Definitions
- This invention concerns a device to handle and recover the kinetic energy in a fluid.
- the current state of technique relevant i.e. to the internal-combustion engine boosting generally makes use of mechanical systems such as turbo superchargers or mechanical drive positive displacement blowers. These devices compress and meter the air delivered to the engine using an approximate method which is inconsistent with the engine needs. This is caused by inaccurate driving devices, by high inertias or by lacking power at a certain speed (rpm) or excessive power at other speeds.
- mechanical systems such as turbo superchargers or mechanical drive positive displacement blowers.
- Figure 1 shows a three-dimensional section plane of the reversible bladed impeller that is the subject of this invention
- - figure 2 shows a front view
- figure 3 shows an A-A longitudinal section
- figure 4 shows a three-dimensional exploded view
- figure 5 shows the diagram of the application of the device to an engine system.
- the purpose of this invention is to overcome all the over mentioned inconveniences introducing a reliable device to completely handle and recover the excessive kinetic energy in a fluid. It optimally meets fluid handling needs, an essential step for obtaining engine cleaner combustions.
- the device is made of a reversible bladed impeller, an electrical engine/generator integral with the impeller and a fluid conveyor cooperating with the impeller and the engine supercharging fluid.
- fluid mechanics reversibility and fast operating time It is especially compact and simple; pressure and air flow can be set with accuracy. Particularly fit to operate as autonomous blower and as a device to recover energy otherwise lost.
- Beside engines it can be used in any duct where there is the need to handling a fluid (gas or liquid) kinetic energy, its pressure and/or air flow surging, and so on with a small loss of pressure and fast operation time.
- the device includes a fixed and a movable part.
- the fixed part includes a casing, preferably aluminum alloy casting and plentifully finned to ease cooling, obtained from the assembly of a fluid conveyor 7, a casing of the engine/generator 8 equipped with cooler and a rear cover 9. There is also a front cover with relevant cooler 10.
- the conveyor may be split in two parts to be joined.
- the fluid conveyor 7 includes internally: a converging spiral of the fluid input 15 with relevant inlet 15', a diverging spiral of the fluid output 16 with relevant outlet 16'; a duct 17 and relevant drain plug 17' for recirculation or partial fluid drain.
- the moving part is made of a bladed impeller 11 integral with an engine/generator 12 by means of a steel shaft 13 supported by high speed sealed antifriction bearings, not needing forced lubrication.
- the bearings 14 are mounted at the two ends ofthe shaft 13 and are inserted in the two covers 9 and 10.
- the bladed impeller is inside the conveyor 7 and works with the inlet 15, the outlet 16 and the duct 17 as follows.
- the device works by means of the fluid dynamic reversibility of the impeller 11 and by means of the engine/generator 12 reversibility (brushless to be preferred) , working either as an engine or a generator.
- the impeller If the impeller is slowed down the fluid expands, lowers its temperature and looses pressure, conveying mechanical power to the engine/generator 12 that works now as an electric generator. Should the output pressure be still very high, recirculation or the partial exhausting of the air through a duct 17 with relevant drain plug 17' is provided.
- the drain plug 17" can be jointed to a proper choke valve (no.6 in picture 5)
- an electronic control unit not shown in the figures
- the impeller accelerates and the blade profile next to the trailing edge operates as an efficient centrifugal blower pushing the fluid to the diverging spiral of the fluid output 16. Afterwards the fluid is sent with suitable pressure to the user device through the outlet 16'.
- the device features mechanical fluid reversibility, the ability of handling pressure and capacity, can operate as an autonomous blower and recovers energy otherwise wasted.
- the engine/generator 12 is a three-phase synchronous electrical machine, with a high efficiency brushless permanent magnet that, operating as an engine, is supplied with a variable high frequency three-phase alternate current obtained converting direct current in an electronic circuit connected to the actuator.
- a generator its output is three-phase alternate current rectified by means of silicon diodes.
- Benchmark test results are exciting either in compressor or in generator mode .
- An approx. 60 mm impeller and a 2 kg total device weight can develop an electrical power that compares to the one of an average car alternator.
- There is no power loss in the main engine because all the exploited energy comes from the exhaust gas and would have been otherwise wasted through the waste gate or due to the turbo supercharger "variable geometry" system.
- the device subject of the invention can substitute the classic alternator of an ordinary engine, which weights an average 5 to 8 kg resulting in a great improvement in performance, weight and costs.
- the device can be used for many applications. In the following there is a description of some applications to engines, with reference to figure 5 schematic diagram.
- No. 4 in picture 5 shows a generic engine such as a road trailer internal combustion engine, boosted by turbo supercharger 3 and receiving the exhaust gas coming from the engine 4 equipped with waste gate 5.
- Device 1 subject of the invention, is in series with the turbo supercharger from which it receives the fluid (the compressed air) that is then driven to the inlet 15.
- the outlet 16 supplies the compressed air intake to the engine 4.
- Device 1 is better put after the intercooler, if any.
- Recirculation or partial fluid exhaust duct 17 goes to a special choke valve 6.
- An electronic converter/rectifier 2 for engine/generator 12 of known type is provided, interfacing as known with the control unit that supervises any other engine function.
- the device subject-matter of the invention is able of filling supercharging gaps that are typical of transient conditions. It "serially” pressurizes the air at the main turbo supercharger (as in two-stage compressors), increasing the torque at low rpm and reducing the grade of smoke due to air shortage. It also reduces the exceeding supercharge pressure delaying the opening of the waste gate and resulting in a greater use of the energy otherwise wasted in exhausted gases.
- the device subject-matter of the invention can be used to restore the power over the full-throttle height. Under this height, being the aviation engine a constant revolution one, it would operate as a supercharge pressure automatic limiter to avoid thermal and mechanical stress of the main engine. In the mean time it operates as main generator; the classic alternator becoming an auxiliary device in a flexible and redundant system. The pressure control would be disabled during take off or in case of emergency.
- the device can also be used with any kind of internal combustion engine
- the device can act usefully as a compressor to get a slight boost.
- the device can be easily applied to any commercially available engine. Beside engine, the device subject-matter of the invention can be applied to any system containing pressurized or moving fluids or to any duct requiring kinetic energy handling of a fluid (gas or liquid) and relevant pressure and/or delivery surging, etc. with small loss of pressure and fast operation time.
- a brush three-phase or single-phase engine/generator 12 slower than brushless ones or a direct current generator/engine.
- the making of the device may require materials such as stainless steel, titanium o even ceramic in case of corrosive and/or hot fluids.
- Composite materials such as techno polymers fiber reinforced may be used in case of cold fluids.
