A method for preventing rail pressure overshoot control of a static oil return fuel injector engine
By using ECU diagnostics and control strategies, combined with pressure relief and static air injection strategies, the rail pressure overshoot problem of engines without static return fuel injectors was solved, ensuring that the rail pressure is within a reasonable range. This also resolved the difficulties in opening the pressure relief valve and starting the engine, achieving rapid engine response and good control.

AI Technical Summary
In electronically controlled high-pressure common rail fuel systems without static return fuel injectors, rail pressure overshoot during long reverse driving can cause the pressure relief valve to open. Rail pressure overshoot can also occur during rapid deceleration or sudden load relief. After shutdown, excessively high or low rail pressure can lead to starting difficulties, especially in low-temperature environments. Furthermore, there is a problem of continuous rail pressure rise under low-load conditions.
By diagnosing engine faults through the ECU, the engine is controlled to execute multiple drag or static air injection strategies, pressure relief strategies, and a one-way relief valve is installed in the return oil manifold to ensure that the rail pressure is within a reasonable range. The rail pressure is adjusted during the power-down delay period in combination with the pressure relief strategy and the static air injection strategy to prevent the pressure relief valve from opening and starting difficulties.
It effectively solves the problems of pressure relief valve opening and starting difficulties caused by rail pressure overshoot, ensuring fast engine power response under transient conditions, avoiding pressure relief valve opening and black smoke, and achieving good rail pressure control and engine power, especially in low temperature environments.
