[0002] In some extremely cold scientific research stations, workstations and monitoring stations, diesel generators are one of the main sources of energy for their work. As the international community gradually improves regulations on pollutant emission control of diesel generators, particulate matter emitted by diesel generators, as an important source of air pollution, has received more and more attention for its emission control and management. At present, traditional diesel particulate matter post-treatment technologies include filtration capture, catalytic conversion, electrostatic capture and inertial capture. Due to unsatisfactory efficiency, high operating costs, and complex equipment, these technologies have not been widely accepted and applied.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] Thermophoresis effect refers to the process in which tiny particles move in a fluid with a temperature gradient. Due to the different momentums transferred by molecules in the hot and cold zones when colliding with the fluid, the particles are generally acted upon by a force opposite to the direction of the temperature gradient, driving the particles to move in the direction opposite to the temperature gradient and deposit on the low-temperature surface. The exhaust gas emitted by diesel generators has a relatively high temperature, while the outdoor room temperature in severe or extremely cold areas is lower, and there is a large temperature difference between the two. Therefore, the thermophoresis effect can be used to purify particles in the exhaust gas of diesel generators. The principle and device of removing tiny particles using the thermophoresis effect are simple and have high operational reliability. Based on this principle, the present application designs a diesel engine carbon particle removal device and a working method in an extremely cold environment.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention discloses a device for removing carbon particles from a diesel engine in an extremely cold environment, comprising a gas distribution box 5, an air inlet surface of the gas distribution box 5 is connected to a flue gas inlet pipe 9, a first air valve 13 is arranged on the flue gas inlet pipe 9, an air outlet surface of the gas distribution box 5 is connected to the left side of a particle deposition device 6, a right side of the particle deposition device 6 is connected to a gravity sedimentation chamber 7, the particle deposition device 6 comprises a box body 65, a plurality of deposition tubes 64 are arranged in the box body 65, an air inlet end of the deposition tube 64 is connected to the gas distribution box 5, an air outlet end of the deposition tube 64 is connected to the gravity sedimentation chamber 7, a flue gas outlet pipe 8 is arranged on the gravity sedimentation chamber 7.

[0022] The size, quantity and arrangement of the deposition tubes 64 in the particle deposition device 6 can be adjusted according to the particle concentration and flue gas flow rate of the treated flue gas; the quantity and arrangement of the flame injection devices 63 in the particle deposition device 6 can be adjusted according to the actual carbon deposition combustion conditions.

[0023] The air inlet surface of the gas distribution box 5 is connected to the air outlet end of the air duct 11, and the air outlet end of the air duct 11 is connected to the air layer pump 1, and the air pump 1 should be able to adapt to the extremely cold working environment of -40°C. The air duct 11 is provided with a second air valve 4, and the particle deposition device 6 is provided with a flame injection device 63, which is connected to the combustion tank 3 provided outside the particle deposition device 6 through the fuel pipeline 12, and the fuel tank 3 sends the fuel to the flame injection device 63 through the fuel pipeline 12 for combustion. The front and rear sides of the box body 65 are respectively provided with an air intake fan 61 and a louver air outlet 62.

[0024] Pressure sensors 14 are respectively provided in the gas distribution box 5 and the gravity settling chamber 7. The two pressure sensors 14 are respectively electrically connected to the control box 2. The control box 2 is respectively electrically connected to the first air valve 13, the second air valve 4, the combustion tank 3 and the air intake fan 61 through the signal line 10 to control the opening and closing of the first air valve 13, the second air valve 4 and the combustion tank 3 and the rotation speed of the air intake fan 61.

[0025] The flue gas inlet duct 9 and the gas distribution box 5 are both provided with insulation layers outside.

[0026] In order to ensure a large temperature gradient in the deposition tube, the flue gas inlet pipe 9 and the gas distribution box 5 should be insulated, and an insulation layer should be provided on the outside, and the insulation material should be high temperature resistant material; the flue gas inlet pipe 9 should be made of high temperature resistant and corrosion resistant materials; the first air valve 13 should be a high temperature fire damper. The box body 65 does not need to be insulated, and in order to ensure a stable temperature field in the tube during particle deposition, the air intake fan 61 is always in working state; the material of the deposition tube 64 should be selected from materials with good thermal conductivity and high temperature resistance.

[0027] The present invention also discloses a working method of a diesel engine carbon particle removal device under an extremely cold environment, comprising the following steps:

[0028] Step 1: The flue gas discharged from the diesel engine enters the flue gas inlet pipe 9, the first air valve 13 is in the open state, the second air valve 4, the air pump 1 and the fuel tank 3 are in the closed state, and the flue gas evenly enters the deposition tube 64 in the particle deposition device 6 through the gas distribution box 5 to achieve the deposition and removal of carbon black particles in the flue gas. After the flue gas leaves the particle deposition device 6, it enters the gravity sedimentation chamber 7, so that the particles entrained by the airflow for the second time are deposited again on the wall of the deposition tube 64;

[0029] Step 2, when the particles in the deposition tube 64 are deposited to a certain thickness, and the pressure difference signal fed back by the pressure sensor 14 reaches the set pressure difference value, the control box 2 controls the opening of the second air valve 4, and the control box 2 controls the closing of the first air valve 13; at the same time, the air pump 1 and the fuel tank 3 are turned on, and the fuel enters the flame injection device 63, and at the same time, the control box 2 adjusts the speed of the intake fan 61 to ensure the full combustion of the fuel.

[0030] Step three, after the flame injection device 63 has been working for a period of time, the control box 2 receives the pressure difference signal fed back by the pressure sensor 14, and closes the fuel tank 3, the air pump 1 and the air valve 4 after reaching the set value, and the first air valve 13. To ensure a uniform temperature field in the deposition tube array, the control box 2 adjusts the speed of the air intake fan 61. At this time, the particle deposition device 6 restarts the particle removal work.

[0031] In the present invention, while the control box 2 controls the opening of the second air valve 4, the first air valve 13 can also be in an open state. At this time, the particles in the flue gas can be removed by high-temperature re-combustion, and the other steps remain unchanged. In addition, when the present invention is actually used, two sets of devices can be set up, one for backup and the other for use. When one set of equipment fuel tank 3 is working, the other set continues to remove particles, so that the diesel engine can work uninterruptedly.

[0032] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
