In order to accelerate mixing and avoid boundary layer effect, the crankcase exhaust pipe should be inserted into the exhaust flow, and the direction of the crankcase exhaust pipe outlet is fixed relative to the direction of the exhaust. The temperature control module 3 controls the heating assembly 2, so that the tail gas in the exhaust pipeline 1 is kept at a specified temperature, and the dew point of the diesel engine crankcase tail gas is generally 40 DEG C.

[0036] Specifically, the variable diameter section 12 can effectively adjust the diameter of the pipeline according to the needs, so as to optimize the flow speed and pressure of the exhaust gas and improve the exhaust efficiency. It should be noted that the number of bends of the exhaust pipeline 1 should be as small as possible, the radius of the bends that must be installed should be as large as possible, the inner wall of the exhaust pipeline 1 should be smooth and conductive, should not react with the crankcase pollutants, and the length should be as short as possible.

[0037] On the basis of any one of the above embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the reducing section 12 is a straight pipe section, and a flow meter 6 is arranged at the reducing section 12, and the flow meter 6 is used to detect the exhaust gas flow at the reducing section 12.
