A high-pressure pipeline is arranged above the methanol fuel tank and is connected with the outlet of a natural gas fuel tank voltage stabilizer, and the methanol fuel in the methanol fuel tank is pressurized by utilizing the high pressure (0.8-0.9 MPa) after the natural gas is decompressed, so that the pressure required when the methanol fuel enters the injection is ensured.
The methanol steam is sprayed by using one set of gas nozzle shared by the methanol steam and the natural gas, so that the methanol steam injection device is simple in structure, convenient to arrange and install and relatively low in cost.
The engine of the invention takes methanol fuel as main fuel, natural gas engine (CNG) as auxiliary fuel, and adopts dual fuel to supply fuel; when the engine is started at low temperature, natural gas is used as fuel, liquid methanol is heated by a vaporizer by using waste heat of waste gas after cooling liquid of the engine reaches a certain temperature, the liquid methanol is changed into methanol steam, and the methanol fuel enters a cylinder in a methanol steam mode for combustion.
The methanol fuel and the natural gas have very friendly complementarity, the two fuels are both one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms in view of molecular formula, but the methanol is one more oxygen atom than the natural gas fuel, and as the fuel of the internal combustion engine, the methanol steam and the natural gas have many similar combustion characteristics, the anti-knock index octane numbers of the two fuels respectively reach 127 and 114, and the anti-knock property of the two fuels is higher than that of a gasoline engine, so that the compression ratio of the engine can be improved, and the two fuels can be premixed, diffused and combusted by adopting a spark plug ignition mode. The vaporization temperature of the natural gas is-162 ℃, so even in an extremely low winter environment, the natural gas can easily form uniform mixed gas with air, the low-temperature cold start is very good, and the defect of difficult low-temperature cold start of methanol can be overcome. The boiling point of the methanol fuel at normal pressure is 64.7 ℃, and the methanol fuel is easier to heat and vaporize into methanol steam. After methanol is vaporized, the methanol enters the cylinder in a gaseous state for combustion, the mode is completely the same as the mode of combustion of natural gas entering the cylinder, the same natural gas nozzle and an electric control system can be adopted, the two fuels adopt an equivalent mixed gas control mode, a three-way catalyst is adopted for emission aftertreatment, and the conversion efficiency of the emitted pollutants is higher. And the methanol steam injection mode avoids methanol entering the cylinder in a liquid state, which causes the problems of cylinder liner abrasion aggravation and engine oil dilution, and reduces the emission of unburned methanol and HC.
The control method of the two fuels of natural gas and methanol has three modes: the starting mode, the heat engine mode and the normal working mode are respectively adopted. In the starting mode, an electronic control cut-off valve of the methanol fuel supply system is closed, a natural gas electronic control cut-off valve is opened, the engine is cold started by adopting single natural gas, and because the vaporization pressure of the natural gas is-162 ℃, the natural gas is easy to form homogeneous mixed gas with air in a low-temperature environment, and the cold starting effect is good. After the engine is successfully started, the engine enters a heat engine mode, natural gas fuel is also adopted in the heat engine process, and the natural gas characteristic value MAP written by a control system is adopted for controlling the ignition angle and the fuel injection quantity of the engine. When the heat engine reaches a certain degree, the engine carries out condition judgment according to parameters such as ambient temperature, coolant temperature, methanol steam temperature and pressure, and if the conditions are met, the engine enters a normal working mode. The normal operating mode is at first opened the automatically controlled trip valve of methyl alcohol, guarantees that methyl alcohol steam enters into the common rail pipe, then breaks off the automatically controlled trip valve of natural gas again, because the common rail pipe can remain certain natural gas, has two kinds of fuel and participates in the transition operating mode of burning simultaneously, and the judgement condition whether transition operating mode is ended can be judged according to the closed loop feedback of air-fuel ratio. After the transition working condition is finished, the engine enters a methanol single fuel working mode, and the ignition angle and the fuel injection quantity are controlled by using the methanol characteristic values written by the control system.

The Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is stored in the natural gas storage tank, the pressure is generally 10-20MPa, the capacity of the natural gas storage tank does not need to be too large, the volume of the natural gas storage tank is generally 1/10 of the volume of the methanol fuel tank, the pressure of the compressed natural gas is reduced to about 1-2MPa after being reduced by a reducing valve, and then the pressure is stably controlled to be 0.7-0.8MPa through a pressure stabilizing valve.

The methanol vaporizer is arranged on the exhaust pipe in series, a waste gas bypass valve is arranged in the methanol vaporizer, the amount of high-temperature waste gas flowing through the vaporizer can be controlled by opening the valve, and the requirement for preparing methanol steam is met according to the flow demand of methanol under different working conditions. After methanol passes through the vaporizer, generated steam is temporarily stored in the buffer tank, and the volume of the methanol steam buffer tank is designed according to the displacement of the engine so as to meet the hysteresis effect of the methanol vaporizer for preparing methanol steam under the transient working condition. The common rail pipe is a device for collecting the natural gas and the methanol steam, and can balance the pressure stability before fuel injection. The nozzles are arranged on the common rail pipe connected with the air inlet end, the air outlet end is connected with the air inlet header pipe, and a single-point injection mode is adopted (according to the flow of the nozzles, a plurality of nozzles can be adopted if the flow of the nozzles is not enough, and the nozzles are connected in parallel between the air inlet header pipe and the common rail pipe).
The methanol vapor or natural gas fuel is mixed with the EGR waste gas and the fresh air in the EGR mixer 14, and the mixer is used for fully mixing the methanol vapor (or natural gas) fuel with the fresh air and the EGR waste gas to form a mixed gas with uniform temperature and concentration and then enters the air inlet pipe. The intake pipe main line is provided with the heating water jacket, and heating medium adopts the engine coolant liquid, and the coolant liquid is got from engine cooling system microcirculation, guarantees that the engine also has the function of preheating when the warm-up to avoid methyl alcohol steam before getting into the jar, in the intake pipe condensation for liquid methyl alcohol, influence the homogeneity that methyl alcohol fuel got into each jar, and then influence engine combustion stability. The EGR adopts a high-pressure EGR system, the EGR rate is controlled through an EGR valve, and the temperature of the exhaust gas after the EGR is cooled is controlled to be 100-120 ℃.
According to the difference of the external environment temperature and the engine coolant temperature, the engine is divided into three working condition modes of starting working condition, warming working condition and normal working condition. And the starting working condition and the warming working condition are both injected by adopting natural gas fuel.

After entering a normal working mode, according to different theoretical air-fuel ratios of methanol, natural gas and air, the flow characteristic of the nozzle adopts the injection pulse width of methanol fuel, and other control parameters of an ignition angle are also switched to the parameters of the working condition of the methanol fuel.
The engine is under normal mode, because the engine has transient condition, and exhaust temperature is not stable, and methanol vapor is prepared and just has the unstable phenomenon of flow, for example when accelerating suddenly, and demand methanol vapor jet flow is great in the twinkling of an eye, and exhaust temperature preheats not enough this moment, and the large-traffic demand of transient condition methanol vapor can be compensatied to the methanol vapor buffer tank who consequently arranges.
