Auch die konkrete Formulierung der Anwendung von Diesel und Benzin ist bekannt
Diese Systeme benötigen zwei Kraftstoffe, um die Verbrennung mit gewünschten Eigenschaften herzustellen. Bei allen diesen Ausführungen sind die Aufwendungen erheblich und es müssen stets zwei Kraftstoffe mitgeführt werden. Die bekannten Vorrichtungen und Verfahren führen nicht zu einer vollständigen Verbrennung des Kraftstoffes, weshalb Abgasreinigungsanlagen erforderlich sind.These systems require two fuels to produce combustion with the desired properties. The costs are considerable for all of these designs and two fuels must always be carried. The known devices and processes do not lead to complete combustion of the fuel, which is why exhaust gas purification systems are required.
Ziel der Erfindung ist es, die Kraftstoffverteilung und die Verteilungsdichte im Dieselprozess so zu homogenisieren und dadurch den Verbrennungsprozess so zu beeinflussen, dass der Kraftstoff möglichst vollständig verbrennt, kein oder wenig Ruß entsteht. Damit wird gleichzeitig der Kraftstoff besser in mechanische Energie umgesetzt.The aim of the invention is to homogenize the fuel distribution and distribution density in the diesel process and thereby influence the combustion process so that the fuel burns as completely as possible and little or no soot is produced. At the same time, the fuel is better converted into mechanical energy.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Einspritzdüse nach dem Hauptanspruch sowie das Verfahren nach dem Patentanspruch 8 gelöst; vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.This object is achieved by the injection nozzle according to the main claim and the method according to
Die Erfindung besteht aus einer Einspritzdüse und einer mit ihr unmittelbar oder mittelbar verbundenen Diffusionsvorrichtung zur Beladung des Kraftstoffes, üblicherweise Dieselkraftstoff mit Gas, vorzugsweise mit Luft oder Abgas sowie auch Luft und Abgas. Die Beladung des Kraftstoffes mit Gas erfolgt in der Diffusionsvorrichtung über Gasfilter, vorzugsweise Membranen aus Sintermetall (Sintermetallfilter) oder keramische Filter. Die Membran (semipermeable Membran) hat dabei eine Porengröße, die es ermöglicht das Gas durchzuleiten und den Kraftstoff im Ruhezustand zurückzuhalten. Im Arbeitszustand wird dem Gas ein höherer Druck als der Druck im Kraftstoff vorgegeben.The invention consists of an injection nozzle and a diffusion device connected directly or indirectly to it for loading the fuel, usually diesel fuel, with gas, preferably with air or exhaust gas, as well as air and exhaust gas. The fuel is loaded with gas in the diffusion device via gas filters, preferably membranes made of sintered metal (sintered metal filter) or ceramic filters. The membrane (semi-permeable membrane) has a pore size that allows the gas to pass through and the fuel to be retained in the idle state. In the working state, the gas is subjected to a higher pressure than the pressure in the fuel.
Der Strömungswiderstand der Membran ist abhängig von der Porengröße und Porenlänge. Bei den vorgenannten Kraftstoffen und Gas liegt nahezu ein rein viskoses Verhalten vor. Damit ist das Viskositätsverhältnis bestimmend für die Durchströmung der jeweiligen Komponenten. Unter gleichen Druckbedingungen ergibt sich ein Viskositätsverhältnis von Diesel zu Luft bei Normalbedingungen größer als 104. Unter diesen Bedingungen wird kein Diesel durch die Membran fließen.The flow resistance of the membrane depends on the pore size and pore length. The aforementioned fuels and gases exhibit almost purely viscous behavior. The viscosity ratio is therefore decisive for the flow through the respective components. Under the same pressure conditions, the viscosity ratio of diesel to air under normal conditions is greater than 10 4 . Under these conditions, no diesel will flow through the membrane.
Da das Viskositätsverhältnis von Dieselkraftstoff zu Luft sehr groß ist, kann über die semipermeable Wand dem Dieselkraftstoff Luft/Gas durch Diffusion zugeführt werden.Since the viscosity ratio of diesel fuel to air is very high, air/gas can be added to the diesel fuel by diffusion via the semi-permeable wall.
Die Parameter Permeationsfläche und -dicke, Gasdruck und Kraftstoffdruck werden so ausgelegt, dass die erforderliche Menge Gas durch Diffusion vom Kraftstoff aufgenommen wird.The parameters permeation area and thickness, gas pressure and fuel pressure are designed so that the required amount of gas is absorbed by the fuel by diffusion.
Das gelöste Gas führt nach dem Einspritzen des beladenen Dieselkraftstoffes dazu, dass nach der Druckentspannung im Verdichtungsraum die aus der Einspritzdüse austretenden Tröpfchen durch den tropfeninternen Gasdruck spontan zerplatzen, was zu einer sehr feinen und gleichmäßigen Verteilung des Kraftstoffes führt.After the injection of the loaded diesel fuel, the dissolved gas causes the droplets emerging from the injection nozzle to spontaneously burst due to the gas pressure within the droplet after the pressure in the compression chamber has been released, which leads to a very fine and even distribution of the fuel.
Bei der nachfolgenden Verbrennung entsteht dadurch eine homogene Temperaturverteilung, womit der Rußanteil bei der Verbrennung minimiert wird. Durch die homogene Verbrennung kann des Weiteren der Luftüberschuss bei der Verbrennung und durch Abgasrückführung die Entstehung von NOx verringert werden.This creates a homogeneous temperature distribution during the subsequent combustion, which minimizes the amount of soot during combustion. Homogeneous combustion also reduces the excess air during combustion and the formation of NOx through exhaust gas recirculation.
Die Diffusion des Gases in den Kraftstoff ist ein Oberflächen- und Zeitprozess, deshalb wird das Oberflächen-Volumen-Verhältnis des Kraftstoffes beim Durchströmen der Diffusionsvorrichtung möglichst groß gestaltet.The diffusion of the gas into the fuel is a surface and time process, therefore the surface-to-volume ratio of the fuel is designed to be as large as possible as it flows through the diffusion device.
Der erforderliche Gasdruck bestimmt sich aus dem Druckverlust für den Gasdurchtritt durch die Membran (viskoser Druckverlust) und dem erforderlichen und vorgegebenen Druck für die Diffusion des Gases (Diffusions-Druckgradient). Das Sättigungsvolumen für Gas ist in einem weiten Bereich proportional dem Diffusionsdruck (Daltonsches Gesetz). Je nach Gasbedarf im Kraftstoff wird der Überdruck zum Einspritzdruck gewählt.The required gas pressure is determined by the pressure loss for the gas to pass through the membrane (viscous pressure loss) and the required and specified pressure for the diffusion of the gas (diffusion pressure gradient). The saturation volume for gas is proportional to the diffusion pressure over a wide range (Dalton's law). The overpressure to the injection pressure is selected depending on the gas requirement in the fuel.
Die vorliegende Erfindung realisiert sich sowohl in der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung der Einspritzdüse, als auch im unabhängigen Verfahren zum Einspritzen von Kraftstoff, wobei dieses vorteilhaft auch als Verfahren zum Betreiben der erfindungsgemäßen Einspritzdüse realisiert sein kann. Analog zu den weiterbildenden Ausgestaltungen der Einspritzdüse gelten zugehörige Betriebsmodi und Betriebsweisen der Düse als das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren weiterbildend offenbart.The present invention is implemented both in the inventive design of the injection nozzle and in the independent method for injecting fuel, whereby this can advantageously also be implemented as a method for operating the inventive injection nozzle. Analogous to the further developments of the injection nozzle, associated operating modes and methods of operation of the nozzle are considered to be disclosed as a further development of the inventive method.
Eine das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren besonders elegant und wirksam weiterbildende Variante ergibt sich aus dem Einspritzen des beladenen Kraftstoffes in einen Verdichtungsraum bzw. Einspritzraum, der zumindest zum Zeitpunkt des Einspritzens ein Vakuum aufweist bzw. ausbildet. Die konkrete Realisierung eines derartigen Vakuums für den Einspritzraum ergibt sich aus der deutschen Gebrauchsmusterveröffentlichung

Wie aus
Die Versorgung der Düse mit Kraftstoff durch eine Diffusionsvorrichtung, in der Gas durch Diffusion zugeführt wird, kann auch dergestalt erfolgen, dass mehr als eine Diffusionsvorrichtung, in
In
Die mikroporöse Wand, im Beispiel aus gesintertem Edelstahl, CrNi-Stahl, hat je nach Dimensionierung und Betriebsbedingungen eine Porösität, welche die erforderlichen Gasbestandteile hindurchlässt, anderseits verhindert, dass der Kraftstoff, bevorzugt Dieselkraftstoff durch die mikroporöse Wand diffundiert. Durch den höheren Gasdruck gegenüber dem Kraftstoffdruck und die wesentlich höhere Viskosität des Kraftstoffes gegenüber den diffundierenden Gasen Luft bzw. Abgas ist dies ausgeschlossen.The microporous wall, in the example made of sintered stainless steel, CrNi steel, has, depending on the dimensions and operating conditions, a porosity that allows the necessary gas components to pass through, but on the other hand prevents the fuel, preferably diesel fuel, from diffusing through the microporous wall. This is impossible due to the higher gas pressure compared to the fuel pressure and the significantly higher viscosity of the fuel compared to the diffusing gases, air or exhaust gas.
Zur Erhöhung der Diffusion in den Kraftstoff kann auch, wie in
Um ein möglichst günstiges Verhältnis von Oberfläche zum Volumen des Kraftstoffes für die Diffusion herzustellen, wird die Dicke des strömenden Kraftstoffes klein gehalten, wobei sich der Druckverlust der Strömung erhöht. Allerdings ist die Geschwindigkeit der Strömung in der Diffusionsvorrichtung relativ gering, so dass die Strömungsdruckverluste klein sind. Zur Optimierung der Diffusion kann auch die mikroporöse Wand so gestaltet werden, dass durch eine gewählte Topographie beispielsweise bei gleichem Radius die Oberfläche größer wird, dadurch erreicht, dass die Oberfläche gewellt, verzahnt oder in anderer Weise die Oberfläche vergrößernd gestaltet wird.In order to achieve the best possible ratio of surface area to volume of the fuel for diffusion, the thickness of the flowing fuel is kept small, which increases the pressure loss of the flow. However, the speed of the flow in the diffusion device is relatively low, so that the flow pressure losses are small. To optimize diffusion, the microporous wall can also be designed in such a way that the surface area becomes larger due to a selected topography, for example with the same radius, achieved by making the surface corrugated, interlocked or in some other way increasing the surface area.
Die Ausführung der Diffusionsvorrichtung ist nicht an rohrförmige Geometrien gebunden, vielmehr können auch andere Querschnitte, wie zum Beispiel rechteckige Geometrien oder ellipsenförmige Querschnitte angewendet werden.The design of the diffusion device is not limited to tubular geometries, but other cross-sections, such as rectangular geometries or elliptical cross-sections, can also be used.
Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung ist Dieselkraftstoff eine bevorzugte Realisierungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Kraftstoffes, die Erfindung ist jedoch nicht hierauf beschränkt, vielmehr eignen sich im Rahmen der Erfindung jegliche erfindungsgemäß mit dem Gas beladbare Kraftstoffe, eingeschlossen Benzin- bzw. Ottokraftstoffe verschiedener Oktanzahlen, synthetische Kraftstoffe, Methanol, Ethanol, Biodiesel, Pflanzenöle und geeignete Mischungen von diesen.Within the scope of the present invention, diesel fuel is a preferred form of implementation of the fuel according to the invention, but the invention is not limited thereto; rather, any fuels that can be loaded with the gas according to the invention are suitable within the scope of the invention, including gasoline or petrol of various octane numbers, synthetic fuels, methanol, ethanol, biodiesel, vegetable oils and suitable mixtures of these.
Zwar ist das dem Kraftstoff durch Diffusion zugeführte Gas vorteilhaft Luft und/oder Abgas, das erfindungsgemäße Gas ist hierauf jedoch nicht beschränkt. Vielmehr sind auch nahezu beliebige andere Gase bzw. Gasgemische möglich, welche im Sinne der Erfindung in den Kraftstoff einbringbar sind und dann nach der Einspritzung in den Verdichtungsraum zum spontanen Zerplatzen der Tröpfchen führen, mit der erfindungsgemäßen vorteilhaften Wirkung auf die Kraftstoffverteilung und Tröpfchengröße. Beispielsweise kommen daher auch Wasserstoff, Alkohol, Methan, Ammoniak, Sauerstoff, Stickstoff, Kohlenstoffdioxid, verschiedene Edelgase, Propan, Butan, Biogas, allein, in Kombination oder in Kombination mit Luft und/oder Abgas zum Einsatz. Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn Gasgemische als Gas unterschiedlicher Zusammensetzung dem Kraftstoff zugeführt werden. Gerade auch die erfindungsgemäße Beladung von Kraftstoff mit Wasserstoff als Gas böte dann einen vorteilhaften Weg, den ansonsten nur schwer förderfähigen und handhabbaren Wasserstoff in eleganter Weise in den Kraftstoff nach dem Gedanken eines Trägermaterials einzubringen. Damit trägt nicht nur der Wasserstoff selbst energetisch zur Kraftstoffverbrennung bei, auch entsteht durch den Beitrag des Wasserstoffs zur Verbrennungsenergie keinerlei zusätzliches CO2.Although the gas supplied to the fuel by diffusion is advantageously air and/or exhaust gas, the gas according to the invention is not limited to this. Rather, almost any other gases or gas mixtures are also possible, which can be introduced into the fuel in accordance with the invention and then lead to the spontaneous bursting of the droplets after injection into the compression chamber, with the advantageous effect according to the invention on the fuel distribution and droplet size. For example, hydrogen, alcohol, methane, ammonia, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, various noble gases, propane, butane, biogas are therefore also used, alone, in combination or in combination with air and/or exhaust gas. It is advantageous if gas mixtures of different compositions are supplied to the fuel as gas. The loading of fuel with hydrogen as gas according to the invention would then offer an advantageous way of elegantly introducing hydrogen, which is otherwise difficult to convey and handle, into the fuel according to the idea of a carrier material. This means that not only does the hydrogen itself contribute energetically to fuel combustion, but the hydrogen’s contribution to combustion energy also does not produce any additional CO2 .
