Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de réchauffage de gaz de carter dans un moteur de véhicule automobile. L'invention a également pour objet une chambre de décantation contenue dans le circuit des gaz de carter d'un moteur de véhicule automobile.The present invention relates to a method and a device for heating crankcase gas in a motor vehicle engine. The invention also relates to a settling chamber contained in the crankcase circuit of a motor vehicle engine.
L'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse dans le domaine de l'industrie automobile.The invention finds a particularly advantageous application in the field of the automotive industry.
Dans un moteur à combustion interne, les gaz de carter, appelés aussi gaz de « blow-by », proviennent de différentes sources :
- ■ fuite au niveau des segments, depuis la chambre de combustion vers les volumes sous piston,
- ■ fuite au niveau des paliers du ou des turbo-compresseurs, depuis les corps de turbine et de compresseur vers le carter moteur par le retour d'huile,
- ■ fuite par les joints de queue de soupape, depuis les tubulures d'admission et d'échappement vers la culasse,
- ■ fuite des gaz de pompe à huile, depuis le circuit de freinage vers la culasse.
- ■ leakage at the segments, from the combustion chamber to the piston volumes,
- ■ leakage at the bearings of the turbo-compressor (s), from the turbine and compressor bodies to the crankcase by the oil return,
- ■ leakage through the valve stem seals from the intake and exhaust manifolds to the cylinder head,
- ■ oil pump gas leakage, from the braking circuit to the cylinder head.
Ces gaz créés dans le carter du moteur doivent être évacués pour éviter les risques de fuite vers l'extérieur et le rejet dans l'atmosphère d'hydrocarbures polluants, ainsi que pour maintenir le bas du carter en dépression et éviter un incendie du moteur.These gases created in the crankcase of the engine must be evacuated to avoid the risks of escape to the outside and the discharge into the atmosphere of polluting hydrocarbons, as well as to keep the bottom of the crankcase in depression and to avoid a fire of the engine.
C'est pourquoi il est prévu dans les moteurs thermiques d'évacuer ces gaz de carter par des circuits de récupération en boucle fermée fonctionnant par aspiration vers l'admission des gaz moteur afin d'être consommés dans la chambre de combustion.This is why it is provided in the heat engines to evacuate these crankcase gases by closed loop recovery circuits operating by suction to the intake of the engine gases for consumption in the combustion chamber.
Cependant, avant d'être brûlés, ils doivent être débarrassés de l'huile qu'ils contiennent en passant dans une chambre de décantation, ceci pour des raisons d'encrassement et de pollution.
- ■ Les gaz de carter sont composés :
- ■ de gaz de combustion, essentiellement de l'eau, du dioxyde de carbone et du diazote,
- ■ des gaz imbrûlés : air, carburant et diazote,
- ■ d'huile.
- ■ Crankcase gases are composed of:
- ■ flue gas, mainly water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen,
- ■ unburned gases: air, fuel and nitrogen,
- ■ oil.
Lors du fonctionnement du moteur dans des conditions climatiques froides, les gaz de « blow-by » se refroidissent et certains composés initialement gazeux peuvent se condenser en liquide, voire même se solidifier.During operation of the engine under cold climatic conditions, blow-by gases cool and some initially gaseous compounds can condense into liquid, or even solidify.
En particulier, il peut se former un amalgame, c'est-à-dire une émulsion obtenue par agitation d'un mélange d'eau et d'huile en phase liquide.In particular, an amalgam may be formed, that is to say an emulsion obtained by stirring a mixture of water and oil in the liquid phase.
De même, dans des conditions plus sévères, la température des gaz de carter peut tomber au-dessous de 0°C, de sorte à geler l'eau contenue dans ces gaz.Similarly, under more severe conditions, the temperature of the crankcase gases can fall below 0 ° C, so as to freeze the water contained in these gases.
Dans tous les cas, la formation d'un bouchon de glace et/ou d'amalgame a pour conséquence une montée en pression du carter à l'origine de projections d'huile sous le capot et de casse moteur par vidange de l'huile du carter par la jauge à huile ou par les joints. Dans certains cas, un risque d'incendie du véhicule n'est pas exclu.In any case, the formation of a plug of ice and / or amalgam causes a rise in pressure of the crankcase causing oil splashes under the hood and engine breakage by oil draining of the housing by the oil dipstick or by the seals. In some cases, a fire hazard of the vehicle is not excluded.
Pour remédier à ces difficultés, il est généralement proposer d'implanter dans les moteurs des dispositifs de réchauffage électrique des tuyaux de circulation des gaz de « blow-by ». Ces dispositifs sont constitués le plus souvent d'une résistance sous tension venant localement réchauffer la surface des tuyaux.To remedy these difficulties, it is generally proposed to implement in the motors electric heating devices blow-by gas circulation pipes. These devices are most often made of a resistor under tension coming locally to heat the surface of the pipes.
Ces solutions sont le plus souvent coûteuses énergétiquement, du fait de la consommation d'énergie électrique que l'alternateur doit fournir, et économiquement, car elles se répercutent sur le prix de revient du moteur. De plus, apparaissent également des difficultés d'implantation liées à l'encombrement des tuyaux chauffants et au faisceau électrique nécessaire pour alimenter les résistances de réchauffage.These solutions are most often expensive energy, because of the consumption of electrical energy that the alternator must provide, and economically, because they affect the cost of the engine. In addition, there also arise implementation difficulties related to the size of the heating pipes and the electrical harness necessary to supply the heating resistors.
Aussi, un but de l'invention est de proposer un procédé et un dispositif de réchauffage des gaz de « blow-by » qui permettent d'éviter une consommation d'énergie supplémentaire, de limiter le surcoût lié au réchauffage et de ne pas augmenter l'encombrement moteur.Also, an object of the invention is to provide a method and a device for heating "blow-by" gases which make it possible to avoid additional energy consumption, to limit the additional cost of reheating and not to increase engine clutter.
Ce but est atteint, conformément à l'invention, grâce à un procédé de réchauffage de gaz de carter dans un moteur de véhicule automobile, lesdits gaz étant mis en circulation dans un circuit de récupération traversant une chambre de décantation d'huile contenue dans lesdits gaz de carter, remarquable en ce que ledit procédé consiste à maintenir dans ladite chambre de décantation une température supérieure à une température donnée.This object is achieved, in accordance with the invention, by a method of heating crankcase gas in a motor vehicle engine, said gases being circulated in a recovery circuit passing through an oil settling chamber contained in said crankcase gas, remarkable in that said method consists in maintaining in said settling chamber a temperature above a given temperature.
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux, la température de la chambre de décantation est maintenue supérieure à ladite température donnée par échange thermique entre ladite chambre de décantation et un fluide caloporteur du moteur.According to an advantageous embodiment, the temperature of the settling chamber is maintained higher than said temperature given by heat exchange between said settling chamber and a heat transfer fluid of the engine.
L'invention prévoit en particulier que ledit échange thermique est obtenu par circulation dudit liquide caloporteur sur au moins une paroi de la chambre de décantation.The invention provides in particular that said heat exchange is obtained by circulating said heat transfer liquid on at least one wall of the settling chamber.
Il est également prévu par l'invention que ledit liquide caloporteur est prélevé en sortie d'un échangeur de chaleur avec l'huile du circuit de lubrification du moteur.It is also provided by the invention that said coolant liquid is taken at the outlet of a heat exchanger with the engine lubricating circuit oil.
De même, un dispositif de réchauffage de gaz de carter dans un moteur de véhicule automobile, un circuit de récupération desdits gaz traversant une chambre de décantation d'huile contenue dans lesdits gaz de carter, est notamment remarquable en ce que ledit dispositif comprend des moyens pour maintenir la température de ladite chambre de décantation supérieure à une température donnée.Likewise, a device for heating crankcase gas in a motor vehicle engine, a circuit for recovering said gases passing through an oil settling chamber contained in said crankcase gases, is notably remarkable in that said device comprises means to maintain the temperature of said upper settling chamber at a given temperature.
Selon un mode de réalisation, lesdits moyens sont aptes à créer un échange thermique entre ladite chambre de décantation et un fluide caloporteur du moteur.According to one embodiment, said means are capable of creating a heat exchange between said settling chamber and a heat transfer fluid of the engine.
Avantageusement, lesdits moyens comprennent au moins une double paroi aménagée sur la chambre de décantation et destinée à réaliser ledit échange thermique par circulation du fluide caloporteur à l'intérieur de ladite double paroi.Advantageously, said means comprise at least one double wall arranged on the settling chamber and intended to achieve said heat exchange by circulation of the heat transfer fluid inside said double wall.
Selon l'invention, la double paroi est munie d'un orifice d'entrée du fluide caloporteur en communication avec un échangeur de chaleur entre ledit fluide caloporteur et l'huile du circuit de lubrification du moteur.According to the invention, the double wall is provided with a heat transfer fluid inlet orifice in communication with a heat exchanger between said heat transfer fluid and the oil of the engine lubrication circuit.
L'invention concerne en outre une chambre de décantation d'huile contenue dans le circuit des gaz de carter d'un moteur de véhicule automobile, remarquable en ce que ladite chambre de décantation comprend une double paroi destinée à la circulation d'un fluide caloporteur du moteur.The invention further relates to an oil settling chamber contained in the crankcase circuit of a motor vehicle engine, characterized in that said settling chamber comprises a double wall for the circulation of a coolant of the motor.
Selon l'invention, la double paroi est munie d'un orifice d'entrée du fluide de refroidissement destinée à communiquer avec un échangeur de chaleur entre ledit fluide caloporteur et l'huile du circuit de lubrification du moteur.According to the invention, the double wall is provided with a coolant inlet for communicating with a heat exchanger between said heat transfer fluid and the engine lubrication circuit oil.
Ainsi, on comprend que l'invention a pour effet d'éviter la formation de bouchons de glace ou d'amalgame dus au refroidissement des gaz de « blow-by » en empêchant qu'un tel refroidissement ne se produise, voire même en favorisant leur réchauffement.Thus, it is understood that the invention has the effect of avoiding the formation of ice plugs or amalgam due to the cooling of "blow-by" gases by preventing such cooling from occurring, or even favoring their warming.
L'invention permet donc d'utiliser le circuit de fluide caloporteur du moteur, eau glycolée du circuit de refroidissement par exemple, et en particulier la chaleur qu'il véhicule, afin de chauffer les parois de la chambre de décantation de l'huile. Ainsi, les échanges thermiques tendant à refroidir les gaz de carter et à créer les difficultés liées au gel de « blow-by » et d'amalgame, sont inversés. En effet, en réalisant une chambre de décantation à double paroi et en introduisant une circulation d'eau chaude entre les deux parois, les problèmes de gel et d'amalgame sont minimisés, voire supprimés en fonction des applications.The invention therefore makes it possible to use the heat-transfer fluid circuit of the engine, eg brine, of the cooling circuit, and in particular the heat it conveys, in order to heat the walls of the oil settling chamber. Thus, the heat exchange tending to cool the crankcase gases and to create the difficulties related to freeze "blow-by" and amalgam, are reversed. Indeed, by producing a double-walled settling chamber and introducing a hot water circulation between the two walls, the problems of gel and amalgam are minimized or even eliminated depending on the applications.
Les avantages de l'invention sont les suivants :
- ■ économie d'énergie en utilisant une source d'énergie disponible. En effet, l'eau du circuit de refroidissement est chauffée par la combustion dans le moteur. Cette énergie est ensuite perdue au travers du radiateur. Il s'agit donc d'utiliser une partie de cette énergie perdue pour éviter de refroidir les gaz de « blow-by » et leur permettre de s'échauffer plus rapidement,
- ■ déduction du prix de revient du moteur du coût des réchauffeurs électriques. En effet, le surcoût de développement et d'achat de la chambre de décantation reste bien inférieur à celui des réchauffeurs.
- ■ réduction de l'encombrement moteur. En effet, l'invention permet d'éviter l'installation d'un faisceau électrique et d'un connecteur encombrants.
- ■ temps de réponse très rapide.
- ■ saving energy using an available energy source. Indeed, the water of the cooling circuit is heated by combustion in the engine. This energy is then lost through the radiator. It is therefore a question of using part of this lost energy to avoid cooling the "blow-by" gases and allowing them to warm up more quickly,
- ■ deduction of the cost price of the motor from the cost of the electric heaters. Indeed, the additional cost of development and purchase of the settling chamber remains well below that of the heaters.
- ■ reduction of engine space. Indeed, the invention avoids the installation of a wiring harness and a bulky connector.
- ■ very fast response time.

Sur la
Ces gaz circulent par aspiration entre le bas du carter moteur et la chambre de combustion le long d'un circuit de récupération traversant une chambre 210 de décantation de l'huile contenue dans les gaz de « blow-by ».These gases circulate by suction between the bottom of the crankcase and the combustion chamber along a recovery circuit passing through a
La chambre 210 de décantation a pour but de décanter les gaz de carter afin de les séparer de l'huile dont ils sont chargés. Il s'agit en général d'un décanteur type chicane qui arrête les gouttes d'huile et les retourne au bac 30 à huile grâce à un tuyau 215 de retour d'huile du décanteur 210 vers le bac 30 à huile.The
Comme cela a été expliqué plus haut, il peut arriver que dans des conditions climatiques froides, l'eau et l'huile des gaz de « blow-by » créent des bouchons de glace et/ou d'amalgame, avec toutes les conséquences dommageables que cela entraîne pour le moteur en termes de casse ou d'incendie.As explained above, it can happen that under cold climatic conditions, water and oil blow-by gases create ice caps and / or amalgam, with all the damaging consequences that entails for the engine in terms of breakage or fire.
Pour éviter que des bouchons de glace ne se forment, dus au refroidissement des gaz de carter à travers le circuit de récupération, il est proposé de réchauffer les gaz au moyen du dispositif de réchauffage montré sur la
Il s'agit de réchauffer au moins partiellement la surface extérieure de la chambre 210 de décantation de manière à maintenir sa température intérieure supérieure à une température donnée, de 0°C par exemple. Les gaz de « blow-by » traversent ainsi, entre une entrée 211 et une sortie 212, un espace chaud à l'intérieur du décanteur 210 qui les protège des températures éventuellement très froides que l'on peut rencontrer à l'extérieur, notamment dans des zones exposées à l'aération d'air froid sous le capot.This is to at least partially heat the outer surface of the
En pratique, le réchauffage recherché est obtenu en équipant la chambre 210 de décantation d'une double paroi 216, comme l'indique la
Dans le mode de réalisation de la
Au passage dans l'échangeur 230, l'eau du circuit de refroidissement reçoit des calories de l'huile moteur, pénètre dans le décanteur 210 par l'orifice 213 d'entrée, circule dans la double paroi 216 qu'elle maintient à une température suffisante, ressort du décanteur 20 par l'orifice 214 de sortie et poursuit son trajet pour refroidir la culasse 10.At the passage in the
La double paroi 216 peut couvrir toutes les faces de la chambre 210 de décantation ou seulement certaines d'entre elles et, au moins, celle la plus exposée à l'aération froide sous le capot.The
