  The demister unit removes the mist contained in the exhaust gas by allowing the exhaust gas to pass through the inside. If the flow rate of the exhaust gas passing through the demister body is too high, the mist removal performance is degraded. Therefore, in order to improve the mist removal performance, it is effective to reduce the flow rate of the exhaust gas passing through the demister body by increasing the flow path area of the demister body. However, when the flow path area of the demister main body is increased, the demister main body becomes larger, which leads to an increase in size of the demister unit itself. When the demister unit is increased in size, there is a problem that the installation position of the demister unit is restricted and the demister unit cannot be installed at a desired position.

  The present invention solves the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide a demister unit and an EGR system that improve the mist removal performance and suppress the enlargement of the apparatus.

  In order to achieve the above object, a demister unit according to the present invention includes a casing having a hollow shape and having a fluid inlet portion and an outlet portion, and a bent flow by being disposed opposite to the inlet portion in the casing. A baffle plate that forms a path, and a demister body that is disposed downstream of the bent flow path in the flow direction of the fluid in the casing and removes mist from the fluid, and the demister body is attached to the baffle plate It is arranged to be inclined with respect to a predetermined angle.

  Therefore, the fluid introduced into the casing from the inlet portion collides with the baffle plate, so that the contained mist becomes droplets and adheres to the baffle plate and flows down. The fluid from which a part of the mist is removed flows through the bent flow path, so that the mist is further removed by centrifugal force, and finally the remaining mist is removed by the demister body. Here, since the demister body is disposed to be inclined with respect to the baffle plate, an increase in the height of the casing can be suppressed even if the passage area of the demister body is enlarged. As a result, it is possible to improve the mist removal performance and to suppress the enlargement of the apparatus.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, the baffle plate is provided so as to be suspended from the ceiling of the casing, so that a passage opening is provided below, and the demister body has a fluid inlet side facing the passage opening. It is characterized by being arranged so as to be inclined.

  Therefore, since the inlet side of the demister body faces the passage opening side, fluid can be easily introduced in a direction perpendicular to the demister body, and the mist can be efficiently removed by the demister body, improving mist removal efficiency. can do.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, a demister support plate having a mounting surface formed on the ceiling side from the passage opening in the casing is fixed, and the demister body is fixed to the demister support plate. It is said.

  Therefore, by arranging the demister support plate on the ceiling side from the passage opening and fixing the demister body, the demister body can be easily directed toward the passage opening, and the mist of the demister body can be easily configured. Removal efficiency can be improved.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, the casing is provided with a bypass channel that communicates with the passage opening between the bottom and the demister support plate, and a protruding piece that protrudes from the demister body toward the bypass channel is provided. The protruding piece is arranged to be inclined at the same angle as the demister body.

  Therefore, the fluid introduced into the casing from the inlet portion is removed as droplets by colliding with the baffle plate, and the fluid from which a part of the mist has been removed flows around the passage opening. After reaching the road and making a detour, it reaches the demister body. At this time, since the protruding piece protrudes from the demister body toward the bypass channel, the fluid flowing below the demister support plate flows avoiding the protruding piece, and the flow velocity of the fluid is reduced to keep the flow velocity distribution uniform. Can do.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, the protruding piece is characterized in that a part of the constituent members constituting the demister body is formed to protrude toward the bypass channel.

  Therefore, a part of the constituent members constituting the demister main body protrudes toward the detour channel to form the protruding piece, thereby simplifying the structure and reducing the manufacturing cost.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, a plurality of the demister bodies are arranged along the fluid flow direction.

  Therefore, the mist removal performance in the demister unit can be improved by arranging a plurality of demister bodies.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, the plurality of demister bodies are arranged in parallel.

  Therefore, by arranging a plurality of demister bodies in parallel, the fluid can be easily introduced in a direction orthogonal to each demister body, and mist can be efficiently removed by each demister body.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, a perforated plate is disposed at a predetermined distance from the bottom of the casing in the passage opening, and the perforated plate is provided up to a midway portion in the fluid flow direction.

  Accordingly, by providing the perforated plate up to a middle portion in the fluid flow direction, the space portion on the downstream side of the fluid can be enlarged, and the flow path of the fluid can be lengthened to decrease the flow velocity.

  In the demister unit of the present invention, the inlet portion is arranged to be shifted from a horizontal intermediate position in the casing to one side in the horizontal direction.

  Therefore, the fluid introduced into the casing from the inlet part is removed as a mist by colliding with the baffle plate, and then the mist is further removed by the centrifugal force by flowing through the bent flow path. Reach the body. At this time, since the inlet portion of the fluid is arranged shifted to one side in the horizontal direction in the casing, the fluid introduced into the casing from the inlet portion flows to the other side in the horizontal direction by colliding with the baffle plate, After flowing through the bent flow path, it turns horizontally and reaches the demister body. Therefore, the flow path of the fluid becomes long and the flow velocity is lowered, and the mist removal performance can be improved.

  The demister unit according to the present invention is characterized in that a receiving member is provided for receiving a droplet generated by a fluid colliding with the baffle plate.

  Therefore, when the fluid introduced into the casing from the inlet portion collides with the baffle plate, the contained mist forms droplets and adheres to the baffle plate, and flows down the flat portion of the baffle plate by its own weight, and the receiving member To be accepted. Therefore, the fluid flowing in the bent flow path does not take in the droplets again as mist, and the mist removal efficiency can be improved by suppressing reuptake of the mist removed from the fluid into the fluid.

  Further, the EGR system of the present invention provides a liquid to the exhaust gas recirculation line for recirculating a part of the exhaust gas discharged from the engine to the engine as a combustion gas, and the combustion gas flowing through the exhaust gas recirculation line. It comprises a scrubber to be injected and the demister unit into which the combustion gas discharged from the scrubber is introduced.

  Therefore, when a part of the exhaust gas discharged from the engine passes through the exhaust gas recirculation line, the scrubber ejects fluid to the combustion gas flowing through the exhaust gas recirculation line, thereby removing harmful substances. After the mist contained by the demister unit is removed, the mist is supplied to the engine. And in a demister unit, even if the passage area of a demister main body is expanded, the increase in the height of a casing can be suppressed by arrange | positioning a demister main body inclining with respect to a baffle plate. As a result, it is possible to improve the mist removal performance and to suppress the enlargement of the apparatus.

  According to the demister unit and the EGR system of the present invention, it is possible to improve the mist removal performance and to suppress the enlargement of the apparatus.

A flow path 64 is formed.

  In the present embodiment, the distance from the inlet portion 61 that opens to the upstream wall portion 51 e of the casing 51 to the flat portion 52 a of the baffle plate 52 is set to be equal to or smaller than the inner diameter of the inlet portion 61. Therefore, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 flows along the upstream flow path 64 after colliding with the baffle plate 52. That is, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 flows downward in the vertical direction by the baffle plate 52 and then flows in a horizontal direction through the passage opening 63. The flow passage area of the passage opening 63 in the baffle plate 52 is the flow passage area when introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61, that is, the upstream wall portion 51e, the left wall portion 51b, and the right wall portion 51c. It is set larger than the flow path area defined by the baffle plate 52. Therefore, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet 61 is not re-accelerated after passing through the passage opening 63.

  Further, the casing 51 has a perforated plate 53 fixed in a horizontal manner so as to be parallel to the bottom portion 51d at a predetermined interval from the bottom portion 51d at a lower portion inside.

That is, the demister main bodies 55 and 56 are arranged so as to be inclined by a predetermined angle with respect to the mounting surface 54 a of the demister support plate 54. At this time, one demister body 55 is supported on the baffle plate 52 side of the demister support plate 54, and the other demister body 56 is supported on the downstream wall 51f side so that each demister body 55, 56 is predetermined. They are spaced apart by a distance.

  It should be noted that the inclination angle of each demister body 55, 56 is preferably set in the range of 15 degrees to 45 degrees, and is considered to be optimally 30 degrees. Although the demister main bodies 55 and 56 are arranged in parallel with the same inclination angle, the demister main bodies 55 and 56 may be arranged with different inclination angles. The demister main bodies 55 and 56 are arranged so as to be inclined so that the inlet side faces the passage opening 63 side. However, depending on the lengths and mounting positions of the casing 51, the baffle plate 52, the demister main bodies 55 and 56, and the like. It does not necessarily face the passage opening, that is, the tip of the demister body 55, 56 extending in the opening direction does not necessarily intersect with the passage opening 63 but only needs to face the passage opening 63 side. The demister bodies 55 and 56 are not only inclined with respect to the baffle plate 52 but are also inclined with respect to the ceiling 51a, the bottom 51d, the demister support plate 54, etc. of the casing 51 by a predetermined angle. Yes.

  The demister main bodies 55 and 56 are arranged to face the baffle plate 52, and the upstream side of the demister main bodies 55 and 56 is the upstream flow path 64 and the bypass flow path 67, and the downstream side of the demister main bodies 55 and 56 is the downstream side.

The bypass flow path 67 is configured to be separated by the bottom 51 d, the left wall 51 b, the right wall 51 c, the downstream wall 51 f, and the demister support plate 54 of the casing 51. The downstream flow path 68 is configured to be separated by the ceiling 51 a, the left wall 51 b, the right wall 51 c, the downstream wall 51 f, and the demister support plate 54 of the casing 51. Therefore, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 is bent through the upstream flow path 64 and then detoured by the bypass flow path 67 before reaching the demister main bodies 55 and 56, After passing through 56, it is discharged from the outlet portion 62 through the downstream channel 68.

  The baffle plate 52 is provided with a receiving member 57 on the flat portion 52a. The receiving member 57 receives droplets generated by the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 colliding with the baffle plate 52. The receiving member 57 is a flat portion 52 a that faces the inlet portion 61 in the baffle plate 52, and is fixed to the flat portion 52 a so as to be positioned below the inlet portion 61 in the vertical direction.

  The receiving member 57 is provided on the flat surface portion 52a of the baffle plate 52 along the width direction (left-right direction), and extends from an intermediate position in the width direction of the baffle plate 52 toward the walls 51b and 51c. And is inclined downward. In addition, the receiving member 57 has an L-shaped cross section. Therefore, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 collides with the baffle plate 52 to generate droplets. The receiving member 57 can receive the liquid droplet in the groove portion because it flows downward along the flat portion 52 a of the baffle plate 52. Since each end of the receiving member 57 is located at a predetermined interval from each of the wall portions 51b and 51c, the liquid droplets received by the groove portion flow down downward at each end, and are stored in the storage portion 65. Can be shed.

  In the above description, the receiving member 57 has an L-shaped cross-sectional shape, but is not limited to this configuration. For example, the receiving member may be constituted by a horizontal plate, an inclined plate, a bent or curved plate. The receiving member 57 has left and right end portions inclined downward toward the wall surfaces 51b and 51c. However, only one end portion may be inclined downward toward the wall surfaces 51b and 51c. Further, the receiving member 57 may be divided into a plurality of parts or arranged in a plurality of upper and lower stages. Further, the receiving member 57 may be provided below the baffle plate 52 instead of the flat surface portion 52 a of the baffle plate 52.

  Further, the demister body 55 is provided with a protruding piece 58 that protrudes toward the detour channel 67. The projecting piece 58 is formed of a flat plate through which exhaust gas and droplets cannot pass, and is arranged so as to hang from the lower part of the demister main body 55, and is fixed so as to be in close contact with the end of the demister support plate 54. ing. In the present embodiment, the demister main body 55 is configured by assembling a plurality of flat plate members into a frame shape, and a large number of bellows plates are assembled therein, and the protruding piece 58 is a constituent member constituting the demister main body 55. For example, an end portion of the flat plate material on the inlet side is formed so as to protrude toward the bypass channel 67. Therefore, the protruding piece 58 is arranged so as to be inclined at the same angle as the demister main body 55, so that the flat surface portion is flush with the flat surface portion on the inlet side of the demister support plate 54 without any step difference. In this case, the projecting piece 58 has the lower end located at the same position in the vertical direction with respect to the lower end of the baffle plate 52, or located upward in the vertical direction. Therefore, the exhaust gas flowing through the upstream flow path 64 is guided by the protruding piece 58 so as to flow downward from the demister support plate 54, that is, from the bypass flow path 67 toward the flat portion on the inlet side of the demister body 55. Is done.

  The protruding piece 58 does not have to be arranged at the same angle as the inclination angle of the demister body 55, and is provided separately from the demister body 55, or downward from the demister support plate 54 in the vertical direction. It may be provided or may be provided inclined to the baffle plate 52 side.

  Hereinafter, the operation of the EGR system of the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, when combustion air is supplied from the scavenging trunk 22 into the cylinder 21, the engine main body 11 compresses the combustion air by the piston, and fuel is injected into the high-temperature air. It ignites spontaneously and burns. The generated combustion gas is discharged as exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold 23 to the exhaust line G2. The exhaust gas discharged from the engine body 11 is discharged to the exhaust line G3 after rotating the turbine 32 in the supercharger 12, and when the EGR inlet valve 41A is closed, the entire amount is discharged to the outside from the exhaust line G3. Is done.

  On the other hand, when the EGR inlet valve 41A is open, a part of the exhaust gas flows from the exhaust line G3 to the exhaust gas recirculation line G4. The scrubber 42 removes harmful substances such as SOx and dust contained in the exhaust gas flowing into the exhaust gas recirculation line G4. That is, when the exhaust gas passes through the venturi unit 44 at a high speed, the scrubber 42 cools the exhaust gas with this water by injecting water from the water injection unit 46 and also removes particulates (PM) such as SOx and dust. Drop it together and remove it. And the water containing SOx, dust, etc. flows into the demister unit 14 with EGR gas.

  The exhaust gas from which harmful substances have been removed by the scrubber 42 is discharged to the exhaust gas recirculation line G5, and after the scrubber washing water is separated by the demister unit 14, it is sent to the supercharger 12 by the exhaust gas recirculation line G7. The exhaust gas is mixed with the air sucked from the suction line G6 to become a combustion gas, compressed by the compressor 31 of the supercharger 12, and then cooled by the air cooler 48, from the air supply line G1 to the engine body 11. To be supplied.

  Here, processing by the demister unit 14 will be described. As shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 collides with the flat portion 52 a of the baffle plate 52 on the front, and thus along the flat portion 52 a of the baffle plate 52. The mist that spreads out becomes droplets and adheres to the flat portion 52a of the baffle plate 52. Then, the droplets adhering to the flat surface portion 52 a of the baffle plate 52 flow down downward along the flat surface portion 52 a by their own weight and are received by the receiving member 57. The liquid droplet received by the receiving member 57 flows along the width direction of the baffle plate 52, is drained from the end portion to the storage portion 65, and is discharged to the outside by the drainage flow channel 66.

  On the other hand, the exhaust gas from which a part of the mist has been removed becomes a downward flow by the flat surface portion 52a of the baffle plate 52 and the ceiling portion 51a of the casing 51, each of the wall portions 51b and 51c, and the upstream wall portion 51e. Flow into. The exhaust gas flowing into the upstream flow path 64 is bent by the perforated plate 53 to become a horizontal flow, bypasses the bypass flow path 67 by 180 degrees in the vertical direction, and flows upward and flows into the demister body 55 by the protruding piece 58. To reach. At this time, the exhaust gas flowing through the upstream flow path 64 passes below the baffle plate 52, but the droplets adhering to the baffle plate 52 are received by the receiving member 57 and drained to the storage unit 65. Therefore, it does not fall into the upstream flow path 64. Therefore, the exhaust gas flowing through the upstream flow path 64 is prevented from contacting with water, and the re-uptake of the mist removed from the exhaust gas into the exhaust gas is suppressed.

  Further, the exhaust gas flows through the bent upstream flow path 64 and the bypass flow path 67, whereby mist is removed by centrifugal force. Further, when the exhaust gas passes through the demister main bodies 55 and 56, the remaining mist aggregates into droplets and falls into the storage unit 65. Thereafter, the exhaust gas from which the mist has been removed passes through the downstream channel 68 and is discharged to the outside from the outlet 62.

  As described above, in the demister unit of the first embodiment, the casing 51 having a hollow shape and having the exhaust gas inlet portion 61 and the outlet portion 62 is disposed opposite to the inlet portion 61 in the casing 51. The baffle plate 52 that forms the upstream flow path 64 that is bent at the bottom, and the demister main bodies 55 and 56 that are disposed downstream of the upstream flow path 64 in the flow direction of the exhaust gas in the casing 51 and remove mist from the exhaust gas. The demister main bodies 55 and 56 are provided so as to be inclined with respect to the baffle plate 52 by a predetermined angle.

  Accordingly, the demister main bodies 55 and 56 are disposed to be inclined with respect to the baffle plate 52, so that the demister main bodies 55 and 56 are inclined with respect to the horizontal mounting surface 54 a of the casing 51 and the passage area of the demister main bodies 55 and 56 is increased. Even if the height is increased, the demister main bodies 55 and 56 can be inclined to suppress an increase in the storage height in the casing 51. As a result, the passage area of the demister main bodies 55 and 56 can be enlarged to improve the mist removal performance, while the casing 51 can be prevented from being enlarged.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, the baffle plate 52 is provided to hang from the ceiling 51a of the casing 51 to provide a passage opening 63 below, and the fluid inlet side of the demister body 55 is connected to the passage opening 63 side. It is arranged so as to be inclined. Accordingly, since the inlet side of the demister body 55 faces the passage opening 63, the exhaust gas is easily introduced in a direction orthogonal to the demister body 55, and the mist can be efficiently removed by the demister bodies 55 and 56. Mist removal efficiency can be improved.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, a demister support plate 54 having a mounting surface 54 a formed on the ceiling 51 a side of the passage opening 63 in the casing 51 is fixed, and the demister main bodies 55 and 56 are attached to the demister support plate 54. It is fixed. Therefore, the demister body 55 can be easily directed toward the passage opening 63, and the mist removal efficiency by the demister bodies 55 and 56 can be improved with a simple configuration.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, a bypass channel 67 that communicates with the passage opening 63 is provided between the bottom 51 d of the casing 51 and the demister support plate 54, and the protrusion projects from the demister body 55 toward the bypass channel 67. A piece 58 is provided, and the projecting piece 58 is disposed at an angle inclined to the demister body 55. Therefore, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 is removed as droplets by colliding with the baffle plate 52, and the exhaust gas from which part of the mist has been removed passes through the passage opening 63. After passing through the detour channel 67 and detouring, the demister main body 55 is reached. At this time, since the protruding piece 58 protrudes from the demister body 55 toward the detour channel 67, the exhaust gas flowing below the demister support plate 54 flows away from the protruding piece 58, and the flow rate of the exhaust gas is reduced by reducing the flow rate of the exhaust gas. The distribution can be kept uniform.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, the protruding piece 58 is formed by protruding a part of the constituent members constituting the demister main body 55 toward the bypass channel 67. Therefore, by sharing parts, the structure can be simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, a plurality of demister bodies 55 and 56 are arranged along the flow direction of the exhaust gas. Therefore, the mist removal performance in the demister unit 14 can be improved.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, a plurality of demister bodies 55 and 56 are arranged in parallel. Therefore, the exhaust gas is easily introduced in a direction perpendicular to the demister bodies 55 and 56, and the mist can be efficiently removed by the demister bodies 55 and 56.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, the perforated plate 53 is disposed at a predetermined distance from the bottom 51d of the casing 51 in the passage opening 63, and the perforated plate 53 is provided up to a middle part in the exhaust gas flow direction. Therefore, it is possible to enlarge the bypass flow path 67 as the lower space portion of the demister support plate 54, and it is possible to lengthen the flow path of the exhaust gas and reduce the flow velocity.

  In the demister unit of the first embodiment, a receiving member 57 is provided for receiving droplets generated by exhaust gas colliding with the baffle plate 52. Therefore, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 collides with the baffle plate 52, so that the contained mist becomes droplets and adheres to the baffle plate 52, and the flat portion 52a of the baffle plate 52 by its own weight. And is received by the receiving member 57. Therefore, the exhaust gas flowing through the upstream flow path 64 does not take in droplets again as mist, and the mist removal efficiency can be improved by suppressing the re-uptake of the mist removed from the exhaust gas into the exhaust gas.

  In the EGR system of the first embodiment, the exhaust gas recirculation line G4 that recirculates a part of the exhaust gas discharged from the engine body 11 as a part of the combustion gas to the engine body, and the exhaust gas recirculation line. A scrubber 42 that removes harmful substances by injecting water into the exhaust gas flowing through G4 and a demister unit 14 into which the exhaust gas discharged from the scrubber 42 is introduced are provided.

  Therefore, in the demister unit 14, the demister main bodies 55 and 56 are arranged to be inclined with respect to the baffle plate 52, so that the passage area of the demister main bodies 55 and 56 is increased to increase the height. The demister main bodies 55 and 56 can be inclined to suppress an increase in the storage height in the casing 51. As a result, the passage area of the demister main bodies 55 and 56 can be enlarged to improve the mist removal performance, while the casing 51 can be prevented from being enlarged.

[Second Embodiment]
FIG. 6 is a horizontal sectional view showing the demister unit of the second embodiment. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the member which has the same function as 1st Embodiment mentioned above, and detailed description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the demister unit 14 includes a casing 51, a baffle plate 52, a perforated plate 53, a demister support plate 54, and demister main bodies 55 and 56. Since the baffle plate 52, the perforated plate 53, the demister support plate 54, the demister main bodies 55 and 56, the receiving member 57, and the protruding piece 58 have the same configuration as in the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

  The casing 51 has a hollow rectangular box shape and is configured as a container that forms an internal space. That is, the casing 51 is formed by the ceiling 51a, the left wall 51b and the right wall 51c, the bottom 51d, the upstream wall 51e, and the downstream wall 51f. In the casing 51, an inlet portion 61 into which exhaust gas and waste water are introduced is formed on the upper side of the upstream wall portion 51e. Further, the casing 51 has an outlet portion 62 through which exhaust gas (fluid) is discharged in the ceiling portion 51a. And the inlet part 61 is arrange | positioned only the predetermined distance from the intermediate position of the width direction (horizontal direction) in the casing 51 in the horizontal direction one side (upward side in FIG. 6). Further, the outlet 62 is provided at an intermediate position in the width direction of the casing 51 (vertical direction in FIG. 6).

  Therefore, the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 collides with the flat surface portion 52a of the baffle plate 52 on the front surface, and spreads along the flat surface portion 52a of the baffle plate 52, so that the contained mist is droplets. And adheres to the flat portion 52a of the baffle plate 52. Then, the droplets adhering to the flat surface portion 52 a of the baffle plate 52 flow down downward along the flat surface portion 52 a by their own weight and are received by the receiving member 57. The liquid droplet received by the receiving member 57 flows along the width direction of the baffle plate 52, is drained from the end portion to the storage portion 65, and is discharged to the outside by the drainage flow channel 66.

  On the other hand, the exhaust gas that has collided with the baffle plate 52 and from which the mist has been removed flows into the upstream flow path 64 and descends while flowing in the other side in the width direction because the inlet 61 is located on one side in the width direction. To do. The exhaust gas is bent by the perforated plate 53 to become a horizontal flow, bypasses the bypass flow path 67 by 180 degrees in the horizontal direction, and reaches the demister main body 55 as an upward flow by the protruding piece 58. That is, the exhaust gas introduced from the inlet portion 61 on one side of the casing 51 flows into the other side while being guided by the baffle plate 52 and becomes a horizontal flow by the upstream flow path 64, and from the other side in the bypass flow path 67 to the one side. It becomes a swirl like writing a spiral. The swirling flow of the exhaust gas bypasses the bypass passage 67 by 180 degrees in the horizontal direction. When the exhaust gas passes through the demister main bodies 55 and 56, the remaining mist aggregates into droplets and falls into the storage unit 65. Thereafter, the exhaust gas from which the mist has been removed passes through the downstream channel 68 and is discharged to the outside from the outlet 62.

  As described above, in the demister unit according to the second embodiment, the inlet portion 61 is arranged so as to be shifted from the intermediate position in the width direction (horizontal direction) in the casing 51 to one side in the horizontal direction.

  Therefore, after the exhaust gas introduced into the casing 51 from the inlet portion 61 collides with the baffle plate 52 to be removed as mist droplets, the exhaust gas further flows through the upstream flow path 64 to further mist by centrifugal force. Is removed and reaches the demister main bodies 55 and 56 through the detour channel 67. At this time, since the exhaust gas inlet 61 is shifted to one side of the casing 51 in the width direction, the exhaust gas introduced from the inlet 61 into the casing 51 collides with the baffle plate 52 while the other in the width direction. After flowing through the upstream flow path 64, it is raised horizontally after turning horizontally in the bypass flow path 67 and reaches the demister bodies 55 and 56. Therefore, the flow path of the exhaust gas is lengthened and the flow velocity is lowered, and the mist removal performance can be improved.

  In the above-described embodiment, the shape of the casing 51 and the positions of the inlet portion 61 and the outlet portion 62 are not limited to the embodiments, and any one may be used as long as the inlet portion 61 and the baffle plate 52 face each other. It may be the position. Moreover, although the baffle plate 52 is arranged along the vertical direction, it may be inclined.

  Moreover, in embodiment mentioned above, although demonstrated using the main engine as a marine diesel engine, it is applicable also to the diesel engine used as a generator.
