Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to an internal combustion engine system comprising an internal combustion engine generating exhaust gases and an exhaust gas receiver having a receiver housing for receiving the exhaust gases.
Background
When building ships, such as container ships, one of the main concerns is to maximize the space available on the ship for cargo, and therefore the space occupied by the engines is a major concern.
Additionally, in some engine systems, the turbocharger is disposed behind the exhaust gas receiver, and in other designs, the turbocharger is disposed side-by-side with respect to the exhaust gas receiver. For all of these engine system designs, the exhaust gas receiver needs to be in fluid communication with the turbocharger while also being fluidly connectable to some sort of aftertreatment device. All of the conduits and valves for this fluid connection take up space, but also need to be customized for each engine system depending on which turbocharger is used. The ducts and valves take up space on the engine overhead platform and, because the ducts must be supported, the platform needs to be large enough to enable personnel to move around it.
Disclosure of Invention
It is an object of the present invention to wholly or partly overcome the above disadvantages and drawbacks of the prior art. More specifically, it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved internal combustion engine system having a turbocharger and which is easier to adjust between the arrangement of the turbocharger behind or side by side with respect to the exhaust gas receiver, while not taking up more space on the ship.
The above objects, together with numerous other objects, advantages, and features, which will become evident from below description, are accomplished by a solution in accordance with the present invention by an internal combustion engine system comprising:
-an internal combustion engine generating exhaust gases, and
an exhaust gas receiver having a receiver housing for receiving exhaust gas,
-a turbocharger having a turbocharger turbine and a turbocharger turbine,
NO in fluid connection with an exhaust gas receiver for receiving and purifying exhaust gasesxA reduction unit, and
-a guiding device for controlling the exhaust gases before they enter the turbocharger, the guiding device comprising:
-a first inlet in fluid communication with an exhaust gas receiver,
-and NOxA second inlet in fluid communication with the reduction unit,
an outlet in fluid communication with the turbocharger,
a pipe unit connecting the first inlet, the second inlet and the outlet,
-a bypass valve having a valve element for closing and opening the first inlet, and
-a first reaction valve arranged in fluid communication with the second inlet for controlling the slave NOxThe reduction unit is led to the exhaust gas passage of the guide means,
wherein the first inlet, the valve element and a part of the pipe unit are arranged in the receiver housing.
By incorporating the bypass valve and a part of the conduit unit for connecting the exhaust gas receiver with the turbocharger into the exhaust gas receiver, the total space occupied by the internal combustion engine system is substantially reduced/substantially minimized. In addition, when designing an engine system to have a turbocharger of one inlet type or another, very little change is required, which reduces the effort and cost of the engine designer/builder.
In addition, the need for a support structure as an internal system is reduced because it eliminates the use of compensators, thereby eliminating stress from the compensators.
When the connection (i.e. the bypass valve and the partial pipe unit) is located in the exhaust gas receiver, the pressure difference is reduced from 3.8 bar to NOxThe pressure loss in the reduction unit (e.g. SCR system), i.e. 70 mbar, reduces the need for wall thickness and, together with the reduced support structure, reduces the total mass of the engine.
A pipe unit refers to any type of unit that connects the first inlet, the second inlet and the outlet. Thus, a pipe unit refers to a unit consisting of a pipe, a plate, a portion of a reactor shell, and any combination thereof. The pipe unit may not only be made of pipe, but partly as a compartment in the receiver housing. Thus, the pipe unit may be defined in part by a portion of the reactor shell.

Detailed Description
Fig. 1 shows an internal combustion engine system 1 having a turbocharger 4 downstream of an exhaust gas receiver 3. The turbocharger 4 and the exhaust gas receiver 3 are arranged on a top platform at the top of the engine 2 such that exhaust gas emitted at the top of the engine is injected into the exhaust gas receiver 3 through a plurality of exhaust gas inlets 26 in the receiver housing 14 of the exhaust gas receiver 3. The exhaust gas receiver 3 is also connected withNO shown by dotted linexThe reduction unit 5 is fluidly connected. When it is desired to purify the exhaust gases, the exhaust gases are led from the exhaust gas receiver 3 to NO via a conduit (shown by dashed lines)xReduction of unit 5 and from NOxThe reduction unit 5 leads to the turbocharger 4. In another operating mode, the exhaust gas is conducted directly from the exhaust gas receiver 3 to the turbocharger 4.
In yet another mode of operation, the exhaust gas from the exhaust gas receiver 3 is split into two separate streams, such that one stream is supplied directly to the turbocharger 4 and the other stream is led to NO before being led to the turbocharger 4xA reduction unit 5. Usually when NO is requiredxThis mode of operation is applied at a specific temperature of the reduction unit 5, since the hot exhaust gas ensures that NO is maintainedxThe temperature of the reduction unit 5.
In fig. 2, a portion of the receiver housing 14 of the exhaust gas receiver 3 has been removed for illustration purposes only, to show that the internal combustion engine system 1 comprises a guiding device 6, which guiding device 6 controls the flow of exhaust gas in a first operating mode, such that the exhaust gas is guided directly into the turbocharger 4, and in a second operating mode controls the exhaust gas to be guided through NO before being guided to the turbocharger 4xA reduction unit 5. The guiding means 6 comprises a first inlet 7 in fluid communication with the exhaust gas receiver 3, with NOxA second inlet 8 in fluid communication with the reduction unit 5 and an outlet 9 in fluid communication with the turbocharger 4. The guiding means 6 further comprises a pipe unit 12 connecting the first inlet 7, the second inlet 8 and the outlet 9. The guiding means further comprises a bypass valve 10 having a valve element 11 for closing and opening the first inlet 7, and a first reaction valve 16, the first reaction valve 16 being arranged in fluid communication with the second inlet 8 for controlling the exhaust gases from the NOxThe passage of the reduction unit 5 to the guide device 6. The internal combustion engine system 1 further comprises a second reaction valve 17 arranged in fluid communication with an aperture 18 in the receiver housing 14 for allowing exhaust gases to pass to NOx A reduction unit 5.
In the first operating mode, when the exhaust gases are led directly to the turbocharger 4, the bypass valve 10 is opened and the first reaction valve 16 and the second reaction valve 17 are closed. In this wayBy passing NOxA reduction unit 5. In a second operating mode, the bypass valve 10 is closed and the first 16 and second 17 reaction valves are opened, so that the exhaust gases are led to NO through the bore 18 in the receiver housing 14xThe reduction unit 5 is then led to the pipe unit 12 through the second inlet 8 and from the outlet 9 to the turbocharger 4. It can be seen that the first inlet 7, the valve element 11 and a major part of the pipe unit 12 (i.e. the major part means more than 50% of the pipe unit) are arranged in the receiver housing 14. Thus, the main part of the guiding means 6 is arranged inside the exhaust gas receiver 3, minimizing the space required on the platform, which reduces the total space required on the ship.
Thus, by incorporating the whole or at least a major part of the bypass valve 10 and the conduit unit 12 for connecting the exhaust gas receiver 14 and the turbocharger 4 into the exhaust gas receiver 3, the total space occupied by the internal combustion engine system 1 is substantially reduced/substantially minimized. The exhaust gas receiver 3 is enlarged so that the volume of the exhaust gas receiver 3 is the same, but this enlargement can be achieved by extending the exhaust gas receiver 3, which does not result in more space being required on the platform to surround the exhaust gas receiver 3, since the engine 2 is still somewhat longer than the exhaust gas receiver 3.
In addition, by arranging the bypass valve 10 and the main part of the pipe unit 12 inside the exhaust gas receiver 3, only the location of the outlet has to be designed, depending on the type of turbocharger preferred by the ship builder. Thus, the location of the outlet 9 in one engine design with a radial inlet turbocharger 4 must be changed when another axial inlet turbocharger design is made. Fig. 2 discloses a radial inlet turbocharger design and fig. 3 discloses an axial inlet turbocharger design. Compared to fig. 3, the guiding device 6 in fig. 2 is rotated such that the second inlet 8 in fig. 2 is rotated about 90 ° with respect to fig. 3, but the position of the second inlet 8 in the guiding device 6 is the same and does not have to be changed between one turbocharger design and another.
The pipe unit 12 of fig. 2 and 3 comprises a first pipe section 33 and a second pipe section 34. The first conduit portion 33 has a first end at which the first inlet 7 is arranged and a second end connected to a second end of the second conduit portion 34. The second conduit portion 34 has a first end at which the second inlet 8 is arranged. The first and second conduit portions 33, 34 are connected to form an angle a (shown in fig. 3) therebetween. The first and second pipe portions 33, 34 are connected by a connection 35, the connection 35 being arranged inside the receiver housing 14.
The bypass valve 10 comprises a control unit 15 for controlling the valve element 11 to open or close the first inlet 7, in fig. 2 the control unit 15 is at least partly arranged outside the receiver housing 14. The receiver housing 14 therefore has a third opening 27 to provide a passage, so that the control unit 15 of the bypass valve 10 can be arranged outside the exhaust gas receiver 3, with the valve element 11 controlled by it arranged inside the exhaust gas receiver 3.
In fig. 1, the second inlet 8, where the first reaction valve 16 operates, is arranged outside the receiver housing 14, but in another embodiment the second inlet 8 may be arranged inside, such that only the first reaction valve 16 extends on the outside of the receiver housing 14 through the first opening 23 in the receiver housing 14. The internal combustion engine system 1 further comprises a second reaction valve 17 arranged in fluid communication with an aperture 18 in the receiver housing 14 for allowing exhaust gases to pass to NOx A reduction unit 5. To ensure complete bypass of NOxThe reduction unit 5 and the second reaction valve 17 are closed. The first reaction valve 16 is throttled in particular during the start-up of the engine 2.
The outlet 9 of the guiding means 6 is arranged upstream of the turbocharger 4, which in fig. 1 is arranged in the second opening 24 of the receiver housing 14 to provide fluid communication between the outlet 9 of the guiding means 6 and the turbocharger 4. Thus, the outlet 9 is arranged inside the receiver housing 14. The pipe unit 12 may also extend beyond the second opening 24 of the receiver housing 14, whereby the outlet 9 is arranged outside the receiver housing 14. In fig. 1, the outlet 9 of the guiding means 6 is arranged axially with respect to the receiver housing 14, the guiding means 6 being fluidly connected to the turbocharger via a conduit 31 through a radial turbine inlet 32A of the turbocharger 4. In fig. 3, the outlet 9 of the guiding means 6 is arranged radially with respect to the receiver housing 14, the guiding means 6 being fluidly connected to the turbocharger 4 via a conduit 31 through an axial turbine inlet 32B of the turbocharger 4.
As shown in fig. 2, the guiding means 6 further comprises a third inlet 30 in fluid communication with the scavenging air receiver 19 for letting scavenging air into the gas in the duct unit 12 of the guiding means 6 by means of a scavenging air valve 25, which scavenging air valve 25 controls the passage of scavenging air to the third inlet 30. The receiver housing 14 has a fourth opening 28 to provide fluid communication between the guiding means 6 and the scavenge air receiver 19, from which fourth opening 28 the guiding means 6 may extend or be connected to the fourth opening 28 of the receiver housing 14.
The guiding device 6 of fig. 3 is supported inside the receiver housing 14 and thus comprises a support 22 arranged inside the receiver housing 14, which support 22 is connected to and supports the pipe unit 12 of the guiding device 6. The pipe 21 of the pipe unit 12 is arranged at a distance d from the inner wall 29 of the receiver housing 14 so that exhaust gases can circulate around the pipe unit 12. According to the support 22, the pipe unit 12 may be arranged in the center of the exhaust gas receiver 3, and preferably closer to the bottom of the exhaust gas receiver 3 than to the top of the exhaust gas receiver 3, to provide more space for newly injected exhaust gas from the plurality of exhaust gas inlets 26. The pipe unit 12 comprises a pipe 21 for guiding the exhaust gases in the pipe unit 12, the pipe 21 having an inner diameter IDPAt least 0.2 m. In fig. 2, the outer diameter OD of the pipe 21 of the pipe unit 12PAt least the inner diameter ID of the receiver housing 14R40% of (shown in FIG. 3).
In fig. 1, the receiver housing 14 further includes a hatch 20 to provide access to at least a portion of the bypass valve 10 in the receiver housing 14. Thus, a person can open the hatch to increase access to the bypass valve 10 of the guiding means 6, the first inlet 7 and a part of the duct unit 12. If more guiding devices 6 are arranged inside the receiver housing 14 so that personnel will have more access from more than one hatch 20 to all inlets 7, 8, outlets 9, ducts 21 and valves 10, 16, 17, the receiver housing 14 may be provided with more hatches.
