Pasiskaitom ir daugiau neburiam apie 1992 audi su common rail
The common rail system on its prototype was already developed in late sixties with Mr. Hiber in Switzerland. After that, Ganser of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology focusing on his research the common rail technology was advanced. In mid nineties, Dr. Shohei Itoh and Masahiko Miyaki, Japanese automotive parts manufacturer Denso Corporation, developed the Common Rail Fuel System for Heavy Duty Vehicles and finally turned into its first practical use on their ECD-U2 common Rail system, which was mounted on the HINO RAISING RANGER truck and sold for general use in 1995. Later in 1997 the German automotive parts manufacturer Robert Bosch GmbH extended its use for passenger car.
Common rail engines have been used in marine and locomotive applications in times past. The Cooper-Bessemer GN-8 (circa 1942) is an example of a hydraulically operated common rail diesel engine, also know as a modified common rail.
With rising fuel prices throughout the 1990s, a number of companies, including Robert Bosch GmbH, Fiat,Volvo and MTU, attempted (separately) to develop new Diesel engines with lower emissions and higher fuel efficiency.
Common rail engines were first used by the Fiat subsidiary Alfa Romeo, and the technology is most commonly used by Fiat, under their MultiJet brandname. The engines are suitable for all types of road car, including small hatchbacks such as the Fiat Panda.
Common Rail today
Today the common rail system is responsible for a revolution in diesel engine technology. Delphi Automotive Systems of the US also make common-rail systems. Different car makers refer to their common rail engines by different names, e.g. DaimlerChrysler's CDI, Ford Motor Company's TDCi (most of these engines are manufactured by PSA), Fiat Group's (Fiat, Alfa Romeo and Lancia) JTD, Renault's DCi, GM/Opel's CDTi (most of these engines are manufactured by Fiat, other by Isuzu), Hyundai's CRDI, Mitsubishi's D-ID, PSA Peugeot Citroen's HDI, Toyota's D-4D, Volkswagen's TDi, and so on.
