FUSO 4M4 – FUEL AND ENGINE CONTROL – STRUCTURE AND OPERATION – Fuel injection control

(1) Pilot injection
โ€ข Pilot injection entails the injection of an extremely small amount of fuel ahead of the main injection.
โ€ข Pilot injection suppresses heat generation early in the injection cycle and thus suppresses NOx generation and noise at the start of combustion.

(2) Split injection control
โ€ข Split injection entails the injection of an extremely small amount of fuel two or more times ahead of the main injection.
โ€ข This improves the ignitability of fuel and realizes better startability at cold engine and reduction of HC at low-load operation.

(3) Post injection
โ€ข Fuel injection control for diesel particular filter regeneration is performed in such a way, with early post injection and late post injection added after conventional fuel injection (main injection), exhaust gas temperature is increased to burn out particulate matter (PM) collected in the DPF.
