    专利说明:

    The present invention relates to an internal combustion engine according to the features of the preamble of claim 1 and a method for starting an internal combustion engine.
    It is known to provide internal combustion engines with a turbocharger, a mixture cooler and a Umblaseventil. The Umblaseventil can be opened by a control or regulating unit. This permits a partial flow of a fuel mixture intended for combustion to bypass a compressor of the turbocharger. In this way, the boost pressure and ultimately the performance of the internal combustion engine can be controlled or regulated with relatively short reaction times. Of course, the Umblaseventil is closed when full power or an increase in speed is necessary. In the prior art, the Umblaseventil was therefore kept closed during the startup.
    The disadvantage here is that the compressor of the turbocharger and the mixture cooler form a large "dead volume", which must first be filled before the internal combustion engine can start. In other words, the fuel mixture has to travel a relatively long distance, while still obstructing flow obstacles, such as the compressor of a turbocharger and any mixture cooler. This leads to a relatively long start time of the internal combustion engine.
    Object of the present invention is to provide an internal combustion engine and a method for starting an internal combustion engine, wherein the start time is shortened.
    With respect to the internal combustion engine, this is achieved by the features of claim 1. With regard to the method, this object is solved by the features of claim 9.
    By the invention, the fuel gas can be brought in the fastest possible way in a designated area for combustion, such as a cylinder.
    For starting, the internal combustion engine is first towed by an external drive. This creates a suction, which is responsible for the transport of the fuel mixture. Once the fuel mixture reaches the intended range for the ignition, the internal combustion engine no longer needs to be towed, but runs on its own.
    Now, the effect of at least one turbocharger begins, whereby the fuel mixture is no longer sucked in only by the suction effect of the piston-cylinder unit, but is also actively transported by the compressor of at least one turbocharger.
    The invention is based on the finding that the time in which the transport of the fuel mixture is effected only by the suction effect of the piston-cylinder unit, can be shortened by the Umblaseventil is opened. The path over the Umblaseventil is for the fuel mixture, firstly shorter and secondly associated with less resistance.
    The fuel mixture reaches the combustion zone faster and thus starts faster. It should be noted that the direction of the fuel mixture flow through the Umblaseventil reverses, as soon as the effect of at least one turbocharger begins. This is a simple consequence of the fact that after the compressor, a higher pressure than before the compressor. From this point on, the control or regulating effect of the inflation valve begins. Consequently, the compressor of the turbocharger can be bypassed by the Umblaseventil in both directions.
    As Umblaseventil various valves can be used. For example, the Umblaseventil be a valve that can switch between full lock and full opening. Of course, it may be preferable to use a Umblaseventil, which supports in addition to the full closure and the full opening a variety of other degrees of opening.
    Advantageous developments of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
    The invention can be used both in internal combustion engines with one or more turbochargers. For multiple turbochargers, the compressors may preferably be connected in series.
    In this case, an embodiment in which the compressors of all turbochargers of the internal combustion engine can be bypassed by at least one partial flow of the fuel mixture provided for combustion by means of the inflation valve is particularly preferred since this maximizes the positive effect of the invention.
    The invention can be embodied particularly simply in terms of design by providing a blow-by line for bypassing the compressor of the at least one turbocharger, the blow-by valve being arranged in the blow-by line.
    Particularly preferably, a mixing device can be provided, by means of which a fuel mixture, in particular a fuel-air mixture, can be produced. The mixing device can be designed as a venturi mixer, gap mixer, gas metering valve or the like (gas metering valves have a regulation or control of the degree of mixing).
    The Umblaseleitung may preferably be connected to an output of the mixing device for the fuel mixture.
    The internal combustion engine may have one or more cylinders in which the combustion of the fuel occurs. Particularly preferably, the invention can be used in a gas engine, which is preferably stationary. The gas engine may have a gas mixer in front of an exhaust gas turbocharger and / or in front of a mixture cooler.
    Particularly preferably, it may be provided that the Umblaseventil is completely opened when starting the internal combustion engine or is kept fully open. Of course, a partial opening or a partial opening may be useful in some situations.
    Particularly preferably, the invention can be used in internal combustion engines which drive a generator. This generator may be suitable for feeding electrical energy into a power grid. The internal combustion engine may preferably be designed as a stationary gasoline engine. The power grid can be, for example, a public power grid.
    The invention can also be used in non-stationary internal combustion engines (example: marine engine).
    However, the invention can also be used in conjunction with other consumers, such as a gas compressor.
    Further advantages and details of the invention will become apparent from the figures and the associated description of the figures. Show
    1 shows an embodiment of an internal combustion engine according to the invention with two turbochargers,
    Fig. 2 shows an embodiment of an internal combustion engine according to the invention with a turbocharger and
    3 shows a further embodiment of an internal combustion engine according to the invention with two turbochargers,
    Fig. 4 is a schematic representation for comparison of the prior art with the invention.
    Fig. 1 shows an internal combustion engine 1, which has a cylinder block 2. In this cylinder (not shown) are arranged, in which the combustion of a fuel-air mixture happens. For generating the fuel-air mixture, a mixing device 9 is provided. This is connected to a reservoir for fuel T and a suction device for air L. Over a
    Supply line 11, the fuel-air mixture produced in the mixing device 9 is supplied to the engine block 2. The gases generated by the combustion in the cylinder block 2 are discharged via an exhaust pipe 12.
    There are two turbochargers 3 are provided, wherein in each case a compressor 4 of the turbocharger 3 is arranged in the supply line 11. The turbines 5 of the turbocharger 3 are arranged in the exhaust pipe 12. The compressors 4 are connected in the supply line 11 in series. Analogously, the turbines 5 are connected in series. The compressors 4 are followed in each case by two mixture coolers 13. The turbines 5 drive the compressors 4, which generate an increased pressure-the boost pressure-of the fuel-air mixture. This increased pressure results in more fuel-air mixture than in a naturally aspirated engine in the cylinder, which increases the performance.
    There is also provided a Umblaseleitung 8, in which the Umblaseventil 6 is arranged. During operation of the internal combustion engine 1, a partial flow of the fuel-air mixture can not be supplied to the engine block 2 by opening the Umblaseventils 6. By the boost pressure, a partial flow is instead directed back into the supply line 11 (via the Umblaseleitung 8 in the flow direction B). This lowers the performance of the internal combustion engine 1. By this measure, therefore, the performance of the internal combustion engine 1 can be controlled or controlled. This regulation or control is done in a control or regulating device 7, which is connected to the Umblaseventil 6.
    There may also be a common or a respective wastegate (not shown) for the turbocharger 3.
    Before starting the internal combustion engine 1, both the supply line 11 and the Umblaseleitung 8 is not filled with fuel-air mixture. This has safety reasons. For example, the fuel-air mixture could ignite due to the action of heat in the supply line 11.
    If the internal combustion engine 1 is now towed by an external drive (not shown), fuel-air mixture is sucked in. In the prior art, the fuel-air mixture had to be sucked through the supply line 11, the compressors 4 and the mixture coolers 13. By opening the Umblaseventils 6, the fuel-air mixture has a much shorter and resistance-free path over the Umblaseleitung 8 (in the flow direction A) to cover, thereby shortening the start time.
    With the help of the internal combustion engine 1 - in this case a stationary gas engine - a generator 10 is driven. The generator 10 may for example be connected to a power grid and this energy supply. The internal combustion engine 1 can of course also serve other consumers, such as mechanical drives or compressors.
    Fig. 2 shows an embodiment of the invention with a single turbocharger 3. Otherwise, this embodiment is analogous to that of Figure 1.
    Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of the invention with a two-stage charging as in Figure 1, but here are the Umblaseleitung 8 and the Umblaseventil 6 between the compressor stages (between the two compressors 4). The Umblaseleitung 8 thus bypasses not both compressors 4, but only a compressor 4, in this case the low-pressure compressor.
    Thus, when opening the Umblaseventils 6 the fuel mixture for the starting process, although a shorter and less flow path associated path offered, however, the fuel mixture must pass through a compressor 4 during the starting process.
    It may still be advantageous to arrange the Umblaseventil 6 as shown in Figure 3, for example, because the Umblaseventil 6 should also be used for control purposes in normal operation of the internal combustion engine 1.
    Fig. 4 is a side view of an internal combustion engine 1, whereby the shortening of the flow path caused by the present invention is particularly clearly expressed.
    Evident are the engine block 2, the turbocharger 3, the mixing device 9 and the Umblaseventil. 6
    When starting according to the prior art, the fuel mixture had to take the long path with the reference numeral 14. The path provided with the reference numeral 15 is that which the fuel-air mixture according to the invention must take. By the invention, the fuel-air mixture must therefore fill only a fraction of the dead volume or cover only a fraction of the path length, in addition, flow resistance must be overcome.
