AI Technical Summary
In existing methanol engines, residual methanol vapor after shutdown can easily corrode cylinder liners. Furthermore, existing carbon canister desorption solutions lack real-time detection and quantitative evaluation, leading to decreased adsorption efficiency or failure, and the desorption process is incomplete.
A methanol vapor adsorption device based on negative pressure scavenging is adopted. Methanol vapor is drawn into the activated carbon tank by a vacuum pump. The cumulative adsorption amount is calculated in real time and a desorption trigger signal is generated. Desorption is carried out in combination with a negative pressure environment with medium and high speed operation. The pressure is balanced by an air filter and the desorption process is monitored in real time.
It enables quantitative monitoring of the adsorption unit, avoids methanol vapor leakage caused by adsorption saturation, improves the reliability and safety of the adsorption unit, enhances desorption efficiency and system economy, and provides multi-dimensional assessment of operating status.
