Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a method and a device for the treatment of an exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine.
  • a particularly preferred field of application of the present invention is an application for the treatment of an exhaust gas of large-volume internal combustion engines, in particular diesel engines, in particular in locomotives and water vehicles.
  • the exhaust gases of internal combustion engines contain undesirable substances whose exhaust gas content in many countries must fall below legally prescribed limits. This is also the concentration of particles in the exhaust gas, which in many countries may not exceed certain values. Especially in large-volume internal combustion engines, however, the observance of limit values is sometimes difficult, especially under idling conditions.
  • the inventive method for processing an exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine wherein at least two modules are designed for exhaust gas treatment, based on the fact that an exhaust gas flow is at least partially deflected in response to a load condition of the internal combustion engine, that one or more modules are flowed through by at least parts of the exhaust gas.
  • Exhaust treatment here means, in particular, the reduction of the concentration of at least one component of the exhaust gas.
  • an exhaust gas treatment here also means a reduction of the particle fraction of the exhaust gas.
  • the load state of the internal combustion engine has a particular effect on the following variables of the exhaust gas: temperature, exhaust gas mass flow, pollutant concentration and / or average exhaust gas velocity.
  • Diesel engines that are used in Switzerland, such as locomotives, watercraft, such as ships and / or boats and stationary operation, often occur only very few load points, such as an idling load point, a partial load point and a full load point.
  • all modules may be designed as idle module, which is adapted to the exhaust gas situation at idle and thus suitable for the treatment of the exhaust gas under idling conditions.
  • the exhaust gas flow can be deflected so that at least two modules are applied substantially uniformly with a summary exhaust gas flow.
  • a summary exhaust gas flow is understood as meaning, in particular, a summed and / or integrated exhaust gas flow, in particular an exhaust gas mass flow or volume flow, over the time through which the corresponding module flows. This leads to a substantially uniform flow through the modules.
  • each module comprises at least one particle filter for reducing the content of particles in the exhaust gas
  • a uniform loading and optionally a uniformly changing pressure loss is advantageously achieved.
  • a first module may be designed so that it is adapted alone or with another module to the exhaust gas situation in the partial load point, while a second module may be designed so that it in cooperation with another module and the first module to the exhaust gas situation at full load is adjusted.
  • a module regularly comprises at least one honeycomb body, which comprises cavities through which an exhaust gas can flow, for example channels.
  • a honeycomb body may in particular comprise a ceramic and / or a metallic honeycomb body.
  • a ceramic honeycomb body can be produced as extruded monolith, while a metallic honeycomb body can comprise at least one at least partially structured layer, which in particular is deformed in such a way that cavities through which an exhaust gas can flow are formed. This deformation is understood in particular to mean winding or twisting of at least one stack of at least one metallic layer. In this case, it is also possible to use substantially smooth layers which, together with the structures of the at least partially structured layer, form the cavities.
  • the honeycomb body can also comprise walls which are partially throughflowable for a fluid.
  • the honeycomb body may form or include a particulate filter.
  • the method according to the invention can lead to an increase in the Reynolds number, in which, as it were, the total available through-flow area of the modules for exhaust-gas treatment is reduced and thus the flow velocity and Reynolds number are increased.
  • a corresponding exhaust system it is possible for a corresponding exhaust system to comprise four modules for reducing the particle concentration in the exhaust gas.
  • the system is operated by appropriate control of the connecting means so that only one of four possible modules is flowed through by the exhaust gas.
  • this reduces the maximum available reaction or filter surface, but this leads in a particularly advantageous manner to an increase in the flow velocity and thus to an increase in the Reynolds number of the flow.
  • the lower reaction and / or filter surface is not disadvantageous, since at idle conditions, in particular the particle content is so low that the corresponding filter or reaction surface of the module is sufficient for sufficient implementation or filtering.
  • a treatment of the exhaust gas can be done in an effective manner. This is advantageous since there are longer no-load or low-load phases, especially in large-volume internal combustion engines, for example in shunting locomotives when waiting for the next shunting operation or in ship engines which are used, for example, only for power supply in the port.
  • a particle filter may be formed.
  • a corresponding oxidation catalyst can be formed on a honeycomb body, which in particular leads to an oxidation of nitrogen monoxide (NO) to nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ), which is oxidized. dationsstoff the carbon contained in the particles is used.
  • a particle filter is referred to as a continuous regenerating particulate filter (CRT).
  • the reduction of the particle concentration takes place in an open particle filter.
  • An open particle filter is understood as meaning a particle filter in which the exhaust gas flowing through the particle filter does not have to flow through a wall of the particle filter.
  • a closed particulate filter in which a plurality of channels is formed, one part of which is open on the input side and closed on the output side, while another part is closed on the input side and open on the output side.
  • the exhaust gas flow is forced to flow through the porous wall of the particle filter in order to be able to move from an input side open channel to an output side open channel.
  • Open filters are also understood as bypass filters in which there is no filtering of the main flow, for example by a diesel particulate filter with alternately closed channels, but only a side stream.
  • An open particle feeder thus can not clog in the true sense.
  • the porous walls serving as filter surfaces are so laden with particles that filtering of particles no longer takes place, in this case the unfiltered exhaust gases can flow unhindered through the particle filter while a closed filter in which the filter surfaces are added , forms a very high back pressure which ultimately leads to the fact that no exhaust gas can flow through the particulate filter.
  • An open particle filter can thus also be understood as a barrier-free particle filter.
  • the essentially smooth layer can here be constructed, at least in partial areas, of a fluid that can be flowed through and, in particular, porous, while the at least partially corrugated layer is constructed, for example, of thin sheet metal or a thin sheet metal or a thin metal foil.
  • the corrugated layer may preferably have guide structures which bring about a deflection of the exhaust gas towards the filter areas.
  • the inventive method is advantageous because it is ensured even at low idle speeds, especially large-volume internal combustion engines, that the flow in the modules such a large Reynolds number when flowing through the particulate matter or that Nevertheless, an effective separation of the particles or conversion of the component takes place.
  • the exhaust gas is deflected as a function of at least one of the following variables: 4.1) a regeneration capability of the exhaust gas for a module and 4.2) a regeneration requirement of a module.
  • Regeneration of a particulate filter comprises, in particular, oxidation of the particles incorporated in the particulate filter. This can be done on the one hand by providing an oxidizing agent such as nitrogen dioxide, but alternatively or additionally, for example, additional home measures is possible to increase the temperature of the particulate filter above a threshold temperature from which oxidation of the particles preferably proceeds. If the exhaust gas now has a certain temperature which can lead to increased regeneration taking place as it flows through a module, then it can be said here that the exhaust gas is capable of being regenerated in accordance with 4.1).
  • a reactivity requirement 4.2) of a module indicates that the stored particle quantity has exceeded a limit above which regeneration of the module is advantageous. This can also be manifested in particular in the case of a particle filter in an increase in the pressure loss via this particle filter.
  • the exhaust gas flow is deflected in an idling load state such that on average substantially all the modules flow through an essentially identical summary exhaust gas flow.
  • a total exhaust gas flow here means the sum and / or the temporal integral of the exhaust gas flow, preferably the exhaust gas mass flow or the exhaust gas volumetric flow, over the flow time during which the respective module flows.
  • the summary exhaust gas flow thus preferably represents a mass when the exhaust gas mass flow is considered, or a volume when the exhaust gas volumetric flow is considered.
  • throughflow times of up to 5 minutes, up to 10 minutes or even one hour or more are possible and according to the invention.
  • the number of flow-through modules increases monotonically with at least one of the following variables: 6.1) exhaust gas temperature and 6.2) exhaust gas mass flow.
  • the dependence on the exhaust gas mass flow is advantageous, since otherwise, for example, only a flow-through module at higher load conditions, especially at full load, the flow of only one module for the effectiveness of the exhaust gas treatment can be disadvantageous.
  • Each of the modules comprises an open particulate filter, it is advantageous if the exhaust gas flows through all modules up to the full load state of the internal combustion engine. In particular, a regeneration of the corresponding particle filter can also take place during the full load condition.
  • an apparatus for conditioning an exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine comprising an exhaust pipe, which is connectable to the internal combustion engine and at least two modules for exhaust gas treatment, which can be connected to the Abgasleirung, wherein at least one at least one module associated Connecting means is formed, with which this module is connectable to the exhaust pipe, that at least a portion of the exhaust gas can flow through this module.
  • Each module in particular comprises a honeycomb body, which preferably comprises a corresponding catalytically active coating and / or is suitable for particle filtration.
  • a connection means is understood in particular to mean a component by means of which a connection through which the fluid can flow through to the module can be manufactured or separated.
  • the connecting means is preferably a correspondingly designed flap which, in the closed state, can close a flow-through opening towards the module and release it in the opened state.
  • the different connection means can be designed such that in each case only part of the exhaust gas can flow through the associated module or even the entire exhaust gas through the associated module. Especially with the latter possibility, different connecting means can cooperate.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de traiter des gaz d'échappement (6) de moteur à combustion interne (19), selon lequel au moins deux modules (3, 4, 5, 17) sont mis au point pour traiter les gaz d'échappement. L'invention vise à ce qu'un flux de gaz d'échappement puisse être dévié, au moins en partie en fonction d'un état de charge du moteur à combustion interne (19), de sorte qu'un ou plusieurs modules (3, 4, 5 17) soient parcourus au moins par des parties des gaz d'échappement (6). Le procédé selon l'invention et le dispositif (1) selon l'invention permet de concevoir et d'exploiter de manière avantageuse également des systèmes de gaz d'échappement de moteurs à combustion interne (19) à grand volume, de sorte à permettre une conversion et un traitement des gaz d'échappement (6) dans des modules individuels (5, 3, 4, 17), également en marche à vide et principalement dans le cas de débits massiques de gaz d'échappement très réduits. Les modules individuels (3, 4, 5, 17) peuvent être adaptés à différents points de charge du moteur à combustion interne (19).
