Consumer Products in the Market Over 500,000 Orbital DI engines in the market
Air-assist Direct Injection Spray Characteristic • Spray shape not effected by fuel type • Similar droplet sizes for all types of fuel
UAV Benefits of Air-Assisted DI Benefits of Air-Assisted Direct Injected Engines for UAV’s: Reliable cold start Smooth transient operation. Multi-fuel capability (gas, JP5/8, diesel) Lower weight & vibration than diesel. Lower cost & consumption than turbine Engine monitoring via advanced EMS.
Military Applications Utilizing Orbital DI Technology(Currently in the public domain)
