Development of Fuel Injector Monitoring Using Strain Gauge Signal

The Fuel injector is an important component in a vehicle engine for determining the performance of an engine. It is believed that, by knowing the current state of the injector, one can take any prior safety measure and ensuring the optimal performance of the engine. However, it is very difficult to study and analyse the fuel injection system in real time during the operation of the vehicle. A study was conducted in developing a method to monitor the fuel injector using the strain signal generated from the strain gauge sensors installed on the fuel injector. This method is practically implementable and can be used on the actual operation of the engine. A research rig was developed in order to visualise the behaviour of the injector at any instant by obtaining the three key parameters from the strain gage sensors which are the pulse width (ms), frequency (Hz) and pressure (bar). All data obtained from this experiment will be analysed using the Matlab software, where the I-kaz (Z∞) will be applied as the main method to clearly visualize the operation of the machine. The result shows that for the same pulse width and pressure, the series have the same pattern for I-kaz coefficient. They have a consistent trend compared to the Skewness and Kurtosis parameters. This method serves to predict and describe the behaviour of the fuel injector to ease the monitoring task at any instant throughout the engine operation.
