    专利说明:

    The invention relates to an internal combustion engine having the features of the preamble of claim 1 and a method having the features of the preamble of claim 10.
    In the following, the prior art will be described with reference to the example of a stationary gas engine driving a generator. These have in the rule case between 10 to 24 (usually even many) cylinders, which are each ignited via an antechamber.
    Of course, an as constant as possible rotational speed of the internal combustion engine is desirable, since a speed change is transmitted to a synchronous generator coupled with the synchronous generators in a frequency deviation. Which quality classes there are with respect to maximum frequency deviations is given in the DIN ISO 8528-5.
    Difficulties therefore arise when larger load changes occur. Various measures are then taken to prevent a change in the speed of the internal combustion engine.
    This situation is for example in the so-called island operation. In this case the generator is
    If e.g. The power taken off by the generator suddenly decreases sharply (so-called load rejection), it must be prevented that increases the speed of the internal combustion engine. This can be done by reducing the amount of power supplied to the engine, for example, by closing the throttle valve. This results in a relatively rapid pressure reduction in the intake manifold of the internal combustion engine.
    With large load drops, this fast pressure reduction in the manifold manifold can not be followed quickly enough by the pre-chamber gas supply pressure control.
    Inaccurate pre-chamber gas metering can lead to unstable combustion behavior and thus faulty ignition behavior and deflagrations. The unfavorable pressure differences between the prechamber system and intake manifold cylinders of the combustion engine occurring in a pre-chamber gas supply system can cause erroneous ignition and deflagration. It is thereby made difficult to comply with regulatory safety standards.
    The object of the invention is to provide an internal combustion engine and a method for operating an internal combustion engine, which can offer a reduced safety risk in load shedding.
    With regard to the internal combustion engine, this object is solved by the features of claim 1. With regard to the method, the object is solved by the features of claim 10.
    This is done by providing at least one valve controllable or controllable by means of a control or regulating device as a function of a variable characteristic of a change of a power supplied by the combustion engine to the prechamber supply line for reducing a pressure difference between a prechamber gas supply and the at least one main combustion chamber (4) and / or or by means of which an atrial fuel flow directed through the prechamber feed line to at least one prechamber is at least partially divisible into a volume separate from the at least one prechamber.
    By means of a valve according to the invention, the pressure ratios in the pre-chamber feed can be adapted more quickly to those in the main chamber feed of the internal combustion engine, whereby ignition failure and
    Deflagrations become significantly less likely. In addition, there is an improved control, in particular the speed of the internal combustion engine during load drops.
    The at least one main combustion chamber may preferably be supplied with a mixture of air and fuel. The at least one prechamber may preferably be supplied with fuel, wherein a mixture will only result in the at least one prechamber by mixing with the mixture of the at least one main combustion chamber. However, it is also conceivable to supply even the at least one pre-chamber a fuel-air mixture.
    The invention can preferably be used in gas engines. The invention may preferably be used in stationary internal combustion engines. Internal combustion engines according to the invention may preferably have from 10 to 24 (usually even many) cylinders as main combustion chambers.
    Further advantageous embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
    It may be provided that the volume separated from the at least one prechamber is an intake manifold of the internal combustion engine. Since the excess fuel in the prechamber supply in this embodiment can be supplied directly to the intake manifold of the internal combustion engine, this allows a particularly rapid adjustment of the pressure ratios. Alternatively or in addition to the discharge of the pressure into the distributor space, however, an opening into the environment may also be provided.
    The intake manifold is that part of the internal combustion engine which represents the supply of the fuel-air mixture to the at least one main combustion chamber.
    In an embodiment in which the antechamber fuel flow is derivable by opening the at least one valve into a separate volume from the at least one antechamber, it may be preferable for the at least one valve to be a check valve. In order to maintain a certain pressure difference between distribution manifold (intake manifold) and prechamber supply here also spring-loaded valve, in particular check valve, are used.
    In this embodiment, the valve may also be designed as a controlled or regulated valve.
    In a second embodiment, it may be provided that a pre-chamber fuel stream directed through the pre-chamber supply line to the at least one pre-chamber can be limited, preferably inhibited, by at least partially blocking the at least one valve.
    It can preferably be provided that the at least one valve can be controlled or regulated by means of the control or regulating device as a function of a value of a load change. This value of a load change, in particular a load dump, can be provided to the controller in various ways. If the internal combustion engine is connected to a generator which in turn supplies one or more electrical consumers, a load drop can be detected directly at the consumers and communicated to the control device.
    However, since it is customary to equip generic internal combustion engines with sensors for the detection of a wide variety of measured values, it can also be provided that the control or regulating device itself calculates the amount of load changes, in particular load drops.
    It may be provided that a pressure regulating valve or a pressure control valve is provided in the prechamber supply line, preferably on the side of the at least one valve remote from the at least one prechamber. It may be particularly preferably provided that a comparative pressure control valve is provided, which is connected via a membrane and a breathing line to the distribution chamber (intake manifold) of the internal combustion engine.
    However, it is also conceivable to implement an inventive valve with a pressure control valve or pressure control valve integrally and to be controlled or regulated by the control or regulating device.
    Further advantages and details of the invention will become apparent from the single figure and the associated description of the figures.
    The figure symbolically represents an internal combustion engine 1 according to the invention.
    This internal combustion engine 1 has cylinders in which the main combustion chambers 4 are arranged. For the sake of clarity, however, only two main combustion chambers 4 are shown. Each of the main combustion chambers 4 is ignited by an antechamber 2 in this embodiment. This is also the sake of clarity, only one of the main combustion chambers 4 located.
    The embodiment of a combustion engine 1 according to the invention described herein can be used to drive a generator for power generation. Again, this is not shown for clarity. Generally, the engine 1 may be connected to any load.
    There is a fuel source to provide fuel F. As a result, there is a first branch which is essentially formed by the prechamber supply line 3 and serves to supply the at least one prechamber 2. A second branch is essentially formed by the main mixture supply line 15. At the beginning of the main mixture supply line 15 is a mixture preparation device 14, in which a mixture of fuel F and air A is produced. This mixture is then fed to a compressor 16 of a turbocharger. Subsequently, in the main mixture supply pipe 15, a mixture cooler 17 and a throttle valve 19 are arranged. The main mixture supply line 15 then opens into the intake manifold 7, from which the main combustion chambers 4 are charged with the compressed, cooled fuel-air mixture.
    After the fuel reservoir, a comparative pressure control valve 8 is arranged in the prechamber supply line 3. This is connected via a breathing line 9 to the main mixture supply line 15 and the intake manifold 7, respectively. The pressure control valve 8 has a spring loaded diaphragm, so that the pressure in the prechamber supply line 3 is controlled to a pressure of a defined pressure difference to the main mixture supply line 15 and the manifold space (intakemanifold) 7, respectively. The pressure in the pre-chamber gas supply is selected in relation to the supply to the cylinders, at least at the time when major load changes occur
    The pressure control valve 8 is in this embodiment purely mechanical nature, whereby it can not react fast enough in practice with rapid load changes, in particular load shedding, and for some time there is an excessive pressure in the pre-chamber supply line 3. In addition, in the prechamber supply line 3 an orifice 12 is arranged (English: "gas orifice", even with liquid fuel F this is at the location of the orifice 12 is usually gaseous vor).
    The valves 6.1 and 6.2 will be described below.
    After the orifice 12, the prechamber supply line 3 is split into several branches to serve each individual prechamber 2. This part of the prechamber feed line 3 is usually referred to as prechamber rail or short tail. Again, only one of the branches is completely drawn so as not to affect the clarity of the figure.
    The prechamber feed line 3 or rail is connected to the at least one prechamber 2 via at least one prechamber valve 11. The Vorkammerventile 11 are formed in this case as passive check valves. The aforementioned slight excess pressure in the prechamber supply line 3, defined by the
    Orifice 12, at the time that the cylinders are at a relatively low pressure, causes valves 11 to open and fuel F to flow into the prechamber.
    If too much pressure is present in the prechamber feed 3, too much fuel F flows into the at least one prechamber 2, which causes the initially mentioned ignition failure.
    This is prevented by the valves 6.1,6.2, in this case check valves. It should be noted that the two valves 6.1 and 6.2 shown in the figure represent two different embodiments, which in combination but can also be used alone.
    The valve 6.1 is connected to a control or regulating device 5. These are transmitted via the interface 22 characteristic data, which indicate changes in a provided by the internal combustion engine 1 power. These characteristics may be, for example, measurement data from sensors present on the internal combustion engine 1, such as boost pressure sensors, cylinder pressure sensors and / or speed sensors. Control and regulating devices 5 can also be communicated via interface 22 to any sensors and characteristic data available to electrical consumers.
    If the control or regulating device 5 detects a load shedding, the valve 6.1 is caused to block the prechamber supply line 3.
    The valve 6.1 remains closed until more gas is needed in the prechamber 4 again. As a criterion can be used, whether the pressure difference has settled again in a desired range.
    In the specific case, the valve 6.1 can be controlled on the basis of a value of a power loss, ie the difference between the power of the internal combustion engine 1 before and after the load shedding. This value is obtained from the signal of a speed sensor (not shown), using the following formula:
    In this case, ΔΡ denotes the value of the load shedding, / the moment of inertia and wsowie ^ the angular velocity or the derivative thereof.
    The valve 6.2 is designed as a check valve. For the purpose of discharging at least part of the antechamber fuel flow into the main mixture supply line 15 and thus into the intake manifold 7, there is provided an additional connection line in which the valve 6.2 is arranged. For the purposes of this patent specification, the prechamber feed side portion of this connection line is considered part of the prechamber feed line. Similarly, the main chamber feed side portion of the connection line is considered part of the skin mix supply line 15.
    If no valve 6.2 is used in such a connection line in an embodiment of the invention, the connection line itself will not be necessary.
    The valve 6.2 designed as a check valve, for example, is loaded in this drop spring so as not to interfere with the pressure difference between the prechamber supply line 3 and the main mixture supply line 15, which is to be constantly in operation. The valve 6.2 is thus blocked until the pressure difference is zugroß. Then the valve 6.2 opens and a pressure equalization takes place.
    The design of the valve 6.2 as a non-return valve is preferred because this prevents backflow of the mixture for the cylinders into the prechamber gas supply line.
    Instead of a passive pre-chamber gas supply as in this embodiment, an active one may also be used.
    After the combustion of the fuel-air mixture in the cylinders, the resulting exhaust gas is collected in an exhaust pipe 20 and exhausted by means of an exhaust or the like. In the exhaust pipe 20, a turbine 21 of the aforementioned turbocharger is arranged. The turbine 21 is connected by a shaft to the compressor 16 of the turbocharger.
