- Exhaust gas recirculation is all the more effective the lower the gas outlet temperatures at the exhaust gas cooler are.
- High-pressure exhaust gas recirculation In the case of high-pressure exhaust gas recirculation, exhaust gas is usually taken off in front of the turbine and the charge air is supplied to the charge air cooler. The cooling of the recirculated exhaust gas takes place by the hot engine coolant, so that due to the high temperatures usually no Exhaust gas condensate is formed. High-pressure exhaust gas recirculation achieves a significant reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions, but with a simultaneous increase in particulate emissions. The particle or particulate matter emission can be reduced by particle filters.

- Valve-controlled a part of the exhaust gas purified by particles can be recirculated at a branch, the remainder of the exhaust gas passes through the exhaust to the outside.
- the exhaust gas recirculation quantity is determined by the settling pressure gradient of exhaust back pressure and intake negative pressure, so that high exhaust gas recirculation quantities are possible with simple means.
- the recirculated part of the exhaust gas is passed through a two-stage exhaust gas cooler 2, wherein in the first stage 2 'a pre-cooling by the engine coolant, which circulates in an otherwise conventionally designed engine cooling circuit, takes place. If necessary, the exhaust gas temperature is further reduced in the second stage 2 ", while the second stage 2" is part of a low-temperature cooling circuit.
- This has an air-cooled Niedertem ⁇ temperature cooler NK, which is arranged in the air stream following the motor coolant cooling high-temperature radiator HK, a compressor K for circulating the coolant or refrigerant and in parallel branches a charge air cooler L and the second stage. 2 of the exhaust gas cooler 2, wherein the cooling or refrigerant distribution is controlled by means of valves.
- a valve-controlled if necessary available bypass B is provided, which runs parallel to the engine N / 1 and charge air can lead past the same.
- a condensate separator 3 is provided, with the aid of which condensate can be removed from the cold recirculated exhaust gas before it is mixed with the fresh air sucked in.
- a further condensate in particular a centrifugal separator as described above with clutchnah ⁇ me to the figures 9 or 10.
- a thermal condensate discharge 30 For disposal of the accumulating condensate, which is classified as hazardous substance and therefore can not be stored on board a vehicle, a thermal condensate discharge 30 is provided.
- the acids formed can be converted into non-critical components with the aid of a multi-stage thermal reactor.
- the condensate formed can be used for the precooling of the recirculated exhaust gas.
- FIG. 12 An example of the arrangement of such a condensate discharge 30 in ei ⁇ ner low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation is shown schematically in Figures 12 and 13.
- condensate which collects on the exhaust gas cooler 2, in front of the compressor V and in or after the charge air cooler L via lines gene to a central condensate collector 31 out of which it is fed via a line to a thermal reactor 32, the part of thermal condensate discharge 30 is.
- the thermal reactor 32 is subsequently integrated with the filter F in an exhaust manifold of the engine.
- the condensate-carrying lines in particular the Lei ⁇ tion from the condensate collector 31 to the thermal reactor 32, vor ⁇ lying on a cross section, which allows a promotion of the condensate due to capillary forces, so that can be despised on pumps.
- there is no essential storage of the resulting condensate in the engine system but the condensate is disturbed. directly passed to the thermal reactor 32, heated therein and then discharged.
- the condensate is used in a first stage S1 for cooling the recirculated exhaust gas, for which purpose a correspondingly formed heat exchanger forms the first stage 2 'of the exhaust duct 2, ie is arranged before the actual exhaust gas cooler 2 enters that substantially the entire enthalpy change of the condensate can be used for the first stage S 1 of the cooling of the exhaust gas.
- This causes a heating of the condensate.
- ribs or corresponding measures which increase the surface area are provided for optimizing the heat transfer of the exhaust gas heat to the condensate.
- a second step S2 the evaporation of the heated Konden ⁇ sats, whereby the further heating presently follows er ⁇ by means of a self-regulating PTC-Heizeemperents (Positive Thermal Coefficient) to about 250 to 300 0 C, and takes place in a third step S3, a Reheating to 350 to 450 0 C.
- PTC-Heizelements Positive Thermal Coefficient
- the PTC heating element is designed such that it automatically stops when no condensate has accumulated.
- the Resterhitzung the evaporated condensate in the third stage is carried out in the present case by means of an electrically heated Rohr ⁇ heater, which has a surface temperature of 350 to 450 ° C and Einbau ⁇ th or packing with a large surface area and possibly catalytic action.
- nitric acid decomposes into NO 2 , N 2 , H 2 O and O 2 and sulfuric acid or sulfurous acid in H 2 O and SO 2 or SO 3 according to the following reactions: 4 HNO 3 -> 4 NO 2 + 2 H 2 O + O 2 4 HNO 3 -> 2 N 2 + 2 H 2 O + 5 O 2 H 2 SO 4 -> SO 3 + H 2 OH 2 SO 3 -> SO 2 + H 2 O
- the now harmless condensate is fed to the exhaust gas stream and disposed of via the exhaust.
- an additional blower can be provided, which ensures compliance with the limit values regardless of the function of the condensate discharge 30.
