 NOZZLE TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER

INTERNAL USE ONLY

26 © Wärtsilä 11 October 2019 Presentation name / Author

 NOZZLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Too high temp.

• Trumpet formation on nozzle tip
• It interferes with the spray pattern & causes poor combustion

Too low nozzle temp.

• May lead to corrosion on the fuel injector having contact with
combustion gases

 FUEL INJECTOR OVERHAUL

To check
• Opening pr.
• Atomization & Spray pattern
• Orifice open
• Seat tightness (drops/10 sec.)
• Pr. drop time (sec.)
• Seat dia
• Needle stroke (lift)

 FUEL INJECTOR W32

• Measure needle lift to check wear

– wear on needle & tip = A
– wear on nozzle holder = B
– total wear = A + B B

• Alternative nozzle has the new type A

of needle

• Different tests to check nozzle condition Alternative

– opening pressure
– spray pattern B
– seat leakage
– guide leakage A
