[0017] Specifically, Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, an intake passage for a cylinder head of a natural gas engine is installed in the cylinder head of the natural gas engine and connected to the valve air passage, comprising a front intake pipe 1, a middle intake pipe 2 and a rear intake pipe 3, wherein the front intake pipe 1, the middle intake pipe 2 and the rear intake pipe 3 are connected, the front intake pipe 1 and the rear intake pipe 3 are both hollow box-shaped, the middle intake pipe 2 is hollow tube-shaped, the natural gas engine is a six-cylinder engine, the front intake pipe 1 is provided with a first cylinder intake passage 11 and a second cylinder intake passage 12, the middle intake pipe 2 is provided with A three-cylinder intake duct 21 and a four-cylinder intake duct 22, the rear section intake pipe 3 is provided with a five-cylinder intake duct 31 and a six-cylinder intake duct 32, the one-cylinder intake duct 11 to the six-cylinder intake duct 32 respectively correspond to the six cylinders of the six-cylinder engine and are connected thereto, an intake interface 4 is provided on the front section intake pipe 1 corresponding to the position of the one-cylinder intake duct 11, the height dimension of the front section intake pipe 1 is L1, the height dimension of the middle section intake pipe 2 is L2, the height dimension of the rear section intake pipe 3 is L3, and the relationship between the height dimensions is: L3>L1>L2.
[0018] During operation, natural gas and air are mixed and enter through the intake interface, pass through the front intake pipe 1, the middle intake pipe 2 and the rear intake pipe 3 respectively, and then are distributed to the first cylinder intake duct 11, the second cylinder intake duct 12, the third cylinder intake duct 21, the fourth cylinder intake duct 22, the fifth cylinder intake duct 31 and the sixth cylinder intake duct 32, and finally enter the combustion chambers of each cylinder.
[0019] like Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, three schemes are used to compare the Ricardo flow coefficient and Ricardo vortex intensity of each cylinder. K15M-v01 represents the first scheme, and the relationship between the height dimensions is: L3>L2>L1; K15M-v02 represents the second scheme, and the relationship between the height dimensions is: L2>L3>L1, K15M-v01-opt2 represents the third scheme, and the relationship between the height dimensions is: L3>L1>L2. The Ricardo flow coefficient and Ricardo vortex intensity of each cylinder of the three schemes are compared. In the figure, C represents cylinder, C1 represents one cylinder, C3 represents three cylinders, and the number of cylinders is similar. The flow coefficients of schemes K15M-v01 and K15M-v01-opt2 are equivalent. The flow coefficient of scheme v02 is the lowest because the airflow rotates in the main pipe and there are more turning structures. K15M-v01 and K15M-v02 Both schemes have cylinders with relatively low swirl ratios, and their swirl ratio range values are all above 0.24, with relatively large deviations.
