reduced wear and support of strict emissions standards.
