Description

이중 연료 인젝터, 이중 연료 시스템, 내연기관 및 내연기관의 작동 방법{DUAL-FUEL INJECTOR, DUAL-FUEL SYSTEM, INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME}TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a dual fuel injector, a dual fuel system, an internal combustion engine, and an internal combustion engine, and more particularly to a DUAL-FUEL INJECTOR, a DUAL-FUEL SYSTEM, an INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME,

본 발명은 이중 연료 인젝터에 관한 것이다. 본 발명은 또한 이중 연료 시스템, 내연기관 및 내연기관의 작동 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a dual fuel injector. The present invention also relates to a dual fuel system, an internal combustion engine and a method of operation of the internal combustion engine.

제1 작동 모드에서 제1 연료를 연소하고, 제2 작동 모드에서 제2 연료를 연소하는 이중 연료 내연기관이 현장으로부터 충분히 알려져 있다. 제1 작동 모드에서 연소되는 연료는 바람직하게는, 예컨대 디젤과 같은 액체 연료이다. 제2 작동 모드에서 연소되는 제2 연료는, 예컨대 메탄올과 같은 가스상 연료나 액체 연료일 수 있다. 제2 작동 모드에서, 제1 연료는 바람직하게는 제2 연료를 점화시키는 데 활용된다. 여기에 제시되는 본 발명은 특히, 제1 연료 및 제2 연료로서 액체 연료를 각각 연소하는 이중 연료 내연기관에 관한 것이다.A dual fuel internal combustion engine that burns a first fuel in a first operating mode and a second fuel in a second operating mode is well known from the scene. The fuel burned in the first operating mode is preferably a liquid fuel, such as diesel. The second fuel burned in the second operating mode may be a gaseous fuel such as methanol or a liquid fuel. In the second mode of operation, the first fuel is preferably utilized to ignite the second fuel. The present invention presented here is particularly directed to a dual fuel internal combustion engine that burns liquid fuel as a first fuel and a second fuel, respectively.

이중 연료 내연기관은 내연기관의 각각의 실린더를 위한 이중 연료 인젝터를 포함하는 이중 연료 시스템을 포함한다. 현장으로부터 알려진 이중 연료 인젝터는 통상적으로 제1 노즐 밸브와 다수의 제2 노즐 밸브를 포함하는데, 제1 노즐 밸브는 제1 연료를 각각의 실린더의 연소실로 도입하는 기능을 하고, 제2 노즐 밸브는 제2 연료를 각각의 실린더의 연소실로 도입하는 기능을 한다. 이미 설명했다시피, 제1 연료는 특히 디젤이고, 제2 연료는 특히 메탄올, 대안으로서 에탄올 또는 LPG이다.The dual fuel internal combustion engine includes a dual fuel system including a dual fuel injector for each cylinder of the internal combustion engine. Known from the scene, a dual fuel injector typically includes a first nozzle valve and a plurality of second nozzle valves, the first nozzle valve serving to introduce a first fuel into the combustion chamber of each cylinder, and the second nozzle valve And introducing the second fuel into the combustion chamber of each cylinder. As already explained, the first fuel is particularly diesel and the second fuel is especially methanol, alternatively ethanol or LPG.

각각의 노즐 밸브의 영역에서, 특히 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브의 영역에서, 각각의 노즐 밸브의 노즐 니들이 노즐 밸브의 니들 안내부에서 안내되며, 각각의 노즐 밸브에 있는 노즐 니들의 니들 안내부는 적어도 몇몇 섹션에서 니들 연료실을 획정한다. 각각의 노즐 밸브의 각각의 니들 연료실에는 공급 라인을 통해 정해진 연료 압력으로 각각의 연료가 공급될 수 있다. 이것은 제1 노즐 밸브 영역과, 또한 제2 노즐 밸브 영역 모두에 적용된다.In the region of each nozzle valve, in particular in the region of the respective second nozzle valve, the nozzle needle of each nozzle valve is guided in the needle guide of the nozzle valve, and the needle guide of the nozzle needle in each nozzle valve has at least some Define the needle fuel seals in the section. Each needle fuel chamber of each nozzle valve may be supplied with fuel at a predetermined fuel pressure via a supply line. This applies to both the first nozzle valve region and the second nozzle valve region.

제1 노즐 밸브를 통해 각각의 실린더의 연소실로 도입 가능한 디젤 연료는 각각의 노즐 니들을 위한 윤활 기능을 맡으며, 이 경우 디젤 연료는 더욱이 무독성이다. 이와 대조적으로, 제2 노즐 밸브를 통해 각각의 실린더의 연소실로 도입 가능한 메탄올은 한편으로는 윤활 기능을 하지 않으며, 다른 한편으로는 유독성이기 때문에, 현장에서는 한편으로는 제2 연료가 니들 안내부를 통해 주변으로 빠져나가는 것을 방지하고, 다른 한편으로는 니들 안내부의 각각의 노즐 니들을 윤활시키기 위해 상기 또는 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브 영역에 있는 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브의 니들 안내부에 실링 및 윤활 오일을 공급하는 것이 통상적이다.The diesel fuel which can be introduced into the combustion chamber of each cylinder through the first nozzle valve assumes the lubrication function for each nozzle needle, in which case the diesel fuel is even more non-toxic. In contrast, the methanol that can be introduced into the combustion chamber of each cylinder through the second nozzle valve, on the one hand, does not lubricate and, on the other hand, toxic, Sealing and lubrication oil is applied to the needle guides of each second nozzle valve in the or each second nozzle valve region to prevent escape to the periphery and on the other hand to lubricate the respective nozzle needle of the needle guide Is usually supplied.

현장으로부터 알려진 이중 연료 인젝터에서, 제2 연료의 연료 압력은 내연기관의 제2 작동 모드의 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브의 니들 연료실에 영구적으로 존재하며, 수백 바아, 특히 대략 600 바아 정도의 크기에 이를 수 있다. 이러한 이유로, 현장으로부터 알려진 이중 연료 인젝터에서는, 실링 및 윤활 오일에 제2 연료의 연료 압력보다 높은 압력을 제공하는 것이 필수적이며, 따라서 이중 연료 인젝터에는 고압을 받는 실링 및 윤활 오일이 공급되어야만 한다. 이것은 복잡하며 불리하다.In a dual fuel injector known from the field, the fuel pressure of the second fuel is permanently present in the needle fuel chamber of each second nozzle valve of the second operating mode of the internal combustion engine and is of the order of hundreds of bar, This can be done. For this reason, in a dual fuel injector known from the field, it is essential to provide a higher pressure than the fuel pressure of the second fuel to the sealing and lubricating oil, and therefore the double fuel injector must be supplied with sealing and lubricating oil that receives high pressure. This is complex and disadvantageous.

도 2 및 도 3은 제2 노즐 밸브(9)의 영역에서의 이중 연료 인젝터(6)로부터의 발췌부를 보여주며, 제2 노즐 밸브는 각각의 실린더(2)의 연소실(5)에 제2 연료를 주입하는 기능을 하며, 도 2에 도시한 제2 노즐 밸브(9)는 폐쇄되어 있고, 도 3에 도시한 제2 노즐 밸브는 개방되어 있다.2 and 3 show excerpts from the dual fuel injector 6 in the region of the second nozzle valve 9 and a second nozzle valve is shown in the combustion chamber 5 of each cylinder 2, And the second nozzle valve 9 shown in Fig. 2 is closed, and the second nozzle valve shown in Fig. 3 is opened.

따라서, 도 2 및 도 3에 도시한 이중 연료 인젝터(6)의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)는, 니들 안내부(22)에서 상하로 이동 가능하게 안내되는 노즐 니들(21)을 포함하며, 이 니들 안내부(22)는 이중 연료 인젝터(6)의 기본 본체(23)에 의해 마련된다. 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)의 니들 안내부(22)는 적어도 몇몇 섹션에서 니들 연료실(24)을 획정하며, 니들 연료실에는, 주입 사이클에 따라 각각의 스위칭 밸브(18)와 실린더(2) 또는 이중 연료 인젝터(6)의 스위칭 밸브(18)로부터 각각의 니들 연료실(24)로 통하는 제2 연료용 공급 라인(25)을 통해 제2 연료가 공급될 수 있다.Therefore, the second nozzle valve 9 of the dual fuel injector 6 shown in Figs. 2 and 3 includes a nozzle needle 21 which is guided movably up and down in the needle guide portion 22, The needle guide 22 is provided by the basic body 23 of the dual fuel injector 6.

이미 설명한 바와 같이, 이중 연료 인젝터(6)의 상기 또는 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)에 할당되는 스위칭 밸브(18)는 단지 각각의 실린더(2)의 주입 사이클에 따라 각각의 제2 니들 밸브(9)의 각각의 니들 연료실(24)에 제2 연료를 공급하므로, 각각의 실린더(2)의 주입 사이클에 따라, 즉 특히 도 3에 따른 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)가 개방될 때, 즉 노즐 니들(21)의 윤곽(26)이 니들 안내부(22)의 대응하는 밸브 시트(27)로부터 들어올려질 때에 제2 연료의 연료 압력이 니들 연료실(24)에 존재한다. 특히 이와 대조적으로, 도 2에 따르면 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)는 노즐 니들(21)의 윤곽(26)이 니들 안내부(22)의 밸브 시트(27)에 대해 놓이는 것에 의해 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)가 폐쇄될 때, 스위칭 밸브(18)가 폐쇄되어, 니들 연료실(24)에는 공급 라인(25)을 통해 제2 연료가 공급되지 않고, 이에 따라 제2 연료의 연료 압력이 니들 연소실(24)에 존재하지 않는다.The switching valve 18 assigned to the or each second nozzle valve 9 of the dual fuel injector 6 is connected to each second needle valve 9 only in accordance with the injection cycle of each cylinder 2. [ The second fuel supply to the respective needle fuel chambers 24 of the respective cylinders 2 and 9 is effected in accordance with the injection cycle of each cylinder 2, The fuel pressure of the second fuel is present in the needle fuel chamber 24 when the outline 26 of the nozzle needle 21 is lifted from the corresponding valve seat 27 of the needle guide 22. [ 2, each second nozzle valve 9 is configured so that the outline 26 of the nozzle needle 21 rests against the valve seat 27 of the needle guide 22, When the two-nozzle valve 9 is closed, the switching valve 18 is closed so that the needle fuel chamber 24 is not supplied with the second fuel via the supply line 25, Is not present in the needle combustion chamber 24.

도 3에는, 개방된 제2 노즐 밸브(9)에 의한 제2 연료의 흐름이 연속 도시된 화살표 선으로 도시되어 있으며, 스위칭 밸브(18)로부터 나온 제2 연료는 이에 따라 공급 라인(25)을 통해 니들 연료실(24)에 공급되고, 노즐 니들(21)이 밸브 시트(27)로부터 들어올려짐으로써 이중 연료 인젝터의 기본 본체(23)에 있는 오리피스(28)를 통해 각각의 실린더(2)의 연소실(5)로 도입될 수 있다. 이와 비교하여, 도 3은 점선으로, 각각의 니들 연소실(24)에서의 각각의 폐쇄된 제2 노즐 밸브(9)에 의해 제2 연료가 공급되지 않는 것을 보여주는데, 이 경우에는 스위칭 밸브(18)가, 니들 연료실(24)의 폐쇄된 제2 노즐 밸브(9)에 의해 제2 연료의 연료 압력이 존재하지 않도록 폐쇄되기 때문에 제2 연료가 공급되지 않는다. 도 3의 상태에서는, 실링 및 윤활 오일이 니들 연료실(24)의 영역으로 흘러 들어갈 수 있다.3, the flow of the second fuel by the open second nozzle valve 9 is shown by the arrowed line in the figure, and the second fuel coming out of the switching valve 18 is then supplied to the supply line 25 And the nozzle needle 21 is lifted from the valve seat 27 so that the fuel is injected through the orifice 28 in the basic body 23 of the dual fuel injector into the needle fuel chamber 24 through the orifice 28 of each cylinder 2 Can be introduced into the combustion chamber (5). 3 shows, by a dotted line, that the second fuel is not supplied by the respective closed second nozzle valves 9 in the respective needle combustion chambers 24, in which case the switching valve 18 is closed, The second fuel is not supplied because the fuel pressure of the second fuel is closed by the second nozzle valve 9 of the needle fuel chamber 24 which is closed. 3, sealing and lubricating oil can flow into the region of the needle fuel chamber 24. [

도 2 및 도 3에 따르면, 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)의 니들 안내부(22)는 또한, 적어도 몇몇 섹션에서 실링 및 윤활 오일이 공급될 수 있는 니들 윤활실(29)을 한정한다. 도 2 및 도 3에 도시한 점선 화살표 선에 따르면, 각각의 니들 윤활실(29)에는, 한편으로는 각각의 니들 안내부(22)의 각각의 실링 니들(21)을 윤활하고, 다른 한편으로는 제2 연료가 니들 안내부(22)를 통해 주위로 빠져나가는 것을 방지하기 위해 실링 및 윤활 오일 시스템(19)의 오일 탱크(20)로부터 나온 실링 및 윤활 오일이 공급될 수 있다.2 and 3, needle guide 22 of each second nozzle valve 9 also defines a needle lubricating chamber 29 in which at least some sections can be supplied with sealing and lubricating oil. According to the dotted arrow lines shown in Figs. 2 and 3, in each needle lubricating chamber 29, on the one hand the respective sealing needles 21 of the respective needle guides 22 are lubricated, on the other hand, Sealing and lubricating oil from the oil tank 20 of the sealing and lubricating oil system 19 may be supplied to prevent the second fuel from escaping around the needle guide 22.

여기에서, 이중 연료 인젝터(6)에 있는 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)의 노즐 니들(21)의 축방향 또는 이동방향으로 봤을 때에 니들 연료실(24)과 니들 윤활실(29) 사이의 거리(X)는, 특히 니들 연료실(24)에서의 제2 연료의 연료 압력(도 3 참고)이 주입 사이클에 따라 존재할 때에 니들 연료실(24)에서 나온 제2 연료가 니들 안내부(22)를 통해 니들 윤활실(29) 방향으로 이동할 수 있지만, 니들 윤활실(29) 영역으로는 진입하지 않고, 이에 따라 실링 및 윤활 오일이 특히 그 압력이 제2 연료의 연료 압력보다 낮은 경우라도 니들 윤활실(29)로부터 변위될 수 없도록 하는 방식으로 크기가 정해진다.Here, the distance between the needle fuel chamber 24 and the needle lubricating chamber 29 when viewed in the axial direction or the moving direction of the nozzle needle 21 of each second nozzle valve 9 in the dual fuel injector 6 The second fuel injected from the needle fuel chamber 24 is injected into the needle guide 22 at a time when the fuel pressure of the second fuel in the needle fuel chamber 24 (see FIG. 3) Even if the pressure of the sealing and lubricating oil is lower than the fuel pressure of the second fuel, the needle lubricating chamber 29 can be moved in the direction of the needle lubricating chamber 29 Quot;) < / RTI >

본 발명에 따른 이중 연료 인젝터(6)에 있어서, 상기 또는 각각의 제2 노즐 밸브(9)에는 이에 따라, 제2 연료가 각각의 실린더(2)의 주입 사이클에 따라 이용 가능하게 하기 위해 스위칭 밸브(18)가 할당되므로, 이에 따라 니들 연료실(24) 내의 제2 연료의 연료 압력은 영구적으로 존재하는 것이 아니라, 단지 각각의 주입 사이클에 따라 존재한다. 니들 연료실(24)로부터의 규정된 거리(X)를 갖는 니들 윤활실(29)에는, 제2 연료의 연료 압력보다 낮은 압력을 갖는 실링 및 윤활 오일이 영구적으로 공급된다. 통상적으로, 제2 연료의 연료 압력은 대략 600 바아이며, 실링 및 윤활 오일의 오일 압력은 100 바아 미만, 예컨대 대략 10 바아이다. 니들 연료실(24)과 니들 윤활실(29) 사이의 규정된 거리(X)로 인해, 제2 연료는 특히 주입 사이클에 따라 제2 연료의 연료 압력이 니들 연료실(24)에 존재할 때에 사실상 니들 윤활실(29)의 방향으로 이동할 수 있지만, 니들 윤활실(29) 영역으로는 진입하지 않고, 이에 따라 실링 및 윤활 오일을 니들 윤활실(29)로부터 변위시키지 않는다. 따라서, 니들 연료실(24)과 니들 윤활실(29) 사이의 거리(X)는, 주입 사이클에 따라 그리고 또한 바람직하게는 실링 및 윤활 오일의 오일 압력과 제2 연료의 연료 압력에 따라 치수가 정해진다.In the dual fuel injector 6 according to the present invention, the or each second nozzle valve 9 is thus provided with a switching valve (not shown) for enabling the second fuel to be available according to the injection cycle of each cylinder 2, The fuel pressure of the second fuel in the needle fuel chamber 24 is therefore not permanently present but only in accordance with each injection cycle. The needle lubricating chamber 29 having the prescribed distance X from the needle fuel chamber 24 is permanently supplied with sealing and lubricating oil having a pressure lower than the fuel pressure of the second fuel. Typically, the fuel pressure of the second fuel is approximately 600 bar and the oil pressure of the sealing and lubricating oil is less than 100 bar, such as approximately 10 bar. Due to the prescribed distance X between the needle fuel chamber 24 and the needle lubricating chamber 29, the second fuel is virtually in contact with the needle fuel chamber 24 when the fuel pressure of the second fuel is present in the needle fuel chamber 24, It can move in the direction of the lubricating chamber 29 but does not enter the region of the needle lubricating chamber 29 and thus does not displace the sealing and lubricating oil from the needle lubricating chamber 29. The distance X between the needle fuel chamber 24 and the needle lubricating chamber 29 is therefore determined according to the injection cycle and also preferably according to the oil pressure of the sealing and lubricating oil and the fuel pressure of the second fuel All.
