Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of engine technology, and in particular relates to a combustion heat flow control method and its application in an opposed two-stroke engine. Background Technology
[0002] Compared to traditional four-stroke engines, opposed two-stroke engines double the power frequency. The elimination of the cylinder head and valve train results in a more compact structure and reduced weight, leading to their widespread use as power sources in both military and civilian applications. However, the increased power frequency eliminates the cooling system's cooling pathway through the cylinder head, resulting in higher combustion temperatures and increased thermal load within the engine cylinders. Simultaneously, the "one-sided intake, one-sided exhaust" scavenging process in direct-flow scavenging mode means that the exhaust port and piston are subjected to high-frequency, high-temperature working fluid scouring without adequate cooling from the fresh impulse. Therefore, opposed piston two-stroke engines suffer from excessive thermal load on the exhaust port and piston, making them prone to overheating and erosion.
[0003] Excessive heat load on the exhaust side is mainly caused by uneven heat flow distribution within the cylinder of an opposed two-stroke engine. In the "opposed piston + direct scavenging" operating mode, the exhaust side is constantly in contact with high-temperature combustion gases during combustion and scavenging, meaning that combustion heat is concentrated primarily on the exhaust side. This leads to increased temperature of structural components and a greater susceptibility to ablation failures. Furthermore, with the continuous improvement in engine performance, higher combustion temperatures result in significantly increased heat transfer losses, making improved thermal efficiency a critical issue that urgently needs to be addressed.
[0004] Given the inherent structural characteristics of opposed two-stroke engines, including symmetrical piston arrangement and combustion in both combustion chambers, there are currently no effective methods for dissipating heat accumulation on the combustion walls, resulting in persistently high heat loads on key exhaust-side components. Heat flow distribution is closely related to flame development; the flame's spatial distribution determines both heat load and overall engine thermal efficiency. Traditional enclosed combustion chambers cannot achieve directional guidance of fuel-air mixtures and flames in the spatial field. Combustion chamber insulation technology is widely used to improve thermal efficiency. However, current technology focuses too broadly on the selection of insulation areas, lacking precise implementation of specific insulation measures. For example, insulating the entire piston, especially due to a lack of understanding of the flame's spatial distribution, often results in low heat transfer loss in the selected insulation area, failing to achieve the desired thermal efficiency improvement. The combustion chamber configuration significantly affects in-cylinder spray development and airflow organization, thus determining flame development and combustion heat release processes; therefore, the combustion chamber configuration is crucial and requires reasonable parametric design. For the purpose of guiding heat flow in a directional manner, the existing parameterization methods for the combustion chamber of opposed piston two-stroke engines can only determine the relevant linear size range such as the diameter of the inner and outer chambers. They lack a systematic construction of the combustion chamber configuration and effective separation of independent variables, which also delays the design and optimization process.
[0005] In summary, existing opposed two-stroke engines have symmetrical piston arrangements and fuel injection combustion in both combustion chambers. The heat accumulation on the exhaust side piston and port cannot be dissipated, and excessive heat load can easily lead to burning failure. The current heat insulation technology is too crude in the selection of heat insulation areas and the heat insulation measures are not refined enough, which restricts the improvement of engine thermal efficiency.
[0006] In view of this, there is an urgent need to develop an in-cylinder combustion heat flow control method to effectively solve the problem of excessive heat load in opposed piston two-stroke engines and improve thermal efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0064] The opposed two-stroke engine provided by this invention employs the combustion heat flow control method described above for in-cylinder heat flow regulation. This invention develops a novel combustion heat flow control method and an opposed two-stroke engine. It features an asymmetric combustion chamber design, with an improved double-flow structure for the intake-side piston and a flat-top structure for the exhaust-side piston, injecting fuel only into the intake space. It incorporates a flame development and heat insulation coupling design, more precisely selecting the heat insulation area based on the flame's spatial distribution characteristics, and meticulously and differentially designing different combinations of heat insulation schemes for different heat transfer parameters. Simultaneously, it considers the in-cylinder combustion process to determine the optimal scheme for flame development and heat insulation coupling design. It also employs a structural parameterization design based on heat flow directional guidance, adjusting combustion chamber parameters to actively control heat flow throughout the entire space. Combined with its own structural features of eliminating the cylinder head and intake / exhaust valves, the opposed two-stroke engine provided by this invention, applying the aforementioned combustion heat flow control scheme, exhibits high efficiency, high compactness, and high reliability.
[0065] Therefore, the combustion heat flow control method and its application in an opposed two-stroke engine described above have the following beneficial effects:
[0066] I. Asymmetric Combustion Chamber Design: ① The intake-side piston features an improved dual-flow configuration, with a long and full outer chamber and a short and gentle inner chamber. This achieves bidirectional flow of fuel against the outer chamber wall and unidirectional flow diffusion within the inner chamber, improving air utilization throughout the combustion chamber, accelerating fuel-air mixing, and shortening the combustion duration. ② The exhaust side uses a flat-top piston that injects fuel only into the intake space, reducing the concentrated heat flow area on the exhaust-side piston and lowering the thermal load on structural components. ③ The asymmetric combustion system design ensures that the exhaust-side temperature is significantly lower than that of the symmetric combustion system, achieving thermal rebalancing of the two pistons and solving problems such as piston and port erosion on the exhaust side of the opposed two-stroke engine.
[0067] II. Flame Development and Thermal Insulation Coupling Design: ① Based on the distribution characteristics of the flame in the spatial field, the thermal insulation area can be selected more accurately, ensuring high-intensity thermal insulation for key high-heat-transfer areas to reduce heat loss and improve heat-work conversion efficiency, while preserving the heat diffusion capacity of non-critical low-heat-transfer areas to reduce the overall heat load; ② Based on clarifying the influence of thermal insulation coating characteristic parameters on wall heat transfer, different combinations of thermal insulation schemes can be finely designed for different heat transfer parameters of the selected thermal insulation area to achieve more efficient thermal insulation; ③ Based on the near-wall heat flux density, combined with fluid-structure interaction and thermo-mechanical interaction calculations, the characteristics of wall temperature and thermal stress changes can be further explored to truly obtain the heat load effect of in-cylinder heat transfer on the wall; ④ Thermal insulation also takes into account the in-cylinder combustion process. After taking thermal insulation measures, multiple rounds of feedback iteration are performed to obtain the combustion and heat load characteristics. The final determined optimal design scheme for flame development and thermal insulation coupling can achieve the optimal comprehensive performance of thermal insulation, heat load, and combustion.
[0068] III. Structural parameterization design based on heat flow directional guidance: ① It enables rapid determination of the combustion chamber structure with minimal individual variables, and the connection between the inner and outer chambers largely realizes the individual parameterization of the inner and outer chambers, simplifying complex problems; ② It focuses on analyzing and adjusting the combustion chamber structural parameters to actively control the combustion heat flow in the entire space, and determines that the inner chamber elevation angle, outer chamber elevation angle, and outer chamber outlet angle are the most critical influencing parameters. Optimization of the inner chamber elevation angle ensures the expansion of the inner chamber space, allowing the flame to roll outward and reducing the inner chamber heat load; further optimization of the outer chamber elevation angle ensures that the flame no longer develops against the wall, significantly reducing the wall heat flow and lowering the outer chamber heat load; further optimization of the outer chamber outlet angle successfully transports the heat flow from the top of the outer chamber to the bottom of the outer chamber, achieving efficient optimization for the purpose of directional guidance of combustion heat flow; ③ The established structural parameterization design serves the rapid design and optimization of the combustion system, which can accelerate the iterative update of opposed two-stroke engines.
[0069] Fourth, by combining its structural features such as eliminating the cylinder head and intake and exhaust valves, the opposed two-stroke engine provided by this invention, which applies the aforementioned combustion heat flow control scheme, has high efficiency, high compactness, and high reliability.

[0146] In addition to the aforementioned in-cylinder combustion heat flow control method, this embodiment also provides an opposed two-stroke engine that uses this control method for heat flow regulation.

[0147] Example 1
[0148] A method for controlling in-cylinder combustion heat flux
[0149] (1) Asymmetric combustion chamber design:
[0150] Based on GT-Power software, taking a specific type of opposed two-stroke engine as an example, boundary conditions are calculated, including intake and exhaust parameters, fuel injection parameters, etc., to provide for subsequent three-dimensional calculations.
[0151] A CFD three-dimensional simulation model of a opposed two-stroke engine was established using Fire software. Specifically, the spray dispersion model was the Wave model, the evaporation and turbulence models were the Dukowicz model and the k-zeta-f model, respectively, and the combustion model was the ECFM-3Z model. Optical testing experiments were conducted simultaneously, and the data obtained were used to calibrate the simulation process.
[0152] Different combustor configurations were designed in Creo software and imported into Fire software. Combustion simulation calculations were then performed using the calibrated model to support the optimization of the combustor configuration design. All other initial boundary conditions remained consistent. Combustion process simulation calculations were performed on different combustor configurations, including double-shell symmetrical combustors, double-flow symmetrical combustors, double-flow + shell asymmetrical combustors, double-flow + guide-flow asymmetrical combustors, and double-flow + flat-top asymmetrical combustors, focusing on high-temperature flames and heat flux distribution. Specific details are as follows: Figure 1As shown, for symmetrical combustion chambers, both the intake and exhaust pistons exhibit corresponding high-temperature heat flow distributions. For asymmetrical combustion chambers, the clamshell exhaust piston also exhibits a large near-wall high-temperature region. For a dual-flow + guide-flow asymmetrical combustion chamber, to reduce the thermal load on the exhaust piston, fuel is injected only on the dual-flow intake piston side, and the exhaust piston is only equipped with grooves for guiding the flow, i.e., transporting the fuel drawn out of the outer chamber of the dual-flow piston towards the center of the combustion chamber. However, it was found that a more concentrated high-temperature distribution exists at the groove guidance area. For dual-flow + flat-top combustion chambers, the high-temperature heat flow distribution on the exhaust piston side is significantly reduced.
[0153] Based on the above results, the design concept of an asymmetric combustion chamber, featuring an improved dual-flow structure for the intake piston and a flat-top structure for the exhaust piston, was confirmed. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the intake side employs a dual-flow structure. After the fuel hits the ridge, it forms a clockwise flow within the inner chamber and distributes towards the near end of the injector, solving the problem of uneven fuel-air distribution that a single injector cannot handle. It also facilitates the transport of heat from the wall to free space. The traditional dual-flow configuration is improved by designing a shorter and gentler inner chamber and a longer and fuller outer chamber. This achieves bidirectional fuel flow after impacting the outer chamber wall and unidirectional diffusion within the inner chamber, improving air utilization throughout the entire space and accelerating the fuel-air mixing rate. Simultaneously, the larger concave radius of the outer chamber ensures that the fuel is primarily distributed on the intake piston side, with the high-temperature heat flow relatively far from the exhaust piston. Considering the unique opposed piston structure of the opposed two-stroke engine, a side-mounted injection method is adopted. To effectively channel the exhaust heat flow, fuel is injected only onto the intake piston side. Figure 4 In (a), (c), and (b), (d), compared to a symmetrical combustion chamber, the heat flux density on the exhaust piston side of an asymmetrical combustion chamber is significantly reduced, such as... Figure 5 In (a) and (b), the instantaneous and total heat transfer also decreased significantly.
[0154] (2) Coupled design of flame development and thermal insulation:
[0155] Based on GT-Power software, taking a real opposed two-stroke engine as an example, boundary conditions such as temperature and pressure are calculated and provided for three-dimensional calculation.
[0156] A CFD 3D simulation model of an opposed two-stroke engine, including intake and exhaust ducts, was established using Fire software. The inclusion of intake and exhaust ducts allows for more accurate thermal boundary conditions of the combustion chamber walls. Specifically, the spray dissipation model used the Wave model, the evaporation and turbulence models used the Dukowicz model and the k-zeta-f model, respectively, and the combustion model used the ECFM-3Z model. Simultaneously, optical tests of spray and flame development were conducted on basic experimental rigs such as constant-volume incendiary bombs, and the obtained data were used to calibrate the simulation process.
[0157] Different combustion chamber wall configurations were designed in Creo software and imported into Fire software. Through further improvements to the dual-flow combustion chamber and the matching of coupled fuel injection and intake strategies, active flame guidance and efficient, rapid combustion in the space field were achieved. Figure 6 As shown, the active transport of the flame to the center of the combustion chamber is achieved through the entrapment of the inner and outer chambers. Further analysis of the heat transfer process from the working fluid to the wall surface is conducted, extracting the near-wall temperature field and convective heat transfer coefficient. Based on the distribution of the near-wall temperature field and convective heat transfer coefficient in different regions of the combustion chamber, the principle is to reduce heat loss and improve heat-work conversion efficiency by insulating key components, while preserving heat diffusion capacity and reducing overall heat load in non-critical components. Figure 7 The diagram shows a finely divided insulation zone. Specifically, low heat transfer zone C is left uninsulated, while high heat transfer zones B and A are insulated. The refined insulation measures include: firstly, combining simulation calculations and optical testing to clarify the impact of insulation coating characteristic parameters such as coating thickness, insulation material, surface roughness, and porosity on wall heat transfer, while also considering their reverse effect on combustion. Combustion is characterized by combustion efficiency, indicated work, and indicated thermal efficiency. Different groups of insulation measures are designed, and their specific insulation effects are analyzed. Based on this, a preliminary insulation scheme is determined: the insulation measure with the highest insulation capacity is selected for zone A, where the near-wall heat flux is higher, followed by zone B, where the near-wall heat flux is lower.
[0158] Using the finite element software Ansys, the near-wall temperature field and convective transfer coefficient field obtained from in-cylinder spray combustion calculations are mapped onto the wall as the thermal boundary for calculating the wall temperature field. At the same time, the temperature field calculation model is verified through wall temperature measurement experimental data, and the wall temperature and heat flow characteristic parameters under the original conditions and with different insulation measures are obtained, clarifying the heat transfer characteristics before and after insulation.
[0159] Furthermore, using the wall temperature field as the boundary condition for calculating the wall thermal stress and strain field, thermo-mechanical coupled stress field calculations were performed on the combustion chamber components to obtain the original stress and strain distribution under different insulation measures, thus clarifying the thermal load characteristics before and after insulation.
[0160] Based on the above, different insulation schemes are comprehensively evaluated using thermal insulation performance, heat load characteristics, and combustion performance. Multiple iterations are conducted, with the optimal overall performance of these three factors used as the evaluation criterion. Finally, the best scheme for the coupled design of flame development and thermal insulation is determined. The overall process is as follows: Figure 8 As shown.
[0161] (3) Structural parameterization based on heat flow directional guidance:
[0162] The combustion chamber of a opposed two-stroke engine is formed by a shared space on the tops of the intake and exhaust pistons. The asymmetric combustion chamber provided by this invention features improved dual-flow and flat-top pistons on the intake and exhaust sides, respectively. Taking the intake piston as an example... Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the combustion chamber length is denoted as L, the inner chamber throat diameter as L1, and the inner chamber elevation angle as θ. a The radius of the inner chamber recess arc is denoted as R1, the diameter of the outer chamber throat is denoted as L2, and the outer chamber elevation angle is denoted as θ. b The radius of the outer chamber recess arc is denoted as R2, and the outer chamber outlet angle is denoted as θ. c The height of the ridge at the connection between the inner and outer rooms is denoted as H.
[0163] By changing any of the aforementioned parameters in several sets, several uniquely determined combustion chamber structures can be obtained. Assuming the total volume of the combustion chamber remains constant, θ a θ b and θ c As a core independent variable, its allocation allows for the proactive control of the distribution characteristics of flame and heat flux within the combustion chamber. The following section will detail the effects of parametrically designed structural variables on the spatial directional guidance of combustion heat flux, using spatial heat flux distribution as a performance indicator:
[0164] Specifically, select θ a Taking the relevant internal room parameters as the research object, the external room parameters and the internal room volume remain unchanged, θ a L1 is the active variable, and L2 and R1 are the passive variables. For example... Figure 11 As shown in (a), θ a When θ is relatively small, L1 is longer and R1 remains essentially constant. In this case, the flame and heat flow develop close to the inner chamber wall, resulting in a smaller vortex space after the flow splits at the ridge, which leads to a higher heat load on the inner chamber wall. Conversely, θ... a When the value is large, L1 is shorter and the inner chamber is fuller. At this time, the swirling space after the fuel impacts the arc ridge is larger, the flame development space is sufficient and it can swirl outwards, and the heat load of the inner chamber is reduced accordingly.
[0165] Select the optimal room parameter from the above steps, θ b The study focuses on the relevant external chamber parameters, while keeping the internal chamber parameters and external chamber volume constant, θ b L1 is the active variable, and L2 and R2 are the passive variables. For example... Figure 11 As shown in (b) in the figure, θ b When θ is smaller, L2 is larger and R2 is slightly increased. At this point, the flame and heat flow develop close to the outer wall, and the oil jet is in contact with air on only one side, which is not conducive to the diffusion and mixing of oil and gas, and will also bring a high heat load to the outer wall. Conversely, θ b When the size is large, L2 is shorter and the outer chamber is fuller. At this time, there is basically no phenomenon of flame and heat flow sticking to the wall. The space above and below the oil jet is sufficient, the flame develops more evenly and is far away from the wall, and the heat load on the outer chamber wall is reduced accordingly.
[0166] Select the optimal inner and outer chamber parameters from the two steps mentioned above, denoted by θ.c The study focuses on parameters related to the interior and exterior chambers, with most parameters remaining constant. θ c As active variables, L and θ b R2 and R2 are dependent variables. For example... Figure 11 As shown in (c), θ c When θ is smaller, L and R2 decrease, and at this time, due to the curvature of the outer chamber, more fuel flows towards the top of the outer chamber, making the top of the combustion chamber a high-heat flow region. Conversely, θ c When the values are large, L and R2 increase, and more fuel flows towards the bottom of the outer chamber, while the heat flow at the top of the outer chamber is successfully transported to the bottom of the outer chamber.
[0167] Example 2
[0168] An opposed two-stroke engine includes a combustion heat flow control method as provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. (See also...) Figure 12 This diagram illustrates the principle of a opposed two-stroke engine to which a combustion heat flow control method according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention is applied. Through an asymmetric combustion chamber design, the intake-side piston adopts an improved double-flow structure, and the exhaust-side piston adopts a flat-top structure, injecting fuel only into the intake-side space. This achieves heat flow rebalancing between the two pistons, reducing the heat concentration area of the exhaust-side piston and lowering the thermal load on structural components. Through flame development and insulation coupling design, the insulation area is more accurately selected based on the flame's spatial distribution characteristics. Different combinations of insulation schemes are finely and differentiated for different heat transfer parameters. The highest insulation capacity is selected for high near-wall heat flow areas, while ordinary insulation capacity is selected for low near-wall heat flow areas, which is beneficial for efficient insulation and improved thermal efficiency. Meanwhile, taking into account the in-cylinder combustion process, the optimal design scheme for flame development and heat insulation coupling can achieve the best comprehensive performance of heat insulation, heat load and combustion. Through structural parameterization design based on heat flow directional guidance, the combustion chamber parameters are adjusted to actively control the heat flow in the entire space, serving the rapid design and optimization of the combustion system. Combined with its structural features of eliminating cylinder head, intake and exhaust valves, etc., the opposed two-stroke engine with the aforementioned combustion heat flow control scheme provided by this invention has high efficiency, high compactness and high reliability.
