Methods and systems are provided for a fuel injector. In one example, a system may include an injection nozzle having a venturi shape with an upstream twisted fin arranged in a venturi inlet. The system may further include a downstream twisted fin arranged in a venturi outlet.

This intake apparatus for an internal combustion engine having a first bank and a second bank includes: an intake pipe including one new-air intake pipe, two branched pipes, and a junction connecting the new-air intake pipe to the two branched pipes; an EGR gas pipe connected to the junction; and a partitioning member placed around an opening in the EGR gas pipe that opens toward the intake pipe. The partitioning member defines an EGR gas storage chamber. The EGR gas storage chamber has first-bank and second-bank flow passages in which the EGR gas flows toward the first bank and the second bank. The first and second effective cross-sectional areas in the first-bank flow passage and the second-bank flow passage are smaller than the flow passage cross-sectional area in the opening of the EGR gas pipe.

A fuel atomizer (100) has a conduit (105) for passage of fuel (101) and an object (113) in the conduit (105) which creates continual and repetitive turbulence in the fuel (101). The turbulent fuel exits the conduit (105) via a nozzle (111) into a spray of fine mist (103). The object (113) is a movable magnet (601) which is repelled by another magnet (701) at the outlet (109) of the conduit (105). The flow of fuel (101) carries the movable magnet (601) towards the outlet (109) of the conduit (105) while the other magnet (701) repels the movable magnet (601) backwards. So the movable magnet (601) moves repetitively.
