A cylinder head cover includes: a body; and a high rigidity part having a higher rigidity than the body; wherein a part between both ends of a fuel pipe is mounted to the high rigidity part.

An engine including a common rail attached to one side portion of a cylinder block that pivotally supports a crankshaft in a rotatable manner, the one side portion extending along a crankshaft center, and the common rail being configured to supply a fuel to the engine. A flywheel housing that accommodates a flywheel that is rotated integrally with the crankshaft is disposed in one side portion out of opposite side portions of the cylinder block intersecting the one side portion. One end portion of the common rail is disposed above the flywheel housing.

A method for operating a solenoid valve coupled to the inlet valve of a fuel injection pump comprises adjusting a pull-in electrical energy of the solenoid valve based on a fuel injection pump volumetric efficiency.

A method of controlling fuel injection into a combustor of a gas turbine engine including: applying a first electrical charge to fuel such that the fuel becomes a charged fuel; and applying a second electrical charge to a component of the combustor, wherein the first electrical charge is applied to the fuel at a first frequency and the second electrical charge is applied to the component at a second frequency such that at least one of a selected tone, a selected screech, and a selected noise is produced by spraying the charged fuel through the component and into a combustion chamber of the combustor from a fuel nozzle.

A high-pressure fuel pump includes a fuel chamber, a pressurizing chamber, a cylinder, a plunger, and a control valve. The control valve includes a valve seat having a valve hole, a valve member, a movable portion having a needle, a valve opening spring, a coil, and a projecting-side stopper. The needle is configured to project from the valve hole and thus separate the valve member from the valve seat. When the control valve is in an open-valve mode, the movable portion contacts the projecting-side stopper and the valve member is separate from the valve seat. The size of the clearance formed between the valve member and the valve seat when the control valve is in the open-valve mode is set such that the clearance functions as a passage restriction for causing pressure loss in the fuel flowing from the pressurizing chamber to the fuel chamber.

An engine includes fuel system components provided on a cylinder head, a purge control valve that controls an amount of evaporated fuel purged to a portion of an intake passage on a downstream side of a throttle valve, and intake pipes that form the portion of the intake passage on the downstream side of the throttle valve and extend in a cylinder array direction, in which the purge control valve is disposed in front of the intake pipes and the fuel system components are disposed on an opposite side of the purge control valve across the intake pipes in vehicle front view or vehicle side view.
