Description
"Elektroabscheider mit Eigenspülung""Electric separator with its own rinsing"
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Elektroabscheider nach dem Ober- begriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to an electrical separator according to the preamble of claim 1.
Derartige Elektroabscheider sind aus dem Bereich der Fahrzeugtechnik zum Abscheiden von Öl aus dem Gasstrom einer Kurbelgehäuseentlüftung bei Verbrennungskraftmaschinen be- kannt.Such electrical separators are known from the field of vehicle technology for separating oil from the gas flow of a crankcase ventilation in internal combustion engines.
Beim Betrieb des Elektroabscheiders kann es zu Ablagerungen an der Niederschlagselektrode kommen, welche den Abstand zwischen der Niederschlagselektrode und der Sprühelektrode unzulässig verringern. Es sind Vorschläge bekannt, Ablagerungen an Elektroabscheidern mittels beweglicher Bauteile zu reinigen.During operation of the electrostatic precipitator, deposits can form on the precipitation electrode, which impermissibly reduce the distance between the precipitation electrode and the spray electrode. Proposals are known for cleaning deposits on electrical separators by means of movable components.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen gattungsge- mäßen Elektroabscheider dahingehend zu verbessern, dass dieser mit möglichst preisgünstigen und betriebssicheren Mitteln die Bildung von Ablagerungen an der Niederschlagselektrode verhindert.The object of the invention is to improve an electrical separator of the generic type in such a way that it prevents the formation of deposits on the precipitation electrode with the most economical and reliable means possible.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch einen Elektroabscheider mit denThis task is carried out by an electrical separator with the
Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.
Die Erfindung schlägt mit anderen Worten vor, die Niederschlagselektrode kontinuierlich zu spülen, und zwar mit dem aus dem Gasstrom abgeschiedenen bzw. aus dem Elektroabschei- der noch auszutragenden Öl. Die Sprühelektrode ist mit ihremFeatures of claim 1 solved. In other words, the invention proposes to continuously rinse the precipitation electrode, specifically with the oil separated from the gas stream or still to be discharged from the electrostatic precipitator. The spray electrode is with your
Coronabereich entgegen der Strömungsrichtung des Gasstroms ausgerichtet.Corona area aligned against the flow direction of the gas stream.
Als Corona- bzw. Niederschlagsbereich ist dabei im Rahmen des vorliegenden Vorschlags jeweils ein Bereich des Elekroab- scheiders in Strömungsrichtung des Gasstroms bezeichnet. Im Coronabereich befindet sich der die Corona ausbildende Teil der Sprühelektrode, welcher die Partikel auflädt bzw. Ionisiert und wo nur ein geringer Teil der Partikel bereits an der Nieder- schlagselektrode angelagert wird. Im anschließenden Niederschlagsbereich wird der Großteil der aufgeladenen Partikel an der Niederschlagselektrode angelagert.In the context of the present proposal, the area of the electro-separator in the flow direction of the gas stream is referred to as the corona or precipitation area. In the corona area is the part of the spray electrode which forms the corona, which charges or ionizes the particles and where only a small part of the particles is already deposited on the precipitation electrode. In the subsequent precipitation area, the majority of the charged particles are deposited on the precipitation electrode.
An der Niederschlagselektrode ist in diesem Niederschlagsbe- reich oder auch in Richtung des Gasstroms weiter stromabwärts eine Auslassöffnung vorgesehen, über welche das auf der Niederschlagselektrode niedergeschlagene Öl abgeführt werden kann.In this precipitation area or also in the direction of the gas flow further downstream, an outlet opening is provided on the precipitation electrode, through which the oil deposited on the precipitation electrode can be discharged.
Durch die vorgeschlagene Ausgestaltung des Elektroabscheiders kann auf bewegliche Bauteile, die gegebenenfalls vibrationsanfällig sein können, verzichtet werden.The proposed design of the electrostatic precipitator makes it possible to dispense with movable components which may be susceptible to vibration.
In einer ersten Variante kann ein erfindungsgemäßer Elektro- abscheider mit einem aufwärts weisenden Coronabereich vorgesehen sein, also innerhalb eines abwärts gerichteten Gasstroms angeordnet sein. In diesem Fall befindet sich die Auslassöffnung für das Öl entsprechend weit unten. Das Abfließen des Öls an der Niederschlagselektrode wird einerseits durch die Schwerkraft und andererseits durch den Gasstrom unterstützt.In a first variant, an electrical separator according to the invention can be provided with an upward-facing corona region, that is to say it can be arranged within a downward-directed gas stream. In this case, the oil outlet is located far below. The drainage of the oil at the precipitation electrode is supported on the one hand by gravity and on the other hand by the gas flow.
Eine Richtungsumkehr des Luftstroms oberhalb der Sprüh-
elektrode bewirkt fliehkraftbedingt eine Vorabscheidung insbesondere der größeren Partikel aus dem Gasstrom, die auf diese Weise an die Wand der Strömungs-Umlenk-Kammer geraten, von wo aus sie zur Niederschlagselektrode herabfließen können.A reversal of the direction of the air flow above the spray Due to centrifugal force, the electrode pre-separates, in particular, the larger particles from the gas stream, which in this way get to the wall of the flow deflection chamber, from where they can flow down to the precipitation electrode.
Besonders vorteilhaft kann eine derartige Kammer als Zyklon ausgestaltet sein, so dass diese Kammer als regelrechter Grobabscheider oder Vorabscheider dienen kann und auf weitere, separate Grobabscheider verzichtet werden kann. Es kann da- her lediglich der Einbau des Elektroabscheiders ausreichend sein, um eine ausreichende Reinigung des Gasstroms zu ermöglichend, so dass sowohl hinsichtlich der Montage, als auch hinsichtlich des benötigten Bauraums und schließlich auch hinsichtlich der benötigten Materialmenge erhebliche Einsparungen durch die Verwendung eines derart ausgestalteten Elektroabscheiders gegenüber der Verwendung eines Elektroabscheiders möglich sind, welcher ausschließlich als Feinabscheider dient und mit einem zusätzlich vorgeschalteten, separaten Grobabscheider zusammenwirkt.Such a chamber can be designed particularly advantageously as a cyclone, so that this chamber can serve as a normal coarse separator or pre-separator and further separate coarse separators can be dispensed with. Therefore, only the installation of the electrostatic precipitator can be sufficient to enable adequate cleaning of the gas flow, so that considerable savings can be made by using such a design both in terms of assembly and in terms of the installation space required and finally also in terms of the amount of material required Electric separators are possible compared to the use of an electric separator, which only serves as a fine separator and interacts with an additional, upstream, separate coarse separator.
In einer zweiten Variante, mit aufwärts strömendem Gasstrom, ist der Coronabereich der Sprühelektrode abwärts weisend ausgerichtet. Der Gasstrom muss eine ausreichend hohe Durchströmgeschwindigkeit aufweisen, damit eine möglichst große Menge des an der Niederschlagselektrode niedergeschlagenenIn a second variant, with the gas stream flowing upward, the corona region of the spray electrode is oriented facing downward. The gas flow must have a sufficiently high flow rate so that as large a quantity as possible of the precipitated on the precipitation electrode
Öls nach oben transportiert wird und dort in die Auslassöffnung gelangen kann, um über eine separate Auslassleitung in den übrigen Ölkreislauf zurückzugelangen. Auch hier ist oberhalb der Sprühelektrode eine Kammer zur Strömungsumrichtung des Gasstroms vorgesehen, wobei die Auslassöffnung für das abgeschiedene Öl zwischen dieser Kammer und der Niederschlagselektrode angeordnet ist. Vorteilhaft kann in dieser Kammer ein Prallkörper vorgesehen sein, der die Richtungsumlenkung des Gasstroms bewirkt und so den Abscheidegrad verbessert.
Zwei Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung werden anhand der beiden rein schematischen Zeichnungen nachfolgend näher erläutert.Oil is transported upwards and can get into the outlet opening to return to the rest of the oil circuit via a separate outlet line. Here, too, a chamber is provided above the spray electrode for redirecting the flow of the gas stream, the outlet opening for the separated oil being arranged between this chamber and the precipitation electrode. A baffle can advantageously be provided in this chamber, which effects the directional deflection of the gas flow and thus improves the degree of separation. Two exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail below with reference to the two purely schematic drawings.
In Fig. 1 ist mit 1 schematisch ein Elektroabscheider insgesamt bezeichnet, der eine Sprühelektrode 2 aufweist sowie eine Niederschlagselektrode 3. Die Sprühelektrode 2 weist einen nadelartig ausgestalteten Coronabereich 4 auf sowie einen Niederschlagsbereich 5 mit demgegenüber sehr viel größeren Durchmesser.In Fig. 1, 1 schematically denotes an electrical separator as a whole, which has a spray electrode 2 and a precipitation electrode 3. The spray electrode 2 has a needle-shaped corona region 4 and a precipitation region 5 with a much larger diameter.
Der Gasstrom wird durch den Elektroabscheider 1 geführt, indem er zunächst durch eine Gaseintrittsöffnung 6 in eine Kammer 7 eintritt, wobei die Gaseintrittsöffnung 6 so ausgerichtet und die Kammer 7 so gestaltet ist, dass sich eine Zyklonwirkung ergibt und insbesondere die gröberen Olpartikel bereits in dieser Kammer 7 an deren Kammerwandung abgeschieden werden.The gas flow is passed through the electrostatic precipitator 1 by first entering a chamber 7 through a gas inlet opening 6, the gas inlet opening 6 being oriented and the chamber 7 being designed in such a way that a cyclone effect results and in particular the coarser oil particles already in this chamber 7 are deposited on the chamber wall.
Von der Kammer 7 geht die Wandung zur Niederschlagselek- trode 3 über, so dass das Öl, welches innerhalb der Kammer abgeschieden wurde, an der Niederschlagselektrode 3 entlang läuft, diese benetzt, und auf diese Weise die Bildung von Ablagerungen an der Niederschlagselektrode 3 verhindert.The wall passes from the chamber 7 to the precipitation electrode 3, so that the oil which has been separated inside the chamber runs along the precipitation electrode 3, wets it, and in this way prevents the formation of deposits on the precipitation electrode 3.
Im weiteren Verlauf des Gasstroms gelangt dieser in denIn the further course of the gas flow, it enters the
Coronabereich 4, wo die im Gasstrom verbliebenen Partikel aufgeladen werden. Hierdurch bewegen sich die Partikel zur Niederschlagselektrode 3, wobei sich insbesondere in dem Abschnitt des Elektroabscheiders 1 , in welchem sich der Nieder- schlagsbereich 5 der Sprühelektrode befindet, dieser Niederschlag an der Niederschlagselektrode 3 sammelt.Corona area 4, where the particles remaining in the gas stream are charged. As a result, the particles move to the precipitation electrode 3, this precipitation collecting at the precipitation electrode 3, in particular in the section of the electro-separator 1 in which the precipitation region 5 of the spray electrode is located.
Das gesamte abgeschiedene Öivolumen gelangt unten an der Niederschlagselektrode 3 zu einer Sammelrinne 8, von welcher eine Auslassöffnung 9 das Öl in den Ölkreislauf zurückleitet.
In Fig. 2 ist ein zweites Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung dargestellt, bei welchem die grundsätzlich gleichen Bauteile mit denselben Bezugszeichen wie in Fig. 1 gekennzeichnet sind. Bei diesem zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel ist jedoch die Strömungs- elektrode 2 nach unten ausgerichtet, weist also einen nach unten gerichteten Coronabereich 4 auf, wobei dementsprechend dieser Elektroabscheider 1 von unten nach oben durchströmt wird. Die an der Niederschlagselektrode 3 angeordneten Olpartikel werden durch den Gasstrom nach oben transportiert, ohne jedoch mitgerissen zu werden und in den Gasstrom zu gelangen, da sie an der Niederschlagselektrode 3 koagulieren und entsprechend große Partikel bzw. einen Ölfilm auf der Niederschlagselektrode 3 bilden.The entire separated ovum volume reaches the bottom of the precipitation electrode 3 to a collecting trough 8, from which an outlet opening 9 guides the oil back into the oil circuit. FIG. 2 shows a second exemplary embodiment of the invention, in which the fundamentally identical components are identified with the same reference numerals as in FIG. 1. In this second exemplary embodiment, however, the flow electrode 2 is oriented downward, that is to say it has a corona region 4 directed downward, with the flow through this electrical separator 1 accordingly from the bottom upward. The oil particles arranged on the precipitation electrode 3 are transported upwards by the gas stream, but without being carried along and entering the gas stream, since they coagulate at the precipitation electrode 3 and form correspondingly large particles or an oil film on the precipitation electrode 3.
In der Kammer 7 zur Richtungsumlenkung des Gasstroms, die auch bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel oberhalb der Sprühelektrode 2 vorgesehen ist, ist ein Prallkörper 10 angeordnet, welcher die Richtungsumlenkung bewirkt und, obwohl als Prallkörper bezeichnet, strömungsoptimiert ist, da der Gasstrom nicht zum Abscheiden von Ölpartikeln gegen den Prallkörper 10 gelenkt wird, sondern der Prallkörper 10 soll den Gasstrom umlenken und gegen die Wandungen der Kammer 7 richten, so dass hier gegebenenfalls noch eine Nachreinigung des Gasstroms erfolgt.In the chamber 7 for deflecting the direction of the gas flow, which is also provided above the spray electrode 2 in this exemplary embodiment, a baffle 10 is arranged which effects the directional deflection and, although referred to as the baffle, is flow-optimized since the gas flow does not counteract the separation of oil particles the impact body 10 is steered, but the impact body 10 is intended to deflect the gas flow and point it against the walls of the chamber 7, so that the gas flow may be subsequently cleaned here.
Das entlang der Niederschlagselektrode 3 aufsteigende und abgeschiedene Öl gelangt in eine Sammelrinne 8, die zwischen der Kammer 7 und der Niederschlagselektrode 3 vorgesehen ist, wobei von dieser Sammelrinne 8 aus das Öl durch eine Aus- lassöffnung 9 aus dem Elektroabscheider 1 herausgeleitet und beispielsweise in den übrigen Ölkreislauf zurückgeführt wird.
The oil rising and separated along the precipitation electrode 3 reaches a collecting trough 8, which is provided between the chamber 7 and the precipitation electrode 3, the oil being guided from this collecting trough 8 out of the electrical separator 1 through an outlet opening 9 and, for example, into the remaining oil circuit is returned.
