Definitions

  • This laser ignition comprises an ignition laser, which projects into the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine.
  • This ignition laser is connected via a light guide with a pump light source.
  • combustion chamber window is present, which is transmissive to the laser pulses generated in the ignition laser.
  • the laser wavelength is between 500 nm and 1500 nm, preferably between 900 nm and 1100 nm.
  • This combustion chamber window must be sealingly received in a housing of the ignition laser. In this case, high demands are placed on the seal between the combustion chamber window and the housing, because during operation, for example, in an internal combustion engine, surface temperatures of more than 600 ° C. can occur at the combustion chamber window. In addition, intermittent pressure loads of more than 250 bar are added. If a firing laser is used to ignite a gas turbine, although lower pressures prevail in the combustion chamber of the gas turbine, but the surface of the combustion chamber window can reach temperatures of up to 1,000 ° C.
  • the combustion chamber window In order for the laser ignition to work without interference, the combustion chamber window must be permeable to the laser beams over the entire service life of the internal combustion engine. However, deposits may be deposited on the combustion chamber window during operation, so that the required optical transparency of the combustion chamber window is lost. To prevent these deposits, the ignition laser must be designed so that the operating temperature at the combustion chamber facing surface of the combustion chamber window is high enough to burn off deposits, especially organic type, or oxidize.
  • the surface temperature of the combustion chamber window must not be so high that it causes spontaneous combustion of the fuel-air mixture at the

  • Temperature range can not be met, a rapid heating of the ignition laser or the combustion chamber window is desired. At the same time, the heat from the ignition laser must be sufficiently dissipated in stable operation of the internal combustion engine to avoid over-temperatures.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an ignition laser, in particular a rapid heating of the ignition laser or the associated combustion chamber window to the required temperature of 400 0 C, so as quickly as possible after the cold start of the engine, the burning temperature for organic coatings is achieved and thus this Coverings can not be permanently deposited on the combustion chamber window.
  • This object is achieved in a generic ignition laser in that means for influencing the heat conduction provided, the one Allow adjustment of the heat transfer from the combustion chamber via the housing of the ignition laser to the combustion chamber window, so that a rapid heating of the combustion chamber window is achieved for all applications.

  • External thread ends at a distance from the combustion chamber facing the end of the ignition laser. Namely, if the external thread, which usually serves to screw the ignition laser in the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine, not to the end of the ignition laser, then the heat dissipation from the combustion chamber facing the end of the ignition laser is reduced, thus accelerating the heating of the ignition laser.
  • This intermediate element is used to reduce the heat dissipation from the combustion chamber window and thereby accelerate the heating of the combustion chamber window or to increase the stationary surface temperature of the combustion chamber window.
  • the intermediate elements may be formed as an annular disc and be provided in the axial direction in front of or behind on one or both sides of the combustion chamber window between the housing and the combustion chamber window. For example, if only one intermediate element is provided and this intermediate element on the contact surface facing away from the combustion chamber between the
  • Combustor window and the housing is arranged, thereby reducing the dissipation of heat from the combustion chamber window into the base of the housing and as a result accelerates the heating.
  • combustion chamber window consists of two different materials.
  • the combustion chamber window must be transparent or transmissive for light with the
  • a particularly suitable material for focusing the laser pulse is crystalline sapphire, which, however, has a relatively high thermal conductivity of about 40 W / mK at room temperature.
  • the combustion chamber window is thus formed according to the invention from a central region with optimal optical properties and a radially outer region with respect to the thermal conductivity optimized annular region.
  • Suitable materials for the second, outer region of the combustion chamber window are, for example, quartz glass, which has a thermal conductivity of only about 4 W / mK at room temperature, YAG, with a thermal conductivity of about 14
  • the surface temperature of the combustion chamber window can be set to the desired values and at the same time a very rapid heating of the combustion chamber window can be achieved at temperatures above 400 0 C.

Since the outer part 64 and inner part 62 can be connected to one another by a thread 68, the contact pressure with which the combustion chamber window 58 is clamped between the inner part 62 and the shoulder 66 of the outer part 64 can be adjusted by a corresponding tightening torque.

In principle, a large heat-transferring surface between heat-conducting ring 74 and the surrounding combustion air and the exhaust gases in the combustion chamber leads to increased heat transfer. A large mass or a large volume of politiciansleitrings leads to increased thermal inertia.
