The CF34 inlet guide vanes(IGV) and the first five stages of stator vanes are variable, and the main fuel control schedules their position as a function of the desired VG [variable geometry] scheduling. The VG system has two turnbuckles for each of the 5 VG stages. Actual position of the variable geometry is transmitted through a feedback cable and the turnbuckles. 1, record 1, English, - feedback%20cable

Les aubes directrices d'entrée du CF34 et les cinq premiers étages des aubes du stator sont variables, et le régulateur de carburant principal en régule la position en fonction de la régulation à géométrie variable désirée. Le système à géométrie variable comporte deux tendeurs pour chacun des 5 étages à géométrie variable. La position réelle de la géométrie variable est transmise au moyen d'un câble de renvoi et des tendeurs. 1, record 1, French, - c%C3%A2ble%20de%20renvoi

Fuel in the D4D is pressurised to an extremely high 135mpa within the "common rail" that feeds all four cylinders (older diesel engines have a separate pipe leading from the pump to each cylinder). The high pressure injection creates better fuel atomisation for complete burning and increased power output. And because there is less fuel wasted through inefficient combustion, the D4D delivers better fuel economy too. 3, record 4, English, - high%20pressure%20common%20rail
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
A common rail engine is designed to supply constant fuel pressure to electronically controlled injectors through a shared fuel reservoir. This means that the fuel supply is not dependent on the engine revs. A common rail system is built around four basic components : a high pressure pump with pressure regulator and inlet metering valve, a rail which contains a pressurised reserve of fuel, injectors which inject precise amounts of fuel into the combustion chamber as required and a Diesel Control Unit-the ’brain’ of the system, which precisely controls injector flow and timing as well as rail pressure while continuously monitoring the operating conditions of the engine. 4, record 4, English, - high%20pressure%20common%20rail

Le secret de la «rampe commune», c'est son tube interposé entre la pompe d'injection et les injecteurs. Alors que dans un système d'injection directe classique, la pression dépend du régime-moteur, cette rampe commune, d'un volume de quelques centimètres cubes, va jouer le rôle de réserve de pression. Ainsi, quel que soit le régime-moteur, le moteur dispose d'une pression pouvant atteindre 1500 bars. 3, record 4, French, - rampe%20commune%20%C3%A0%20haute%20pression
