Description

SPECIFICATION Fluid heater This invention relates to a heater for an oxygen containing gaseous fluid of the kind intended for use with a turbo super-charged compression ignition engine, the heater being operative under conditions of low engine speed and/or low load to effect an increase in the temperature of, or the pressure of, the air supplied to the engine.
It is well known with super-charged compression ignition engines to reduce the natural compression ratio of the engine to ensure that the pressures attained in the cylinders of the engine when the engine is operating at full power do not exceed a safe value. With some engines using turbo super-chargers it is found that the engine does not operate satisfactorily at low speeds and low loads because the energy in the exhaust gas is insufficient to drive the turbo super-charger and as a result the thermodynamic state of the air in the combustion spaces of the engine at the end of the compression stroke is not such as to cause reliable ignition of the fuel delivered to the combustion spaces.
It is known to provide a heater for the air which flows from the turbo super-charger to the engine and it is also known to provide a heater which has the effect of increasing the temperature of the exhaust gases supplied to the turbo super-charger. When in operation, the heaters have the effect of causing an increase in the thermodynamic state of the compressed air in the combustion chambers in the one example by a direct increase in the temperature. In the other example the turbo super-charger is made to operate in a more effective manner.
One form of heater which heats the air flowing to the engine is shown in the specification of French Application No. 7627574.
This form of heater has a complex pump and control valve assembly which are provided for the purpose of supplying the fuel to the burner and the rate of fuel supply is determined by the speed of the motor driving the pump. A form of speed control is therefore required for this motor.
The complexity and expense of the heater shown in the aforesaid specification was justified for the particular application. However, for commercial applications it is necessary to provide a heater of reduced cost and complexity and it is the object of the present invention to provide an oxygen containing gaseous fluid heater in a simple and convenient form.
According to the invention a heater for an oxygen containing gaseous fluid of the kind specified comprises, a combustion chamber for location in use in the stream of oxygen containing gaseous fluid, an ultrasonic atomiser having a surface located within the com bustion chamber, means for feeding fuel to said surface and means for igniting the fuel atomised by the ultrasonic vibration of said surface.
An example of an oxygen containing gase ous fluid heater in accordance with the inven tion will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 is a diagrammatic view of the system and Figure 2 is a cross section to an enlarged scale of part of the heater seen in Fig. 1.
Referring to Fig. 1 of the drawings, a compression ignition engine 10 has an air inlet which is connected to the outlet of the compressor 11 of a turbo super-charger by way of a duct 1 2. The turbo super-charger includes a turbine (not shown) which is driven by exhaust gases leaving the engine 10 and fuel is supplied to the combustion spaces of the engine 10 by way of a fuel injection pump in known manner.
The natural compression ratio of the engine 10 is reduced in view of the fact that the engine is provided with a turbo super-charger and in order to heat the air flowing between the compressor of the turbo super-charger and the engine, a combustion chamber generally indicated at 1 3 is located within the duct 1 2.
The combustion chamber 1 3 is of generally cylindrical construction comprising in the par ticular example, inner and outer cylindrical walls 14, 15 between which is defined an annular space. The combustion chamber also includes an end wall at its downstream end.
The end wall closes the aforesaid annular space but it is apertured in the zone which closes the end of the inner wall. Adjacent its upstream end the inner cylindrical wall is provided with apertures 1 6 through which air can enter the combustion zone defined within the inner wall. Moreover, the aforesaid annu lar space at its downstream end communi cates with the aforesaid combustion zone through a plurality of apertures 17. The com bustion chamber is supported by three legs 1 8 only one of which is shown which are secured to the wall of the duct. The legs 1 8 are hollow and are provided with apertures 1 9 which face in a downstream direction of the flow of air through the duct.In addition the interiors of the legs 1 4 communicate with the aforesaid combustion zone adjacent the up stream end thereof.
At the upstream end of the inner cylii 4-cal wall 1 4 there is mounted an air swirler asst;rn- bly 20 (Fig. 2) which comprises inner and outer annular members 21, 22 the member 22 being carried by the wall 14. The mem bers 21, 22 define an annular air passage 23 which communicates with the inner ends of tangential inlet passages 24. Air is drawn from the duct and supplied to the passages 23 by means of an electrically driven pump 36.
Upstream of the combustion chamber 1 3 is located the main body portion of an ultrasonic atomiser generally indicated at 25. The atomiser includes a piezo electric crystal 26 which is sandwiched between a velocity transformer 27 and an electrically insulating washer 28. A seismic mass 29 is located adjacent the insulating washer 28 and the components of the transducer are secured together by means of a hollow bolt 30. The seismic mass 29 is secured by means of threaded bolts (not shown) to a support 31 there being a flexible gasket disposed therebetween. The support 31 is mounted on struts 31A within the duct 12.
A reduced end portion of the velocity transformer 27 extends through the aperture in the member 21 into the upstream end of the combustion chamber and formed within the reduced end portion and the main portion of the velocity transformer is a fuel passage 27A which is connected to a passage formed in the aforesaid clamping bolt 30. This passage is connected with a fuel supply, by way of an axial passage in the support 31.
The piezo electric crystal 26 is electrically connected to an ultrasonic generator 32 and when this is in operation and fuel is supplied through the passage 27A the surface of the reduced portion of the velocity transformer will vibrate and the fuel flowing through the passage 27A will be atomised at the surface.
As shown the passage has a single outlet on the surface. It may however have a multiplicity of outlets. The washer 28 may be replaced by a further crystal electrically connected in parallel with the crystal 26.
The fuel which is delivered to the combustion chamber is ignited by means of a spark plug 33 which has an electrode 34 extending within the combustion chamber. High voltage is supplied to the spark plug by means of a high voltage generator 35.
In use, with air flowing through the duct 1 2 and with the high voltage generator 35, the ultrasonic generator 32 and the pump 36 in operation, the fuel will be ignited within the combustion zone and the products of combustion will pass into the air stream flowing towards the engine thereby resulting in heating of the air being drawn into the combustion spaces of the engine.
The degree of heating of the air flowing to the combustion zone is altered by varying the fuel flow through the passage in the atomiser.
Fuel is supplied to the passages in the atomiser 25 by means of a pump 37 which may be driven by an electric motor or it may be a lift pump forming part of the fuel pump of the engine. The output pressure of the pump is regulated by a regulator 38 and the rate of flow of fuel is determined by a flow control valve 39 including a valve member operated by an electrical actuator 40.
The regulator 38 includes a housing 41 divided by a diaphragm 42 which mounts a valve member 43. Fuel is supplied to the portion of the interior of the housing defined on one side of the diaphragm, from the pump 37 by way of a restrictor 44 and can flow through an outlet orifice 45 to a drain. Moreover, said portion of the interior of the housing is connected to an inlet 47 of the flow control valve 39. The effective size of the orifice 45 is determined by the valve member 43, the position of which is determined by the force exerted on one side of the diaphragm by the pressure downstream of the restrictor 44 which opposes the force exerted by a coiled compression spring 46.Moreover, the other portion of the interior of the housing is connected to the interior of the duct 1 2 and the arrangement is such that fuel will be supplied to the inlet 47 of the valve at a predetermined pressure above the pressure in the duct, the predetermined pressure being determined by the force of the spring 46.
The control valve 39 constitutes a variable orifice and includes a valve member 48 located within a chamber communicating with the inlet 47. The valve member is of half spherical form and is biassed to close an outlet orifice, by means of a spring. The spring is of annular form and is retained between two parts of a housing defining the chamber. In addition the spring has a plurality of inwardly extending limbs 49 which engage the curved surface of the valve member. The outlet orifice is formed by the end of a passage in an outlet union 50, this passage communicating with the axial passage in the support 30 of the atomiser. The valve member 48 can be moved away from the end of the passage to allow flow of fuel to the atomiser by the actuator 40 the output member 51 of which is connected to the valve member 48 by means of a wire.
The actuator 40 may be a torque motor an example of which is described in the specification of British Patent 1480590.
The flow of current to the actuator 40 is controlled by an electrical control unit 52. The control unit also receives a signal from a temperature sensor 53 which is mounted at the downstream end of the duct 1 2 and in the control unit 52, the actual temperature is compared with a preset value and the difference signal is utilised to determine the current flow to the winding of the actuator.
In addition, the control unit receives a signal from a further temperature sensor 54 which is located in the exhaust manifold of the engine and a further signal from a speed transducer 55 which provides a signal indicative of the engine spef d.
The output signal from the sensor 54 is supplied to the control unit and is compared therein with two preset values. One of these represents the turn on value whilst the other is the turn off value. The two values are different so as to prevent the heater unit being switched on and off as the engine exhaust gas temperature changes due to the operation of the heater. The speed signal is supplied to the control unit and is utilised to determine the maximum and minimum fuel flow values at the particular speed the engine is operating.
In this manner the extinction of the flame in the combustion chamber due to either an excessively weak or an excessively rich mixture is avoided.
The control unit 52 also serves to control the operation of the ultrasonic generator 32, the high voltage generator 35 and the air pump 36.
A similar construction of heater can be used where the heater is intended to be positioned between the exhaust manifold of the engine and the inlet to the turbine of the turbo supercharger. In this case, however, the various components must be constructed so that they can withstand the temperature of the exhaust gas during normal operation of the engine.
