Abstract
This paper presents a numerical analysis of the delivery pressure wave in a 210-kW/cyl fuel injection pump (P. Corporation, Changwon-si, Korea) for medium-speed diesel engines using Ansys Fluent R15.0. Results obtained from experiment and from numerical analysis of the fuel delivery pressure wave were compared and found to be similar, thereby confirming the reliability of the numerical analysis of the delivery pressure wave in the fuel injection pump.
