The continuous fuel flow rate at a constant battery voltage
is dependent on the injector design, fuel pump and fuel
pressure used. Tests have shown that the fuel flow rate,
for the Rochester TBi system, is dependent on the applied
battery voltage.
The fuel flow rate becomes lower with reduced battery volt-
age. The ECU compensates for this effect by lengthening the
injection pulses at low battery voltages.
7.6 INJECTOR OPENING AND CLOSING TIME
The current, through the injector coil, creates a magnetic
field which moves the armature, thus opening the nozzle
allowing fuel to be injected. Short opening times therefore
require a fast build up of current in the injector. This
requires a low inductance or a high applied voltage. Short
closing times require a low holding current which is ob-
tained by reducing the opening current while the injector is
open to a current just large enough to keep the injector
open. Since the available voltage in automotive applications
is restricted to the battery voltage (6 to 13.8V) the injec-
tors are normally designed to have low inductance.
The measured characteristics of the test injector are:Inductance = 4mHResistance = 1.5 ohmStatic opening current = 1.1A *Static closing current = 0.5A ** Static opening and closing current is independent of fuelpressure.
