Wall wetting phenomenon in the intake port of an MPI engine was investigated with different kinds of injectors by an A/F step response test and analysis was done based on the simple wall wetting model to find out a certain correlation between wall wetting and A/F variations. It was found that (1) At fully warmed condition of 90.deg.C water temperature, around 40-60% of injected fuel was wall wetted, (2) At cold condition of 45.deg.C Water temperature, around 68-80% of injected fuel was wall wetted, and (3) A/F variations during acceleration and deceleration were influenced by the wetting area, the fuel droplet size, and the amount of wall wetting fuel.
