Function of a high-pressure fuel pump in a car: Increase fuel pressure to achieve atomization through high-pressure injection. The main purpose of a high-pressure fuel pump is to serve as the power source for hydraulic devices such as jacks, heading machines, extruders, and cotton gins. The high-pressure fuel pump acts as the interface between the high-pressure and low-pressure fuel circuits. Its function is to generate fuel pressure in the common rail by controlling the fuel output, ensuring sufficient high-pressure fuel supply to the common rail under all operating conditions. The fuel pump is a fundamental component of the fuel injection system in electronically controlled fuel-injected vehicles. Located inside the vehicle's fuel tank, its role is to draw fuel from the tank, pressurize it, and deliver it to the fuel supply line, working in conjunction with the fuel pressure regulator to establish a certain fuel pressure.
