Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for operating a combustion plant or machine with a fuel-air mixture, in which the fuel is composed of hydrocarbons and of oxygen and hydrogen, oxygen and hydrogen by dissociation of water in one, one Catalyst-receiving water container are generated, and a fuel supply device for performing the method.
- the known method has the disadvantage that the installation required to carry out the method is quite complex.
- the invention further comprises a fuel supply device, which has the task of enabling the method according to the invention to be carried out in an optimal manner.
- a fuel supply device which has the task of enabling the method according to the invention to be carried out in an optimal manner.
- This object is achieved in that one air supply line and one water supply line are connected to the water tank, while a line is provided for the supply of the fuel-air mixture, which leads into the supply line to the incineration plant or machine gas-air mixture is provided ist'Pumpe r .or "compressor or a suction device in the intake passage introducing the.
- the invention is shown in the drawing in a schematically illustrated embodiment and described below.
- the figure shows in a block diagram a combustion plant or machine which is partly fed with a fuel made of hydrocarbons and partly with a fuel made of oxygen and hydrogen obtained by dissociation.
- 1 denotes an incineration plant or machine, which can be, for example, a furnace or an internal combustion engine.
- this system or machine is fed with a fuel 2 made of hydrocarbons, which is stored in a supply container 3 is stored.
- the fuel 2 flows through a line 4 to a fuel umpe 5, which feeds the same via a line 6 to the system or machine 1.
- the supply line 7 may have a separate fuel and combustion air supply or a common supply line.
- the combustion air is supplied, as shown in the figure, by a blower or a compressor 8 via a line 9 into the feed line 7.
- An air filter 10 is connected upstream of the blower or compressor 8, so that the air is cleaned by a Suction line 11 flows to the blower or compressor 8. If the internal combustion engine 1 is a piston engine, the fan 8 can be omitted.
- the combustion air then flows through the air filter 10 directly into the feed line 7 into the combustion chamber.
- the supply of the fuel 2 and the combustion air is known in many versions, which is why details are not reproduced.
- the pollution of the environment, in particular the formation of carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide, is to be substantially reduced.
- the system or machine provides a water tank 12 in which a catalyst is introduced.
- catalysts Many combinations of metals, metal oxides and metalloids are known as catalysts.
- Form elements e.g. Titan with platinum or titanium with
- the water tank 12 has a water reservoir 14 which is connected to the water tank 12 via a connecting line 15.
- a metering device 16 e.g. a control valve that is controlled by a float 17.
- the water in the water tank 12 is circulated by a water pump 18 in a line circuit 19.
- a heat exchanger is inserted in the line circuit 19 and is used for heating the water in the container 12.
- the heat can be supplied in various ways, which is why the supply of heat by a heat source 21 is only indicated schematically.
- the heat source 21 can be a heat exchanger 20 acted upon by the exhaust gases. If it is an internal combustion engine 1 / the heat source can be, for example, the cooling water circuit with which one side of the heat exchanger is acted on. However, direct heat exchange through the combustion gases in the exhaust is also possible.
- the heating of the water in the water tank 12 is necessary because the dissociation of the water into oxygen and hydrogen triggered by the catalyst increases in intensity with increasing temperature.
- An air supply line 22 is also connected to the water tank 12, through which air is conveyed into the water tank 12 by a blower or compressor 23.
- An air preheater 25 is provided in the suction line 24 of the blower or the compressor 23.
- the air preheater 25 can also be omitted, in particular in warm countries, but it is also expedient to provide an air filter on the suction side (not shown), as is shown in the suction line 11 of the combustion air.
- the fuel-air mixture can be introduced into the feed line 7 in various ways. If the machine 1 is a carburetor machine, the fuel mixture delivered from the water tank 12 is introduced into the air line 9. Since the combustion air is sucked in by the combustion machine - there is no need for the blower or compressor 8 - the fuel mixture with the sucked-in air is also fed into the combustion chamber. However, if the combustion Air is supplied by the blower or compressor 8, the fuel mixture coming from the water tank 12 is introduced into the air line immediately before the combustion chamber. In this case, the blower or the compressor 23 connected to the water tank 12 generates the pressure required to introduce the gas mixture into the feed line 7.
- the described system ensures that a system or a machine can be operated in such a way that the fuel content of hydrocarbons 2 can be significantly reduced. Since, in addition, waste heat that would otherwise be lost is used for heating the water in the line circuit 19, the efficiency of the system or the machine 1 is significantly increased compared to known systems or machines.
- the water temperature in the water tank 12 is kept at a relatively low temperature, e.g. kept in the range of 40 ° - 120 ° C.
- the mixture supplied to the feed line 7 can also be heated, e.g. by a heat exchanger fed by the exhaust gases or the cooling water.
