COMMON RAIL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Common rail system:
The common rail system uses high-pressurized fuel for improved fuel economy. This system also provides robust engine power, while suppressing engine vibration and noise.
This system stores fuel in the common rail, which has been pressurized and supplied by the supply pump. By storing fuel at high-pressure, the common rail system can provide fuel at stable fuel injection pressures, regardless of engine speed or engine load.
The ECM, using the EDU, provides an electric current to the piezo actuator in each injector to regulate the fuel injection timing and volume. The ECM also monitors the internal fuel pressure of the common rail using the fuel pressure sensor. The ECM causes the supply pump to supply the fuel necessary to obtain the target fuel pressure.
In addition, this system uses a piezo actuator inside each injector to open and close the fuel passages. Therefore, both fuel injection time and fuel injection volume can be precisely regulated by the ECM.
The common rail system allows a two stage fuel injection process. In order to soften combustion shock, this system performs "pilot-injection" prior to the main fuel injection. This helps to reduce engine vibration and noise.
Common rail system components:
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Common rail | Stores high-pressure fuel produced by supply pump |
| Supply pump | Operated by crankshaft Supplies high-pressure fuel to common rail |
| Injector | Injects fuel to combustion chamber based on signals from ECM |
| Fuel pressure sensor | Monitors internal fuel pressure of common rail and sends signals to ECM |
| Pressure Discharge Valve | Based on signals from the ECM, opens valve when sudden deceleration is occurred, or when the ignition switch is OFF to prevent the fuel pressure from becoming too high. |
| Suction control valve | Based on signals from ECM, adjusts fuel volume supplied to common rail and regulates internal fuel pressure |
| Check valve | Keeps pressure that discharges from injector |

INJECTION CONTROL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM controls the fuel injection system through the EDU, injectors, and supply pump.
The ECM determines the injection volume and injection timing based on signals from the acceleration position sensor, crank position sensor, and camshaft position sensor. Based on the signals from the ECM, the EDU controls the injectors. The EDU also controls the suction control valve installed on the supply pump to help regulate fuel pressure.
The Piezo type injector used in the 1AD-FTV engine makes noise when the engine is idling because this injector operates at high speed. Therefore, the EDU controls the injector to operate at low speed when the engine is idling based on signals from the ECM to achieve noise reduction.
The feed pump is used to pump fuel from the fuel tank to the supply pump.
SUPPLY PUMP OPERATION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The rotation of the eccentric cam in the supply pump causes the ring cam in the supply pump to push plunger A upward as illustrated below. The spring force pulls plunger B (located opposite to plunger A) upward. As a result, plunger B draws the fuel in, and plunger A pumps fuel out at the same time.
SUCTION CONTROL VALVE OPERATION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM controls the suction control valve operation to regulate the fuel volume that is produced by the supply pump for the common rail. This control is performed to regulate the internal fuel pressure of the common rail to the targeted injection pressure.
Small opening of the suction control valve:
When the opening of the suction control valve is small, the volume of supplied fuel is small.
The suction volume becomes small due to the narrow path despite the plunger stroke being full. The difference between the geometrical volume and suction volume creates a vacuum.
Pump output will start when the fuel pressure at (A) becomes higher than the common rail pressure (B).
Large opening of the suction control valve:
When the opening of the suction control valve is large, the volume of supplied fuel is increased.
If the plunger stroke is full, the suction volume becomes large because of the wide path.
Pump output will start when the fuel pressure at (A) becomes higher than the common rail pressure (B).
