Abstract
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Maximum fuel injection pressures for GDI engines is expected to increase due to positive effects on emissions and engine-efficiency. Current GDI injectors have maximum operating pressures of 35 MPa, but higher injection pressures have yielded promising reductions in particle number (PN) and improved combustion stability. However, the mechanisms responsible for these effects are poorly understood, and there have been few studies on fuel sprays formed at high injection pressures.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper summarizes experimental studies on the properties of sprays formed at high injection pressures. The results of these experiments can be used as inputs for CFD simulations and studies on combustion behavior, emissions formation, and combustion system design. The experiments were conducted using an injection rate meter and optical methods in a constant volume spray chamber. Injection rate measurements were performed to determine the injectors’ flow characteristics. Spray imaging was performed using a high-speed video camera. Several spray properties such as the liquid spray penetration, spray plume angle, and the spray breakup point were determined as functions of the fuel injection pressure and injected fuel mass by image post-processing. The impact of fuel pressure on spray droplet size was also investigated using two-component Phase Doppler Interferometry.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">Piezoelectric injectors for diesel engines were used with modified nozzles that produce sprays resembling those generated in gasoline engines. Experiments were performed with fuel injection pressures ranging from 20 to 150 MPa, and chamber pressures of 0.1 and 0.6 MPa. In addition, four different nozzles with three different nozzle configurations and either 6 or 10 holes were used to determine how hole geometry affects spray formation.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">The study’s key findings are that increasing the fuel injection pressure advances spray breakup and creates smaller droplets, improving mixture formation and accelerating evaporation. The nozzle type and the ambient pressure both significantly affect aspects of spray behavior such as spray tip development.</div></div>

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
