Uppfinningen avser aven ett avgassystem som innefattar arrangemanget och/eller filteranordningen och ett fordon som innefattar avgassystemet. FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to an arrangement for filtering soot particles in an exhaust stream of an internal combustion engine and a filter device for the arrangement. The invention also relates to an exhaust system comprising the arrangement and / or the filter device and a vehicle comprising the exhaust system.
UPPFINNINGENS BAKGRUND Forbranningsmotorer anvands i flera typer av applikationer och fordon i dag, till exennpel i tunga fordon, sasonn lastbilar eller bussar, personbilar, motorbatar, fartyg, farjor eller skepp. Forbranningsmotorer anvands aven i industrinnotorer och/eller motordrivna industrirobotar, kraftverk, sasonn t.ex. elkraftverk som innefattar en dieselgenerator, och i lok. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Internal combustion engines are used in several types of applications and vehicles today, for example in heavy vehicles, such as trucks or buses, cars, motor boats, ships, ferries or ships. Internal combustion engines are also used in industrial engines and / or motor-driven industrial robots, power plants, season e.g. electric power plants that include a diesel generator, and in locomotives.
Avgaser fran forbranningsmotorer, speciellt Than dieselmotorer, innefattar forbranningsrester, sasom sotpartiklar. Dieseldrivna motorfordon forses darfor med avgasreningsanordningar i syfte att minska utslapp av partiklar och kemikalier som forekommer i dieselmotorns avgaser. For att reglera emissioner Iran fordon finns det olika standarder och lagkrav som reglerar nivaer for tillatna avgasutslapp. Exhaust gases from internal combustion engines, especially Than diesel engines, include combustion residues, such as soot particles. Diesel-powered motor vehicles are therefore equipped with exhaust gas purification devices in order to reduce emissions of particles and chemicals that occur in the diesel engine's exhaust gases. To regulate emissions from Iranian vehicles, there are various standards and legal requirements that regulate levels of permissible exhaust emissions.
Det finns ett stort behov av att minska antalet partiklar i avgaserna. Forutom att lagkraven maste uppfyllas, finns det ocksa ett behov av att skydda olika ledningar, kanaler och anordningar i fordonets avgassystem nedstroms onn forbranningsnnotorn. Om avgasflodet innehaller stora nnangder partiklar, 2 nedsmutsas aven partikelfilter i avgassystennet. Detta innebar att partikelfilter nnaste regenereras ofta. Regenerering kan goras till exennpel genonn att sotpartiklarna branns vid hoga temperaturer. Om temperaturen under motorns drift inte blir tillrackligt hog, kravs det motoratgarder for att hoja temperaturen. Detta i sin tur leder till hogre bransleforbrukning. There is a great need to reduce the number of particles in the exhaust gases. In addition to the fact that the legal requirements must be met, there is also a need to protect various pipes, ducts and devices in the vehicle's exhaust system downstream of the combustion engine. If the exhaust stream contains large amounts of particles, the particulate filter in the exhaust system is also contaminated. This meant that particulate filters almost regenerated frequently. Regeneration can be made into an example by burning the soot particles at high temperatures. If the temperature during engine operation does not become sufficiently high, engine guards are required to raise the temperature. This in turn leads to higher fuel consumption.
Flera olika metoder och anordningar har foreslagits for avgasrening. Till exennpel i en publicerad patentansokan US2002/0189247 foreslas anyandning av tva-stegsfiltrering nedstroms om en forbranningsmotor. I ett forsta steg anvands en filteranordning i motorns avgassamlare. Several different methods and devices have been proposed for exhaust gas purification. For example, in a published patent application US2002 / 0189247, it is proposed to use two-stage filtration downstream of an internal combustion engine. In a first step, a filter device is used in the engine exhaust collector.
Filteranordningen innefattar ett nonwoven filtermaterial av metallfibrer. Filteranordningen är vasentligen cirkularcylindrisk och innefattar ett flertal axiellt strackande kanaler som är anordnade radiellt over cylinderns invandiga volynn. Nonwoven-materialet placeras i filteranordningens kanaler. Nackdelen med denna losning är att filteranordningens struktur är rigid och att den inte gar att anpassa till olika typer och storlekar av ledningar och kanaler pa ett enkelt satt. The filter device comprises a nonwoven filter material of metal fibers. The filter device is substantially circular-cylindrical and comprises a plurality of axially extending channels which are arranged radially over the internal volume of the cylinder. The nonwoven material is placed in the channels of the filter device. The disadvantage of this solution is that the structure of the filter device is rigid and that it cannot be adapted to different types and sizes of wires and channels in a simple way.
Det finns darfor fortfarande behov av en enkel och platssparande losning for att minska antalet partiklar i avgasflodet. There is therefore still a need for a simple and space-saving solution to reduce the number of particles in the exhaust stream.
SAMMANFATTNING AV UPPFINNINGEN Syftet med foreliggande uppfinning är att minska nedsmutsning av utrustning nedstroms om en forbranningsmotor med avseende pa avgasernas stromningsriktning. Speciellt är det ett syfte att minska antalet partiklar i avgasflodet for att minska behovet for reng6ring och/eller regenerering av reningsanordningar nedstroms om forbranningsmotorn i avgassystemet. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to reduce fouling of equipment downstream of an internal combustion engine with respect to the flow direction of the exhaust gases. In particular, it is an object to reduce the number of particles in the exhaust stream in order to reduce the need for cleaning and / or regeneration of cleaning devices downstream of the combustion engine in the exhaust system.
Det är ett vidare syfte med uppfinningen att rengora avgasflodet utan att motorprestanda paverkas vasentligt. 3 Det är ett ytterligare syfte med uppfinningen att tillhandahalla en filteranordning som kan anpassas till tranga utrynnnnen. It is a further object of the invention to clean the exhaust stream without significantly affecting engine performance. It is a further object of the invention to provide a filter device which can be adapted to narrow outlets.

DETALJERAD BESKRIVNING Avgassannlaren är en anordning som innefattar en sannlingskannnnare i vilken avgaserna Than cylindrarnas utloppskanaler flodar. Avgassamlaren innefattar aven ett avgasutlopp. Var och en av cylindrarna är kopplad till en utloppskanal och utloppskanalerna är anslutna till samlingskammaren. DETAILED DESCRIPTION The exhaust gas condenser is a device that includes a truth scanner in which the exhaust gases from the exhaust ducts of the cylinders flow. The exhaust gas collector also includes an exhaust outlet. Each of the cylinders is connected to an outlet duct and the outlet ducts are connected to the collection chamber.
Ett arrangemang enligt uppfinningen for att minska antalet partiklar i avgasflodet innan avgasflodet lamnar avgassamlaren innefattar atminstone en filteranordning i en utloppskanal mellan forbranningsmotorns cylinder/cylindrar och avgassamlarens samlingskammare. Avgasflodet kan sedan ledas vidare till ytterligare avgasrening i ett avgassystem, till exempel till ett partikelfilter och/eller en katalysator. An arrangement according to the invention for reducing the number of particles in the exhaust stream before the exhaust stream leaves the exhaust collector comprises at least one filter device in an outlet duct between the cylinder (s) of the internal combustion engine and the collection chamber of the exhaust collector. The exhaust stream can then be passed on to further exhaust purification in an exhaust system, for example to a particulate filter and / or a catalyst.
Filteranordningen innefattar ett fiberfilter av kiseldioxidfibrer och är anpassat att filtrera partiklar fran avgasflodet genom att partiklarna fastnar pa eller fangas av fiberfiltret och/eller pa fiberfiltrets fibrer. Fibrerna i ett filter är slumpvis trasslade och bildar ett nat och sotpartiklar, som kan ha en klibbig yta, kan darigenom bade fastna pa kiseldioxidfibrernas yta och bli fangade i det bildade fibernatet. The filter device comprises a fiber filter of silica fibers and is adapted to filter particles from the exhaust stream by the particles getting stuck on or trapped by the fiber filter and / or on the fibers of the fiber filter. The fibers in a filter are randomly tangled and form a seam and soot particles, which may have a sticky surface, can thereby both adhere to the surface of the silica fibers and become trapped in the formed fiber net.
Eftersom filteranordningen enligt uppfinningen fungerar som ett forfilter, är en partikelfiltreringsgrad pa ca 60-80% godtagbar, varvid anordningar, ledningar och kanaler nedstroms om motorn atminstone delvis kan skyddas fran nedsmutsningen. Filtreringsgraden kan forstas vara annu h6gre. Since the filter device according to the invention functions as a pre-filter, a degree of particle filtration of about 60-80% is acceptable, whereby devices, lines and ducts downstream of the engine can be at least partially protected from contamination. The degree of filtration can of course be even higher.
Kiseldioxidfibrer är varmetaliga och aven taliga mot olika kemikalier. Eftersom kiseldioxidfibrerna tal hoga temperaturer kan de fangade och/eller fastklibbade sotpartiklarna i fiberfiltret forbrannas spontant eller styrt och filtret kan darigenom regenereras. Darfor passar de utmarkt till att anvandas i samband med forbranningsmotorer. Silica fibers are heat-metal and also resistant to various chemicals. Since the silica fibers speak at high temperatures, the trapped and / or stuck soot particles in the fiber filter can be burned spontaneously or in a controlled manner and the filter can thereby be regenerated. Therefore, they are excellent for use in connection with internal combustion engines.
Kiseldioxidfibrerna är foretradesvis av ren kiseldioxid. Ett exempel pa fibermaterial av denna typ levereras av f6retaget Saint Gobain Quartz, till exempel under ett varumarke Quartzel® Wool. The silica fibers are preferably of pure silica. An example of fibrous material of this type is supplied by the company Saint Gobain Quartz, for example under a brand name Quartzel® Wool.
Fibrerna i fiberfiltret kan aven belaggas med ett katalytiskt material for att kunna branna bort partiklar kontinuerligt vid relativt laga temperaturer -Iran ca 200°C till 250 °C. Det katalytiska materialet kan vara en adelmetall, till exempel vanadin, rodium och/eller palladium, eller nagot annat katalytiskt material. The fibers in the fiber filter can also be coated with a catalytic material in order to be able to burn off particles continuously at relatively low temperatures - from about 200 ° C to 250 ° C. The catalytic material may be a noble metal, for example vanadium, rhodium and / or palladium, or some other catalytic material.
Kiseldioxidfibrerna packas for att forma ett fiberfilter. Med packning menas att fibrerna, som levereras ofta som en fibermatta, i vilken kiseldioxidfibrerna är slumpmassigt ordnade, komprimeras till exempel pa mekaniskt vis till en onskad volym och/eller form. Filtret kan aven formas med formpressning. 6 Fibrerna är formbara och kan anta nastan vilken form som heist och kan darigenonn anpassas till olika applikationer. Dessutonn kan fiberfiltret folja krokningar i kanaler och är darfor anvandbart aven i sadana system som innehaller krOkningar. The silica fibers are packed to form a fiber filter. By packing is meant that the fibers, which are often delivered as a fiber mat, in which the silica fibers are randomly arranged, are compressed, for example, mechanically to a desired volume and / or shape. The filter can also be formed by compression molding. 6 The fibers are malleable and can take almost any shape and can therefore be adapted to different applications. In addition, the fiber filter can follow hooks in ducts and is therefore usable even in such systems which contain hooks.
For att fa en sa hog filtreringsgrad som nnojligt hos ett fiberfilter bor fiberfiltrets yta maximeras. Filteranordningen enligt uppfinningen är huvudsakligen pasformigt med en 6ppen forsta ande och en sluten andra ande, varvid en relativt stor filtreringsyta erhalls. Till exempel i en typ av en avgassamlare kan filtret vara vasentligen cirkularcylindriskt och bilda ett pasformigt filter. Ytan pa ett filter i avgassamlaren kan vara som minst ca 0,1 m2. I teorin har ytan pa filtret ingen ovre grans, men av praktiska skal är den ovre gransen ca 0,3 m2, beroende pa utrynnnnet i avgassannlaren. For att vidare maximera ytan som kan fanga sotpartiklarna, har fibrerna foretradesvis en diameter pa cirka 7-10 pm. In order to obtain such a high degree of filtration as is possible with a fiber filter, the surface of the fiber filter should be maximized. The filter device according to the invention is substantially fit with a 6ppen first spirit and a closed second spirit, whereby a relatively large filtration surface is obtained. For example, in one type of exhaust gas collector, the filter may be substantially circular-cylindrical and form a fit filter. The surface of a filter in the exhaust gas collector can be at least about 0.1 m2. In theory, the surface of the filter has no upper limit, but for practical purposes, the upper limit is about 0.3 m2, depending on the exhaust in the exhaust sensor. To further maximize the surface area that can trap the soot particles, the fibers preferably have a diameter of about 7-10 microns.
Filtrets tjocklek paverkar ocksa filtrets filtreringsgrad. Vaggtjockleken av filtret beror pa filtrets storlek, luftfloden i det aktuella systemet och vilken reningsgrad som 6nskas, men kan variera mellan 10-30 mm och är foretradesvis mellan 15 och 20 mm. The thickness of the filter also affects the degree of filtration of the filter. The rock thickness of the filter depends on the size of the filter, the air flow in the system in question and the degree of purification desired, but can vary between 10-30 mm and is preferably between 15 and 20 mm.
En ytterligare parameter som paverkar filtreringsgraden är fiberfiltrets porositet. Porositeten definierar hur mycket luft fiberfiltret innefattar. Porositeten är foretradesvis sa hog som mojligt, till exempel mellan 95-96%, sa att mottrycket i avgassystemet inte paverkas avsevart. Om porositeten är Over 96 % akar risken for att filtret komprimeras av avgasflodet. Fiberfiltret kan ha en porositet mellan 92-96% sa att mottrycket i avgassystemet kan hallas pa en godtagbar lag niva. Lagt nnottryck i avgassystemet ger battre motorprestanda, reducerar bransleforbrukningen och darmed kan mangden skadliga avgaser Man motorer minskas. An additional parameter that affects the degree of filtration is the porosity of the fiber filter. The porosity defines how much air the fiber filter contains. The porosity is preferably as high as possible, for example between 95-96%, so that the back pressure in the exhaust system is not affected significantly. If the porosity is Over 96%, there is a risk that the filter will be compressed by the exhaust stream. The fiber filter can have a porosity between 92-96% so that the back pressure in the exhaust system can be kept at an acceptable level. Low pressure in the exhaust system results in better engine performance, reduces fuel consumption and thus the amount of harmful exhaust gases can be reduced.
Avgasflodet i respektive kanal efter forbranningsnnotorns respektive cylinder kan variera mellan ca 100-500 m3/h. Vid storre avgasfloden okar risken for att filtret komprimeras under driften. 7 Det pasformiga fiberfiltrets oppna forsta ande har foretradesvis ett tvarsnitt som nnotsvarar tvarsnittet av en kanal i vilken filteranordningen är avsedd att placeras. Till exempel kan tvarsnittet vara cirkulart. Detta underlattar montering av filtret i en kanal eller ledning i en 6nskad position. The exhaust flow in each channel after the respective cylinder of the combustion engine can vary between about 100-500 m3 / h. With larger exhaust floods, the risk of the filter being compressed during operation increases. The open front end of the fit fiber filter preferably has a cross-section corresponding to the cross-section of a channel in which the filter device is intended to be placed. For example, the cross section may be circular. This facilitates mounting of the filter in a duct or conduit in a desired position.
Filteranordningen kan innefatta atnninstone en flans och den 6ppna anden kan forses med flansen eller motsvarande. Flansen har en form och storlek som motsvarar formen och storleken av den kanal i vilken filteranordningen är avsedd att placeras. Flansen kan tillhandahallas med nnonteringselement, till exempel en klamanordning, for att ytterligare underlatta montering och demontering av filteranordningen i en kanal. The filter device may comprise at least one flange and the open spirit may be provided with the flange or the like. The flange has a shape and size corresponding to the shape and size of the channel in which the filter device is intended to be placed. The flange can be provided with mounting elements, for example a clamping device, to further facilitate mounting and disassembly of the filter device in a channel.
Fiberfiltret kan omges av ett metallnat. Metallnatet ger stadga och stabilitet till filtret. Foretradesvis är metallnatet ocksa flexibelt och kan darigenom anpassas till tranga utrymmen. The fiber filter can be surrounded by a metal mesh. The metal mesh gives stability and stability to the filter. Preferably, the metal mesh is also flexible and can thereby be adapted to tight spaces.
