Hey, is there a accumulator in this new common rail setups?
If no, then of course...
If yes, then anyone know it's spec's ?
Plus H2O in there along with potential micro bubbles...to have that
H2O instantly vaporize from high heat and the biggie....VACUUM !!!!
If I am not mistaken, the CP4 feeds straight to the "common rail" which doubles as the accumulator / reservoir for all the injectors in the bank.
AFAIK, there is no provision for dampening of hydroshock beyond the normal spring / elasticity in the metal accumulator rail and associated piping.
The H20 would be in supercritical state at least some of the time.
Plus other hydrocarbons, gases.. all in supercritical state.
We know zilcho about the corrosion / reactivity of supercritical fluids and the surfaces they contact.
