Abstract

The system has a throttle valve (8) in a recirculation line (6) near to a connection point (10) for an air suction line (2). A thermally stable cut-off valve (9) is arranged near a connection point (11) for an exhaust gas manifold (3). An Independent claim is included for a method to control the exhaust gas recirculation system.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Abgasrückführungssystem für Verbrennungsmotoren, insbesondere kleine turbogeladene Dieselmotoren.The invention relates to an exhaust gas recirculation system for internal combustion engines, especially small turbo-charged diesel engines.

Speziell bei kleinen Motoren mit entsprechend kleinen Abgassystemen führt die Anbringung der Abgasrückführungsleitung zu einer erheblichen Vergrößerung des Volumens des Abgassystems. Dies trifft insbesondere dann zu, wenn in die Abgasrückführungsleitung für die zuverlässige Regelung des rückgeführten Abgasmassenstromes ein Regelventil nahe der Anschlußstelle zur Luftansaugleitung und hinter dem Abgaskühler angeordnet ist. Diese Anordnung bietet zwar den Vorteil einer kostengünstigen und zuverlässigen Regelung, hat jedoch zur Folge, daß eine Vergrößerung des Volumens der Abgasleitung um das Volumen der Rückführungsleitung zwischen Drosselventil und Anschlußstelle der Rückführungsleitung einschließlich Abgaskühler an den Abgaskrümmer vergrößert wird. Dies führt bei Volllastbetrieb zu einem verschlechterten dynamischen Verhalten bzw. zu einer Verringerung des Drehmomentes.Especially in the case of small engines with correspondingly small exhaust systems, the Attachment of the exhaust gas recirculation line to a considerable enlargement of the Volume of the exhaust system. This is especially true if in the Exhaust gas recirculation line for the reliable control of the recirculated Exhaust mass flow a control valve near the connection point to the air intake line and is arranged behind the exhaust gas cooler. This arrangement offers has the advantage of a cost-effective and reliable regulation, however Consequence that an increase in the volume of the exhaust pipe by the volume the return line between the throttle valve and the connection point of the Return line including exhaust gas cooler to the exhaust manifold enlarged becomes. This leads to a deteriorated dynamic at full load operation Behavior or a reduction in torque.

Zur Verbesserung des dynamischen Verhaltens wird vorgeschlagen, in die Rückführungsleitung nahe der Anschlußstelle zum Abgaskrümmer ein hitzebeständiges Ventil, insbesondere Absperrventil, einzubauen. Hierdurch kann das Volumen stromaufwärts einer in das Abgassystem integrierten Turbine bei geschlossenem Ansperrventil verringert werden. Bei geschlossenem Absperrventil nähert sich das dynamische Verhalten der Verbrennungskraftmaschine dem einer ohne Abgasrückführung an. Hierdurch wird im Volllastbetrieb der Drehmomentverlauf über der Drehzahl optimiert.To improve dynamic behavior it is suggested in the Return line near the connection point to the exhaust manifold heat-resistant valve, especially shut-off valve. This can the volume upstream of a turbine integrated in the exhaust system closed stop valve can be reduced. With the shut-off valve closed the dynamic behavior of the internal combustion engine approaches that of one without exhaust gas recirculation. As a result, the Torque curve optimized over the speed.

Entsprechend ist im Volllastbetrieb das Absperrventil geschlossen. Accordingly, the shut-off valve is closed in full load operation.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine schematische Anordnung des Abgasrückführungssystems an der Verbrennungskraftmaschine.Fig. 1 shows a schematic arrangement of the exhaust gas recirculation system on the Internal combustion engine.

Die Verbrennungskraftmaschine 1 ist mit einer Luftansaugleitung 2 des Luftansaugsystems verbunden. Im Luftansaugsystem ist ein Kompressor 5 angeordnet, der von der im Abgassystem angeordneten Turbine 4 angetrieben wird. Im Abgassystem ist am Abgaskrümmer 3 eine Anschlußstelle 11 für die Rückführungsleitung 6 vorgesehen, welche an der Anschlußstelle 10 in die Luftansaugleitung 2 mündet. Nahe dieser Anschlußstelle 10 ist das Drosselventil zur Regelung des über die Rückführungsleitung 6 in die Luftansaugleitung 2 gelangenden Massenstromes an Abgas angeordnet. Durch die Anordnung des Drosselventiles 8 hinter dem Abgaskühler 7 wird die Zuverlässigkeit der Regelung des rückgeführten Abgasmassenstromes verbessert. Das zwischen der Turbine 4 und den Auslaßventilen der Verbrennungskraftmaschine 1 stromaufwärts der Turbine befindliche Volumen des Abgassystems ist um das Volumen der Rückführungsleitung zwischen den Anschlußstellen 11 und 10 bzw. bis zum Drosselventil 8 vergrößert. Ein in die Rückführungsleitung 6 integrierter Abgaskühler 7 führt ebenfalls zu einer Vergrößerung des Volumens stromaufwärts der Turbine 4. Im Volllastbetrieb wird dieses Volumen durch das Absperrventil 9 im geschlossenen Zustand erheblich verringert, nämlich auf das Volumen zwischen der Anschlußstelle 11 und dem Absperrventil 9.The internal combustion engine 1 is equipped with an air intake line 2 Air intake system connected. There is a compressor 5 in the air intake system arranged, which is driven by the turbine 4 arranged in the exhaust system becomes. In the exhaust system, there is a connection point 11 for the exhaust manifold 3 Return line 6 is provided, which at the junction 10 in the Air intake line 2 opens. Near this junction 10 is the throttle valve to regulate the return line 6 into the air intake line 2 Arranged mass flow of exhaust gas arranged. By arranging the Throttle valve 8 behind the exhaust gas cooler 7, the reliability of the control of the recirculated exhaust gas mass flow improved. That between the turbine 4 and the exhaust valves of the engine 1 upstream of the Turbine volume of the exhaust system is around the volume of the Return line between the connection points 11 and 10 or to Throttle valve 8 enlarged. An integrated in the return line 6 Exhaust gas cooler 7 also leads to an increase in the volume upstream the turbine 4. In full load operation, this volume is shut off valve 9 in closed state significantly reduced, namely on the volume between the connection point 11 and the shut-off valve 9.

Fig. 2 zeigt den Drehmomentverlauf über der Drehzahl. Die durchgezogene Linie gibt den Drehmomentverlauf für eine kleine turbogeladene Dieselverbrennungskraftmaschine bei Volllastbetrieb mit geschlossenem Absperrventil 9 wieder, die gestrichelte Kurve zeigt den Drehmomentverlauf bei geöffnetem Absperrventil 9. Durch das Schließen des Absperrventiles 9 wird insbesondere auch eine deutliche Verbesserung des maximalen Drehmomentes bei etwa 2.500 Umdrehungen erreicht.Fig. 2 shows the torque curve over the speed. The solid line gives the torque curve for a small turbo charged Diesel internal combustion engine at full load with closed Shut-off valve 9 again, the dashed curve shows the torque curve at open shut-off valve 9. By closing the shut-off valve 9 especially a significant improvement in the maximum torque reached at about 2,500 revolutions.
