Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of internal combustion engines, and in particular relates to a combustion chamber of a hydrogen internal combustion engine. Background Art

[0002] The cylinder head, cylinder wall and base of the hydrogen internal combustion engine are combined to form a combustion chamber. The top of the cylinder head is provided with an intake channel and an exhaust channel, and the intake end and the exhaust end are connected to the combustion chamber. The hydrogen internal combustion engine is also provided with a hydrogen injector. Hydrogen is used as a fuel and burns with an air / fuel mixture in the combustion chamber to generate a large amount of heat used as driving energy. The combustion chamber is a device in which fuel or propellant burns to generate high-temperature combustion gas. Others cannot work under high temperature, high load, variable working conditions, corrosive environment, combustion in high-speed airflow and lean oil mixture. In order to improve the performance of the engine, the existing technology mostly adopts the direct injection form of injecting fuel directly into the combustion chamber, and the combustion chamber mostly chooses a wedge-shaped structure with a large surface area ratio. Any slight changes in the design of the structure, volume, shape, position of the spark plug, etc. of the combustion chamber can significantly change the output power of the engine.

[0003] Hydrogen has a high calorific value, low specific heat, fast flame propagation speed, and is easy to ignite and burn. If hydrogen combustion is not well controlled, it will lead to rapid exothermic reaction and abnormal combustion. Therefore, it is considered to control the combustion speed of hydrogen fuel in the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine by changing the shape and structural parameters of the combustion chamber to reduce NOx emissions.
