System for cooling a high power fuel injector of a dual injector

摘要

The present invention relates to a system for cooling a high power fuel injector of a dual fuel injector wherein the system comprises a first fuel supply circuit having a first conduit connecting a fuel feed supply and the high power fuel injector, the first conduit having a terminal end adjacent to a distal end of the high power fuel injector, and a second conduit connecting the terminal end of the first conduit to the low power fuel injector such that all of the fuel supplied to the low power injector first passes through the high power fuel injector. The system also has a second fuel supply circuit, separate from the first fuel supply circuit, which comprises a third conduit connecting the fuel feed supply and the fuel injection orifices of the high power fuel injector so as to supply fuel to the fuel injection orifices.
