Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a testing apparatus, specifically to a land-based full-scale diesel engine exhaust spray testing system. Background Technology
[0002] Diesel engine exhaust temperatures are generally quite high, sometimes exceeding 500℃, and are accompanied by black smoke, which significantly impacts the working environment on ships. Therefore, exhaust spray systems are needed at the end of the exhaust pipes to reduce exhaust temperature and black smoke concentration, thereby improving the living and working conditions for crew members. The cooling and black smoke collection processes of exhaust spray systems involve complex physical processes such as mixing, phase change, and aggregation of high-temperature steam, water, and particles. Experimental research is required to analyze the impact of various parameters on the effectiveness of the exhaust spray system and to verify its effectiveness.
[0003] Currently, most related tests are scaled-down model tests, which cannot realistically simulate the high-temperature multiphase heat transfer and liquid-solid phase interaction at full scale, and cannot accurately evaluate the cooling and soot removal performance of exhaust spray devices. Furthermore, for side exhaust, the exhaust port is generally located on the side near the waterline. After being discharged from the exhaust port, the exhaust impacts the sea surface, which has a significant impact on the exhaust wake; current test devices do not consider this factor. The inclination angle of the side plating affects the direction of the exhaust wake, and the navigation wind also affects the development of the exhaust wake and its infrared characteristics, but corresponding test systems are currently lacking. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a land-based full-scale diesel engine exhaust spray test system. This system can accurately simulate the exhaust conditions of a ship's diesel engine, ensure the consistency between the test system and the actual ship, meet the requirements of diesel engine exhaust spray test, and obtain accurate exhaust spray effect data.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is:
[0006] A land-based full-scale diesel engine exhaust spray test system includes a flue gas generator, an exhaust pipe, a spray cooling system, a side-side simulation structure, a navigation wind simulation device, a wastewater collection pool, and a monitoring mechanism.
[0007] The flue gas generating device includes a diesel engine of the same type as that actually used on ships;

[0013] The monitoring system includes a first temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, a second temperature sensor, a flow meter, a data control box, and a host computer. Two sets of the first and second temperature sensors are installed upstream and downstream of the exhaust spray device, respectively. The second temperature sensor is installed at the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe. The flow meter is installed on the cooling water supply pipeline of the spray cooling system. The data control box receives data from the temperature sensor, pressure sensor, second temperature sensor, and flow meter, and transmits this data to the host computer or mobile terminal. Based on the received data, the data control box controls the operation of the spray cooling system (the data control box collects and converts analog data, transmitting it to the host computer system or mobile terminal via a set Ethernet interface; the data control box also controls the inlet regulating valve on the spray water pipeline).
[0014] According to the above scheme, the size of the simulated structure on the side is no less than three times the diameter of the exhaust pipe, so as to more realistically simulate the hull plate at the exhaust port and make the test results more accurate.
[0015] According to the above scheme, the size of the air outlet of the navigation wind simulation device is more than four times the diameter of the exhaust port in order to make the test results more accurate.
[0016] According to the above scheme, the navigation wind simulation device includes two sets of wind turbines arranged in parallel, each set of wind turbines including two wind turbines in parallel, so as to simulate navigation wind more realistically.
[0017] According to the above scheme, the straight pipe section of the exhaust pipe is a number of exhaust pipe sections with the same length as the exhaust spray device and the same flange interface, so as to more realistically simulate spray cooling and make the test results closer to reality.
[0018] According to the above scheme, there are multiple second temperature sensors, which are respectively installed at the center and around the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe to ensure accurate measurement.
[0019] According to the above scheme, the spray cooling system includes a water supply tank, a spray pump, and an exhaust spray device; water from the water supply tank is pumped into the exhaust spray device through the spray pump to achieve spray cooling of the exhaust pipe; the data control box controls the operation of the spray pump and the exhaust spray device.
[0020] According to the above scheme, the flue gas generating device, exhaust pipe, spray cooling system, side simulation structure, navigation wind simulation device, and wastewater collection pool are placed on the test bench.
[0021] According to the above scheme, the size of the wastewater collection pool shall be no less than 8 times the diameter of the exhaust port.
[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0029] It can achieve 1:1 prototype testing and verification, and ensure that the exhaust temperature, flow rate, composition, etc. are consistent with the actual ship;
[0030] By setting up a simulated structure on the hull side, the interaction between exhaust gas and sea level, hull plating, etc., can be taken into account, making the test results more accurate. Attached Figure Description

[0045] The hull-side simulation structure 4 is used to simulate the hull plating background at the exhaust port of an actual diesel engine. It is located at the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe 2. The hull-side simulation structure 4 is made of steel plate with the same thickness as the actual ship, coated with hull paint, and covered with heat insulation material on the back. In order to more realistically simulate the hull plating at the exhaust port, the size of the hull-side simulation structure 4 is no less than 3 times the diameter of the exhaust pipe 2.

Based on the received data, the data control box 7.1 controls the operation of the spray cooling system (e.g., controlling the inlet regulating valve on the spray water pipeline).
