Industrial applicibility
Blender 26 contributes to reducing agent 30 is uniformly distributed or is mixed in exhaust stream 16, promotes Reducing agent 30 changes into NH3, and prevents sedimentary formation.Blender 26 also should cheaply, Little and form no minimum.But, these features are conflicted the most mutually.Such as, bigger and complicated Structure can reducing agent 30 is uniformly distributed in exhaust stream 16 and promote reducing agent 30 change into NH3 aspect is effectively but cheap, occupies too much space, and frequently forms a large amount of back pressure.
Reducing agent 30 is uniformly distributed in exhaust stream 16 by NH3 being directed to equably SCR All passages of catalyst and improve the efficiency of SCR system 20 and therefore can occur to convert in a large number. It is uniformly distributed to reducing agent 30 in exhaust stream 16 also to reduce going back needed for realizing bigger efficiency The amount of former dose 30.It is uniformly distributed to reducing agent 30 in exhaust stream 16 still prevent too much NH3 It is directed to may result in a part of SCR catalyst region that NH3 slips over.
It is likely to be formed precipitate when reducing agent 30 resolves into the most rapidly NH3, and assembles reducing agent The thick-layer of 30.These layers can accumulate along with increasing reducing agent 30 is injected or collects, this Can have and stop the cooling effect resolving into NH3.As a result, reducing agent 30 be sublimed into crystal or with Other modes are transformed into solid constituent and form precipitate.Pellet fraction can comprise biuret (NH2CONHCONH2) or cyanuric acid ((NHCO) 3) or another kind of component, depend on Temperature and other conditions.These precipitate may be formed at what reducing agent spraying 44 was clashed into, and precipitated or stagnated In region or on surface.
The operating of dynamical system 10 can be adversely affected by these precipitate.Precipitate can block exhaust stream 16 flowings, cause higher back pressure and reduce electromotor 12 and after-treatment system 14 performance and efficiency. Precipitate also can interrupt reducing agent 30 and flows and be mixed in exhaust stream 16, thus reduces and resolves into NH3 also reduces NOx reduction efficiency.Sedimentary formation is also consumed by reducing agent 30, makes injection Control be more difficult to and potentially reduce NOx reduction efficiency.Precipitate is also possible to corrosion and degraded SCR The component of system 20.
Limit back pressure increase the most critically important.High back pressure can endanger electromotor 12 performance.High back pressure also can draw Play precipitate to be formed and exhaust gas leakage.
Ring 54 can form limited back pressure, and still realizing higher reducing agent 30 is mixed into exhaust stream simultaneously Degree in 16.The large scale of central opening 64 limits restriction and also forms turning over of exhaust stream 16 Rolling (tumbling), this rolling is mixed in exhaust stream 16 effectively for making reducing agent 30.Permitted Many other blenders designs are achieved and are mixed or formed high turbulent flow level by eddy flow.These hybrid instruments There is a complicated and huge structure, and the most costly and produce back pressure.Instead, it has been found that it is logical The rolling crossing ring 54 realization is effective for mixing, produces also cheap simultaneously, and will not produce it The back pressure of the amount that his blender is the biggest.The even shape of ring 54 is by the cheap simple sheet material of cutting Be conducive to it to manufacture.More complicated blender needs the more complicated cutting of costliness, bends and weld.
Gap 68 can be used to allow exhaust stream 16 to flow through, still realize above-mentioned tumbling effect simultaneously.This Plant and flow through the stagnation gathering preventing from otherwise being formed sedimentary reducing agent 30.This flowing through additionally aids Reduce back pressure.If gap 68 is excessive, the most above-mentioned tumbling effect may be hindered, because flowing in a large number Move and will only be in carrying out around ring 54 rather than rolling through central opening 64.If gap 68 is too small, then Described flowing through may be not enough to prevent precipitate or realize substantially reducing of back pressure.
Gap 68 can position along the periphery of the outer surface 57 along ring 54, will gather because this is reducing agent The position of collection.In certain embodiments, gap 68 can be only located at the bottom of ring 54, reducing agent 30 Otherwise can assemble here.
Blender 26 can affect sedimentary formation with the blender distance 88 of injector tip 42 and mix Close effect.If blender distance 88 is too short, then reducing agent spraying 44 will focus in little space, Because spraying 44 does not the most expand.Correspondingly, central opening 64 can be only passed through in reducing agent spraying 44 Accurate central part.Owing to spraying 44 will focus in little space and only by central opening The heart, so above-mentioned tumbling effect may will not work, and reducing agent 30 is mixed into exhaust stream 16 In may be not up to desired degree.If blender distance 88 is long, then reducing agent spraying 44 Bigger volume will be had expanded to and can impinge upon before being converted into NH3 on ring 54 or inwall 25. This shock may cause precipitate formed as discussed above.
Opening 73 can be used to help reduce back pressure and also weight can be alleviated.It is used as opening 73 Form flowing through and discharging area of reducing agent 30 gathering, be therefore prevented from precipitate.
Central construct 76 can help to make reducing agent to spray 44 fragmentations and atomization, thereby assists in and is converted into NH3.Central construct 76 also can import helping the turbulent flow being converted into NH3 in exhaust stream 16.In Centre structure 76 can be formed without precipitate, because they are positioned at the region with high flow rate and high-temperature In.Central construct 76 also can increase rigidity and the structural strength of blender 26.
Deflector 78 can be used also to be imported by eddy flow in exhaust stream 16 for other in addition to rolling Mixing.In certain embodiments, deflector 78 can produce reverse rotation eddy flow.As opening 73, Deflector 78 also assists in minimizing back pressure and also can alleviate weight.It is used as deflector 78 and carrys out shape Become flowing through and discharging area of reducing agent 30 gathering, be therefore prevented from precipitate.
Blender 26 is also suitably adapted for double branch pipe after-treatment system 90.Double branch pipe after-treatment system 90 is normal Often with relatively large engine system combination.Double branch pipe after-treatment system 90 can allow to use less after Process substrate.Owing to these substrates may often be such that the ceramic body of complexity, so they can use less chi Very little economically produce.Less size also can be improved packaging and selects and improve the flowing across basal surface Distribution.
Owing to blender 26 imports limited back pressure, so it can combine equably from first and second Enter the exhaust stream 16 of arm 95 and 96.The rolling formed by blender 26 is also assisted in will arrange Air-flow 16 flowing is separated into first and second and leaves in arm 91 and 92.Depend heavily on eddy flow and The blender of turbulent flow can be formed and leave the bias current of any one in arm 91 and 92 towards first and second.
Separation distance 94 can affect exhaust stream 16 even partition that flows and leave arm 91 to first and second With 92 in and prevent formed precipitate.
Separation distance 94 can affect exhaust stream 16 even partition that flows and leave arm 91 to first and second In 92.If separation distance 94 is too short, then reducing agent 30 is likely not to have the time and changes into NH3 And the rolling effect from blender 26 may be big.Bad before section 93 NH3 is changed into separating Impinge upon such as reducing agent and on wall, produce precipitate.Big rolling may cause being partial to the first He Second leaves the one in arm 91 and 92.If separation distance is long, then may cause double branch pipe The packaging of after-treatment system 90 is difficult and loss may be caused to activate SCR catalyst 22 and prevent shape Become the heat needed for precipitate.
Although blender 26 is described as assisting to import reducing agent exhaust stream above, but it is also contemplated that Blender 26 can be used to assist to import in any various flowings any various materials.Although such as institute in literary composition The embodiments of the invention stated can be combined without departing from the scope of following claims, but for ability It would be apparent that may be made that various remodeling and modification for field technique personnel.According to description With the practice to the present invention, other embodiments will be apparent to for a person skilled in the art.Should Think that description and example are the most exemplary, the true scope of the present invention by following claims and it Equivalent indicate.
