Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Methanol has high octane value, low cost, environmental protection, and is widely used in engine alternative fuel selection; high oxygen content improves combustion efficiency and reduces CO and HC emissions; but methanol has high latent heat of vaporization, making it difficult to start the engine, so the exhaust heat can be used to heat the catalytic cracking, and then directly injected into the cylinder through the nozzle, which can effectively utilize the waste heat and reduce the influence of high latent heat of methanol on the cylinder combustion temperature.

[0003] Currently, most of the methanol is added from the intake manifold or mixed with gaseous fuel pipeline, which is not conducive to pipeline processing; direct injection of liquid methanol into the cylinder at too early or too late will result in poor combustion effect; spark-ignition engines can cause knock phenomenon, causing damage to the engine.

[0004] A spark-ignition methanol cracking gas engine is disclosed in Chinese patent application No. "CN202211599644.8", which evaporates methanol and water through an evaporator, applies a methanol cracker for cracking reaction, and mixes methanol cracking gas and air in a gas mixing tank to enter a spark-ignition engine for ignition. It can solve the problems of low and medium load heat efficiency of the original spark-ignition methanol cracking gas engine and high load prone to knock, improve the combustion speed by using plasma at low load, improve the hydrogen production rate by using methanol water vapor cracking and adding hot EGR at medium load, and reduce the tendency of knock and improve the thermal efficiency at high load. However, direct injection of liquid methanol into the cylinder too early will cause fuel wetting, too late will cause uneven mixing of the mixture, and poor combustion effect; at the same time, the engine uses spark-ignition, which can cause knock phenomenon due to sudden increase of local temperature and pressure in the cylinder, which can easily damage the engine cylinder.

The system includes a methanol supply module, a diesel supply module, an engine, a methanol cracking module, and an exhaust gas recirculation module. By controlling the methanol supply module and the diesel supply module, the combustion mode and fuel ratio of the engine can be flexibly controlled to meet the needs of different sailing conditions.

[0006] External exhaust gas recirculation is carried out through the exhaust gas recirculation module to regulate the combustion rate, reduce the combustion rate, prevent the explosion pressure from exceeding the limit and knock; the input methanol is cracked by the methanol cracking module to realize methanol cracking hydrogen-doped combustion, effectively accelerate the combustion rate, and thus realize clean, efficient and controllable combustion of the engine in a wide operating condition range, and effectively alleviate the problem of limited operating conditions.

[0089] The method comprises the following steps:

[0090] S1, measuring the speed and working torque of the engine according to the dynamometer;

[0091] S2, judging the size relationship between the working torque and the rated torque of the engine to determine the working mode of the engine;

[0092] S3, adopting different fuel injection supply strategies according to the working mode of the engine under different loads.

[0093] According to the relationship between the engine working torque and the rated torque, the engine working state is determined, including:

[0094] 1. Engine cold start control:

[0095] Engine cold start refers to the engine starting to work from zero speed;

[0096] Engine low load refers to the engine working torque being less than or equal to the first threshold of the rated torque, i.e. engine working torque ≤ engine rated torque 40%;

[0097] 2. Engine non-cold start control:

[0099] Engine high load refers to the engine working torque being greater than the second threshold of the rated torque, i.e. engine rated torque 70% < engine working torque ≤ engine rated torque 100%.

[0100] When the engine is cold started, the diesel cut-off valve 25 is opened and the methanol cut-off valve 35 is closed;

[0101] The flow rate and flow velocity of diesel are adjusted through the diesel cut-off valve 25.

[0102] When the engine is not cold started, the diesel cut-off valve 25 and the methanol cut-off valve 35 are opened;

[0103] The mass and flow velocity of diesel are adjusted through the diesel cut-off valve 25, and the rate of methanol cracking gas is adjusted through the pressure regulating valve 47.

[0104] High combustion efficiency refers to the thermal efficiency reaching 43.96%, and the nitrogen oxide emission being as low as 0.97g / kW·h, which is superior to Tier III standard.

[0105] The embodiment is specific: methanol is heated and catalytically cracked into methanol cracking gas through a methanol cracking gas device, methanol cracking gas and methanol steam are directly injected into the same coaxial fuel nozzle of the engine, the pressure of the fuel entering the cylinder is adjusted through the pressure regulating valve, which can directly affect the distribution of methanol fuel in the cylinder, make the mixture in the cylinder uniform, and then form better combustion effect; The engine is also less changed, only the structure of the fuel injector is changed, and the engine intake manifold structure is not changed, which is simple in structure and easy to realize. Compared with diesel fuel, burning methanol and cracking gas can effectively reduce the emission of nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons and other pollutants, and improve the combustion efficiency.

[0106] The in-cylinder direct injection compression ignition engine system comprises an engine system 1, a diesel direct injection fuel supply system 2, a methanol direct injection fuel supply system 3 and a methanol cracking gas device 4.

[0107] The engine system 1 comprises an air intake pipe 11, a compressor 12, an air intake stop valve 13, a cylinder 14, a coaxial double-channel fuel nozzle 15, an exhaust pipe 16, an exhaust temperature measuring instrument 17, an exhaust stop valve 18, a supercharger 19 and a rotating shaft 20. Ambient air enters the engine system from the air intake pipe 11, and in-cylinder combustion exhaust gas is discharged from the engine system from the exhaust pipe 16; the compressor 12 and the supercharger 19 can provide the required pressure difference when gas enters or is discharged; the coaxial double-channel fuel nozzle 15 has a double-channel design to meet the requirement of separate injection of diesel and methanol fuel into the cylinder 14; the rotating shaft 20 with a turbine end and a compressor end in a symmetrical design transmits mechanical energy from the turbine end driven by exhaust gas to the compressor end to drive the compressor impeller to rotate at high speed, thereby compressing air to improve engine air intake efficiency.

[0108] The diesel storage bottle 21 can provide diesel fuel; the diesel flow measuring instrument 23 can monitor the real-time injection amount of diesel fuel to observe the difference in in-cylinder combustion conditions under different injection amounts; and the diesel pump 24 provides power for fuel injection.

[0109] The diesel stop valve 25 adjusts the diesel injection amount according to the actual working condition requirement based on the methanol injection amount measured by the measuring instrument, for example, if the actual working condition requirement is greater than the theoretical diesel injection amount, the stop valve opening degree needs to be increased to inject more fuel to meet the working condition requirement, and if the actual working condition requirement is less than the theoretical diesel injection amount, the stop valve opening degree needs to be reduced to inject less diesel to meet the working condition requirement.

[0110] The diesel stored in the diesel storage bottle 21 is pressurized by the diesel pump 24 and injected into the coaxial double-channel fuel nozzle 15 of the cylinder 14.

[0111] The methanol storage bottle 31 can provide methanol fuel; the methanol flow measuring instrument 33 can monitor the real-time injection amount of methanol fuel to observe the difference in in-cylinder combustion conditions under different injection amounts; and the methanol pump 34 provides power for fuel injection.

[0112] Methanol cut-off valve 35 adjusts the amount of methanol injection according to the actual working condition requirements by measuring the amount of methanol injection measured by the meter. For example, if the actual working condition requirement is greater than the theoretical methanol injection amount, the cut-off valve opening needs to be increased to inject more fuel to meet the working condition requirement. If the actual working condition requirement is less than the theoretical methanol injection amount, the cut-off valve opening needs to be reduced to inject less methanol to meet the working condition requirement. The methanol stored in the methanol storage bottle 31 is injected into the methanol cracking gas device 4 through the methanol pump 34. After being heated by the waste heat of the exhaust gas in the methanol cracking gas device 4 and catalyzed by the catalyst laid on the cracking gas heating catalyst pipe 45, the methanol cracking gas mainly generates CO and H2 and vaporized methanol steam, which is injected into the coaxial double-channel fuel nozzle 15 of the cylinder 14 through the methanol cracking gas pipe 48.

[0114] The methanol input end 41 is connected to the methanol fuel supply pipe 32 for injecting methanol into the methanol cracking gas device 4.

[0115] The exhaust gas input end 410 is connected to the exhaust pipe 16 to provide combustion exhaust gas into the cracking gas device 4.

[0116] The exhaust gas output end 42 discharges exhaust gas from the cracking gas device 4. The cracking gas heating catalyst pipe 45 is covered with methanol cracking catalyst. The injected methanol is cracked under the action of the catalyst and the waste heat of the exhaust gas. The cracking gas output end 46 is connected to the methanol cracking gas pipe 48 to inject cracking gas and vaporized methanol steam into the cylinder 14. The baffle 44 is arranged at both ends of the cracking gas heating catalyst pipe 45 to prevent combustion exhaust gas from flowing into the cracking gas heating catalyst pipe 45, affecting the methanol cracking effect.

[0117] Control method of compression ignition diesel micro-injection methanol blending combustion cracking gas engine:

[0118] S1, measure the speed and torque of the engine according to the dynamometer;

[0119] S2, determine the working mode of the engine by judging the size relationship between the engine working torque and the rated torque;

[0120] S3, adopt different fuel injection supply strategies according to different working modes of the engine under different loads.

[0121] Among them, the speed measurement: through the speed sensor built-in the dynamometer, the mechanical signal is converted into an electrical signal to monitor the rotation speed of the engine output shaft, the unit is r / min.

[0122] Torque measurement: dynamometer through the strain gauge on the shaft, when the torque, the strain gauge due to deformation caused by resistance changes, through the wheatstone bridge circuit will change in resistance into a voltage signal, reflecting the shaft shear strain.

[0123] Torque and shear strain conversion formula:

[0124] Wherein, the shear strain, the distance from the measuring point to the center of the circle, unit m, T for torque, unit N.m, G for shear modulus, unit Pa, the section polar moment of inertia, unit m4.

[0125] According to the engine working torque and rated torque size relationship, determine the engine working state:

[0126] Engine cold start refers to the engine starts working from zero speed;

[0127] Engine low load is the engine working torque is less than or equal to the rated torque of the first threshold, that is, the engine working torque ≤ engine rated torque 40%;

[0128] Engine medium load is the engine working torque is greater than the rated torque of the first threshold, less than or equal to the second threshold, that is, engine rated torque 40% < engine working torque ≤ engine rated torque 70%;

[0129] Engine high load is the engine working torque is greater than the rated torque of the second threshold, that is, engine rated torque 70% < engine working torque ≤ engine rated torque 100%.

[0130] The intake pipe 11 is connected to the air supply pipeline.

[0131] According to the engine working state, determine the fuel supply mode:

[0132] When the engine is cold started, open the diesel cut-off valve 25 and close the methanol cut-off valve 35.

[0133] Air is compressed into the intake pipe 11 by the air compressor 12, flows through the intake cut-off valve 13 into the cylinder 14, and is compressed under the reciprocating motion of the engine piston; the diesel in the diesel storage bottle 21 is injected into the nozzle 15 by the diesel pump 24, and then is injected into the cylinder 14 to be compressed and burned in the high compression ratio cylinder pressure environment, and the CO2 and other exhaust emissions generated by the cylinder combustion reaction are introduced into the exhaust pipe 16, and then are discharged to the outside through the turbine 19.

[0134] When the engine is not cold started, the diesel and methanol injection device stop valves 25 and 35 are opened. Air is compressed into the intake passage 11 by the compressor 12, flows into the cylinder 14 through the intake stop valve 13, and the diesel in the diesel storage bottle 21 is injected into the cylinder 14 through the nozzle 15 and is compressed and combusted under the reciprocating motion of the engine piston. The exhaust gas produced by the combustion is guided into the two-end baffle 44 of the methanol cracking device 4 through the exhaust passage 16, is used to heat only the methanol cracking gas pipe 48, does not participate in the combustion reaction process, and is guided out of the outside world through the turbine 19. The exhaust temperature measuring instrument 17 on the exhaust passage 16 measures the exhaust temperature to measure the degree of heating and cracking of the methanol. The methanol in the methanol storage bottle 31 is injected into the methanol cracking gas device 4 through the methanol pump 34, and after the waste heat and the cracking gas heat the catalyst on the catalyst pipe 45, the methanol cracking gas and the vaporized methanol steam flow into the methanol cracking gas pipe 48. The methanol fuel pressure value measured by the pressure detector 49 is used to adjust the pressure regulating valve 47 to meet the fuel demand of different engine loads, and then is injected into the cylinder 14 through the nozzle 15 and is combusted after being ignited by a small amount of diesel injected into the cylinder 14.

[0135] The methanol cracking hydrogen and carbon monoxide cracking gas heating catalyst pipe 45 generally uses a copper-based catalyst (such as TF109 catalyst), and the core component is copper oxide. The catalyst has the characteristics of high activity and high selectivity, is suitable for methanol steam reforming reaction, and can realize high-efficiency conversion of methanol at a temperature of 220 to 260°C.
