Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] With the promotion of double carbon policy, the energy structure in the global range gradually transforms to low carbon, green and renewable energy. Hydrogen is considered as one of the most potential zero carbon fuels due to its clean and efficient combustion characteristics. In the field of hydrogen combustion engine, the main hydrogen fuel supply modes are intake port injection and cylinder direct injection. Cylinder direct injection has the characteristics of high charging efficiency and flexible injection strategy, but it needs to match high injection pressure, so the manufacturing cost is high, the system complexity is high and the requirements for injector durability and safety are high, so the practical application is difficult. In contrast, the hydrogen injection pressure of intake port is low, so the structure is simple, the transformation cost is low, and the existing injection device can be used, but it has the problems of backfire and low charge coefficient.

[0003] Research finds that the main reason for backfire problem is caused by high temperature hot spot in cylinder, residual exhaust gas and high hydrogen residue in air duct. In order to reduce the backfire risk and the influence of air duct gas jet expansion on engine intake blockage, it is necessary to reduce the hydrogen residue in the air duct while ensuring the hydrogen introduction and fresh air introduction capacity in the cylinder. The existing hydrogen nozzle is fixed in volume, and under the premise that the injector structure and injection pressure and injection duration are constant, the hydrogen injection amount is easily affected by the intake port pressure and the cylinder pressure. Therefore, even if the injection pressure and duration of the supply end are constant, the actual hydrogen injection amount of the injector will change, especially when the injection time is adjusted, the hydrogen injection amount of the injector will deviate greatly from the design value.

[0029] The fixed gas chamber comprises a base 7 and a gas flow channel 3, wherein the rear end of the gas flow channel 3 is communicated with a hydrogen supply device 14, and the front end of the gas flow channel 3 is communicated with the rear end of the volume-variable chamber 2;

[0030] The intermittent motion module is installed on the base and connected with the rear end of the volume-variable chamber 2, and is used for pushing the volume-variable chamber 2 to inhale and exhale;

[0033] When the half-cone angle θ of the tapered pipe section is small, the flow direction of the gas flow in the pipe section changes gently, which can effectively reduce the generation of gas flow separation and vortex, thereby reducing the flow resistance. The relationship between the length L of the tapered pipe section and the large-end diameter D, the small-end diameter d and the half-cone angle θ is When designing, θ and L can be selected according to the allowed space and the gas flow characteristics to balance the flow resistance and the pipe section size.
