- the pressure force in the plumbing depends on the pressure force of the fuel injection pump and the discharge volume of the burner nozzle, however, the pressure force in the plumbing does not fluctuate greatly according to the correlation in which the quantity of fuel decreases if the quantity of water increases. Thus, the phenomenon described in patent document 1 rarely occurs.
- the second water emulsion fueling apparatus In the second water emulsion fueling apparatus, an exclusive emulsion pump and a reducing valve are necessary. And, when the fuel which mixed water by the mixer is sent to the reducing valve, the reducing valve expands frictionally, is lacking in intercalary lubricating properties, so there is a possibility that adjustment of the pressure force becomes impossible (it breaks down). Also, while the second water emulsion fueling apparatus is basically applicable to a large-capacity burner apparatus (ship, large convertor), it is not at all suitable for a common burner apparatus.

- the apparatus becomes simple, thus the long-term stable operation of the combustion system can be secured.
- only water is involved in the adjustment of the water content depending on classification and the ability of the burner apparatus, and thus, the apparatus becomes simple, and a compact and low cost structure can be accomplished. Even more particularly, it can resolve the problem of miss-firing and trouble with the fuel injection pump such as occur with conventional equipment.
- the ingredients of the liquid fuel may not correspond to the requirements for an individual water emulsion apparatus.

- nozzle portion 97 is almost similar to the constitution of the second nozzle portion 32 of the first embodiment, for example, a standard straight nozzle (orifice diameter: CP small hole diameter nozzle 0.3mm) is adopted.
- the fuel return line 95 is not connected to the service tank like the fueling system in the conventional ship, but the fuel return line 95 is connected to the suction side (upstream) of the booster pump 91. Therefore, water in the water emulsion fuel does not becomes to the steam in the service tank, and it is prevented that the steam is collected in the service tank. Also, for example, the fuel collected in the fuel tank 16 for ship engine use is often heavy oil (e.g., C heavy oil).
- C heavy oil e.g., C heavy oil
- the pressure force of the fuel which is pressurized with the booster pump 91, and passes the supply line 23 is for example 0.5MPa, this pressure force is preferable within 5MPa ⁇ 0.5MPa.
- the pressure force of the fuel is made about 200MPa by the fuel injection pump 93.
- the common pressure force of the fuel injection pump 93 is in the range of 200MPa ⁇ 5MPa, the pressure force of the fuel to pressurize by the fuel injection 93 of the present embodiment can be set appropriately in this range. From the booster pump 91 between to the fuel injection pump 93, that is, the supply line 23 is heated in the range of 80°C ⁇ 150°C. However, water particles in the water emulsion fuel do not evaporate by pressure force given by the booster pump 91.
- the high pressure pump apparatus 14 has the water reservoir 33 to collect water in inside, the high pressure pump 34 (pump) which receives water from the water reservoir 33 and send the pressurized water to the nozzle portion 97, the water feed line 35 which connects the second nozzle portion 32 and the high pressure pump 34, the return circuit 36 which returns the water from the water feed line 35 to the water reservoir 33, the flow quantity adjustment valve 37 provided in the middle of return circuit 36, the second pressure gauge which is not illustrated provided in the middle of water feed line 35, the second flow meter 38 provided in the middle of water feed line 35.
- the pressure force of the water pressurized with the high pressure pump 34 is 1.5MPa, This pressure force can be set higher than the pressure force of the fuel pressurized with the booster pump 91 appropriately 5MPa ⁇ 10MPa.
- the third electromagnetic valve 41 is intervened between the chamber 25 and the high pressure pump apparatus 14.
- the fuel in the fuel tank 16 is sent to the booster pump 91, the booster pump 91 pressurizes the fuel, the flow quantity control valve 92 regulates the flow quantity of the fuel, the fuel is supplied to the fuel injection pump 93 through the supply line 23.
- pressurized water is jetted into the fuel from the nozzle portion 97. The water becomes fine particles by the discharge speed (or momentum) of the jetted water and the anti-power of the main liquid fuel, at the same time, the fine particles of the water are mixture to disperse in fuel equally.
- the water emulsion fuel generated as above is sent to the fuel injection pump 93, and is jetted into the combustion chamber of the ship engine 94 by the injection nozzle which is not illustrated, and the water emulsion fuel is burnt. If the water emulsion fuel is used with ship engine 94, discharge such as Nox or the soot is reduced. The water emulsion fuel which was not used in the fuel injection pump 93 is returned to the suction side (upstream) of the booster pump 91 through the fuel return line 95.
- the combustion system 11 comprises:
- the water emulsion fuel is generated by adding high-pressure water to the pressurized fuel, in which the pressure of the water is higher than the pressure of the fuel, this high-pressure state can be maintained until the water emulsion fuel is used at the fuel spout pump 93.
- the pressure force of the fuel between the booster pump 91 and the fuel injection pump 93 is about in a range of 5MPa ⁇ 1.0MPa.
- the supply line 23 between the booster pump 91 and the fuel injection pump 93the is heated in the range of 80°C ⁇ 150°C.
- water particles in the water emulsion fuel do not evaporate by pressure force in the range.
- the water emulsion fuel is generated right before the use at the fuel injection pump 93, there is not a time for water in the water emulsion fue to be cohesion.
- the water emulsion fuel can prevent from producing above malfunction.
- a mixer and a pump for exclusive use of the water emulsion fuel which are necessary conventionally become unnecessary, equipment component is simplified, and cost can be reduced. And, a large modification is not required to the existing facilities of the ship. Also, because the water emulsion fuel can be generated without using an expensive surfactant, the running cost of the apparatus can be reduced.
- the joint portion is positioned to the vicinities of the injection nozzle portion 93, specifically, the joint portion 25 is positioned where close to the end of the injection nozzle portion 93 in a range of one-third (more preferably 10% ⁇ 20%) of the full length of the supply line 23.
- N0x quantity can be reduced to the level that is almost a regulation level of 2016 by using emulsion fuel together in EGR apparatus. Because the apparatus structure is only to inject water, it is downsized, and the setting space is around 0.5m2, also pitch difference and distance with the ship engine 94 do not become disadvantageous, too. There is a superiority that it can construct the system of the present invention in a postscript even if in a narrow engine room or on a deck portion of the ship.
