Definitions
- the invention relates to a plasma generator spark plug, used in particular for igniting internal combustion engines by electric spark.
- FR2859830 FR2859569 , FR2859831 relate to such a spark multi-spark incorporating a series resonator.
- the single coil winding of the winding ensures a high quality coefficient which is the ratio between the energy stored in the structure and the ohmic and dielectric losses. All the energy is stored in magnetic form and transferred to the essentially capacitive part. Furthermore, the low end portion of the coil surrounds the high end portion of the central electrode. This Electromagnetic overlap zone induces eddy currents in the central electrode which have the effect of creating additional resistance and thus reducing the overvoltage coefficient of the winding-plug assembly.
- the invention aims at reducing the electromagnetic energy dissipation induced by the eddy currents in the central electrode so as to optimize the properties of the spark plug, in particular a high overvoltage coefficient.
- the invention proposes a candle of the type mentioned above, characterized in that the high end portion of the central electrode comprises a coating of material which has an electrical conductivity greater than that of the material of the central electrode and which has no ferromagnetic properties.
- the thickness of the coating is at least equal to the initial skin thickness of the central electrode.
- the axial height of the coating is at least equal to the height of the high end portion of the central electrode.
- the figure 1 is a schematic sectional view along the Z axis of a radiofrequency plasma candle according to the state of the art.
- the figure 2 is a schematic sectional view along the Z axis of a portion of a radiofrequency plasma candle having a low end portion of the coil and a high end portion of the central electrode according to the state of the technical.
- the figure 3 represents a sectional view of a central electrode according to the invention.
- a radiofrequency plasma candle 1 of substantially cylindrical general shape Z axis mainly comprises a substantially capacitive bottom portion C and a substantially inductive upper part I, the parts C and I being substantially elongated in shape, connected in series.
- the substantially capacitive portion C comprises, in particular, a base 2 intended to be connected to the ground and surrounding a central electrode 3, substantially cylindrical, axis Z, acting as a high voltage electrode.
- An electrically insulating block, called “insulator” 4 is placed between the base 2 and the central electrode 3.
- the base 2 has, on the outer face of its lower part. the closest to the cylinder head of the internal combustion engine equipped with the spark plug 1, a form suitable for the introduction, maintenance and tightening of the spark plug 1 on the cylinder head (for example and without limitation, as shown on the figure 1 : a thread).
- the essentially inductive part I of the spark plug 1 has from inside to outside: a central mandrel 8, a winding 5, an insulator 7, an outer envelope 6.
- the central mandrel 8 is generally cylindrical in shape with a circular section whose axis is substantially coincident with the Z axis of the candle 1. It is made of insulating and non-magnetic material.
- the winding 5 is of cylindrical general shape with circular section. It is composed of a wire of diameter D wound and forming contiguous turns 51 surrounding the central mandrel 8 from a first turn 51a to a last turn 51b, which constitute the two end turns 51a, 51b of the winding 5.
- the first turn 51a is connected to the connector 12 and the last turn 51b is connected by appropriate means 14 to an inner end of the central electrode 3.
- a low end portion 57 of the coil 5 surrounds a high end portion 31 of the central electrode 3 which is inserted into the mandrel 8.
- the insulator 7 surrounding the coil 5 is of generally cylindrical shape. It can be chosen in different materials such as silicone.
- the outer casing 6 is of generally cylindrical shape. It is connected to a mass and surrounds the winding 5.
- the envelope 6 has an electromagnetic shielding function.
- the envelope 6 may be chosen from a high-conductivity non-ferrous material such as copper.
- the central electrode 3 comprises a coating 9.
- the coating 9 is located axially on the upper end portion 31 of the central electrode 3. This coating 9 may be deposited for example by electrolysis.
- the coating is characterized by an electrical conductivity greater than that of the material of the central electrode 3 and does not exhibit ferromagnetic properties.
- the central electrode 3 may be chosen from nickel whose conductivity is 14.3 * 10 6 S / m (Siemens / meter) and the coating 9 may be chosen from silver whose electrical conductivity is 63 * 10 6 S / m.
- the height H is at least equal to the height of the high end portion 31 of the central electrode 3.
- the low end portion 57 of the coil 5 surrounding the high end portion 31 of the central electrode 3 is called the electromagnetic overlap zone A.
- the latter A induces eddy currents in the central electrode 3.
- the losses by Foucault current is proportional to the square of the frequency.
- the skin thickness decreases in proportion to the square root of the permeability, frequency, electrical conductivity and size of the room. The thicker the piece in the plane perpendicular to the magnetic field than the skin thickness, the higher the induced currents will be.
- an embodiment of the invention provides a coating 9 which replaces this skin thickness.
- This coating 9 makes it possible to reduce the eddy currents and the skin thickness. In this way, the resistance of the central electrode 3 is decreased. The overvoltage coefficient is therefore increased and consequently the performance of the candle is improved.
