  • Patent number: 8033269
    Abstract: To provide a fuel injection device capable of reducing the amount of fuel discharging to the outside. The fuel injection device is provided with the nozzle body, the injection control valve, and the close assistance piston. In the nozzle body, the first fuel chamber and the nozzle valve close chamber are formed. The injection control valve advances to a first position, thereby allowing the first fuel passage to be communicated with the first fuel chamber and blocking access from the first fuel chamber to the third fuel passage, and the injection control valve retreats to a second position, thereby blocking access from the first fuel passage to the first fuel chamber and allowing the first fuel chamber to be communicated with the third fuel passage. The close assistance piston prevents fuel in the first fuel chamber from discharging to the outside of the fuel injection device.

  • Patent number: 6834493
    Abstract: Cavitation is reduced in a rotary pump while the pump performance is maintained by utilizing a low-temperature fluid source already present in the pump system. The fluid from the low-temperature fluid source receives heat from the fluid flowing to the pump, thereby lowering its temperature and the saturated vapor pressure, which increases the allowable margin for a decrease in fluid pressure and reduces the occurrence of cavitation. The pump system may be used for a liquid rocket engine. The fluid velocity of the fluid directed to the pump is low before releasing heat, so there is only a slight pressure loss at the pump. Accordingly, the temperature is lowered and the occurrence of cavitation is reduced within the pump.

  • Publication number: 20030014965
    Abstract: The occurrence of cavitation is reduced in a rotary pump while the pump performance is maintained. A low-temperature source present in the pump system is utilized, and heat exchange with the fluid flowing to the pump is performed with this low-temperature source, thereby lowering the temperature of the fluid flowing into the pump and lowering the saturated vapor pressure of this fluid, which increases the allowable margin for a decrease in the pressure of the fluid and reduces the occurrence of cavitation. In the case of a liquid rocket engine, a coolant or another propellant B whose temperature is lower than that of the primary propellant A can be employed as this low-temperature source. The propellant B is passed through a heat exchanger 2 by a pump 4, which results in heat exchange with the propellant A from a tank 3, and lowers the fluid temperature. Since the fluid velocity of the propellant A is low at the time of this inflow, there is only slight pressure loss inside the heat exchanger 2.
