How do piezoelectric injectors improve fuel atomization in diesel engines?
Piezoelectric injectors use piezoelectric crystals that expand and contract in response to electrical signals, allowing for extremely precise control over the timing and quantity of fuel injection. This precision leads to better atomization of the fuel, creating a finer mist that mixes more evenly with air in the combustion chamber. Improved atomization enhances combustion efficiency, reducing emissions and increasing power output. Piezoelectric injectors are particularly beneficial in modern diesel engines, where stringent emissions standards require precise fuel control.
