Technical Field

Compared with traditional fossil fuels such as gasoline, diesel oil, natural gas and the like, the hydrogen is clean in combustion, and no emission of particles, hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and the like is generated; if the lean combustion technology is adopted, the hydrogen combustion can further realize zero emission. Therefore, hydrogen has great potential to replace traditional fossil fuels, becoming the primary fuel for engines.
However, hydrogen is in a gaseous state at normal temperature and normal pressure, is not easy to transport and store, and is compressed into high-pressure high-density compressed hydrogen by adopting a pressurizing method when in use and is stored in a high-pressure container; meanwhile, the fuel has small molecular weight, wide explosion limit and high combustion speed, and is easy to temper when being used as fuel of an internal combustion engine. These properties lead to a high risk of using hydrogen fuel, and the operational safety and reliability of the engine cannot be ensured.
Researches show that the methanol can be subjected to a cracking reaction by adopting an online reforming technology to generate combustible gas rich in hydrogen, so that the ignition and combustion performances of an engine can be effectively improved, and the emission is reduced; moreover, the methanol is liquid under normal temperature and normal pressure, and is very convenient to store and transport. Therefore, the methanol is reformed into the hydrogen-rich gas by adopting an online reforming technology and is supplied to the engine as the fuel in real time, so that the methanol and the reformed fuel thereof have great potential for application in the fields of internal combustion engines, aeroengines and the like.

Moreover, as can be seen from fig. 1, the solution has a large size, is limited by space and weight in the fields of vehicle-mounted, vehicle-mounted and the like, and is inconvenient to use.

The working principle of the invention is as follows:
when only a reformer is used: the working process is as shown in fig. 5, firstly, the high-temperature tail gas of the engine enters the exhaust channel 34 through the exhaust inlet flange 2; when the temperature in the off-gas passage 34 reaches the operating temperature as measured by the first thermocouple 7, liquid methanol in a methanol fuel tank (not shown) starts to be introduced into the methanol reaction passage 4 at a certain speed through the reformed methanol inlet 41.
The heat of the high-temperature tail gas in the waste gas channel 34 is transferred to the liquid methanol in the methanol reaction channel 4 through the side wall of the waste gas channel 34, and the liquid methanol is quickly evaporated into a gaseous state; the methanol mixed by gas and liquid continuously flows to the downstream of the methanol reaction channel 4, and the methanol is subjected to cracking reaction under the action of high temperature and the catalyst to generate hydrogen-rich mixed gas because the catalyst is coated on the inner wall of the methanol reaction channel 4; meanwhile, as the dome 43 of the methanol reaction channel 4 is made of the selectively permeable material, the generated hydrogen-rich mixed gas enters the reformate channel 6 through the dome 43 of the methanol reaction channel 4 under the action of centrifugal force and the permeable material, and the liquid methanol is positioned at the outer side of the hydrogen-rich mixed gas under the action of the centrifugal force, the hydrogen-rich mixed gas and the liquid methanol are convected under the action of gravity, the hydrogen-rich mixed gas moves upwards, and meanwhile, a part of the liquid methanol is downward contacted with the high-temperature surface, so that the evaporation efficiency of the liquid methanol is improved, and the reaction speed of methanol pyrolysis is improved.
The hydrogen-rich mixed gas flows out through a reforming fuel outlet and is input to the positions of an engine fuel nozzle, an intake valve, a head part and the like where the gas is needed; while unreacted liquid methanol flows out through the reformed methanol outlet 42 back to the methanol fuel tank;
finally, under the control of the ECU, a small portion of the engine exhaust gas flows in through the exhaust gas inlet 31 for scavenging, so as to push out the hydrogen-rich combustible mixture gas remaining in the methanol reaction channel 4, thereby ensuring the safety of the system. During this time, the thermocouple monitors the temperature in the exhaust passage 34 over time and controls the flow of high temperature exhaust gas accordingly.
When the reformer is used in conjunction with the evaporator section 10: as shown in fig. 6, first, engine high-temperature tail gas enters the inside of the evaporation section 10 through the evaporation section inlet flange 102; when the temperature inside the evaporation section 10 reaches the operating temperature, as measured by the second thermocouple 108, liquid methanol starts to enter the methanol evaporation tube 107 through the methanol evaporation tube inlet 1051.
The heat of the high-temperature tail gas in the evaporation section pipe body 105 is transferred to the liquid methanol in the methanol evaporation pipe 107 through the side wall of the evaporation section pipe body 105, and the liquid methanol is partially evaporated into a gaseous state; the methanol gas-liquid mixture enters the reforming methanol inlet 41 through the methanol evaporation pipe outlet 1052, and a cracking reaction occurs in the methanol reaction channel 4, so that the speed of the methanol cracking reaction is further improved, and meanwhile, the high Wen Wei gas quantity of the engine entering the evaporation section 10 can be adjusted, so that a sufficient quantity of gaseous methanol can be ensured to enter the reforming methanol inlet 41 through the methanol evaporation pipe outlet 1052.
The remaining steps are identical to those when only the reformer is used, and will not be described again here.
