ABSTRACT:
An air assisted fuel injector for an internal combustion engine includes a fuel nozzle having a fuel orifice and a targeting section cooperating with the fuel nozzle for targeting atomized fuel within the engine. An angled throttling section in disposed upstream of the targeting section and cooperates with the fuel nozzle. The throttling section throttles assist air prior to the air atomizing the fuel emerging from the fuel orifice and forms a vortex at the injector exit. Thus, any adverse effects on fuel flow from the fuel injector due to back pressure variability downstream of the fuel nozzle are reduced. In a preferred embodiment, an air shroud is fitted on the nozzle of the fuel injector and includes both the throttling section and the targeting section.
