Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus for treating gas to be delivered to a combustion process in an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a respective method according to the independent method claim.
- Such an apparatus comprises a canister having an inlet for introducing gas into the canister, an outlet for allowing gas to flow out of the canister and a permeable zeolite based charge arranged between the inlet and the outlet and being able to absorb and desorb water.
- the method comprises piping gas through such a canister.
- Zeolites are microporous aluminosilicate minerals commonly used in a wide range of applications because of the high adsorbent capacity for water and because of low production costs.
- Such an apparatus and such a method are known from the document JP 2006-226149A .
- This document shows an exhaust gas recirculation system having such a canister arranged between the exhaust line and a pump in an exhaust gas recirculation line.
- the canister serves for separating steam from other exhaust gas constituents. In one embodiment, only the steam is transmitted to the intake side of the engine.
- the apparatus according to the present invention further comprises a first temperature sensor arranged in thermal contact with the zeolite based charge, a means for providing a temperature at the canister inlet, and a control unit that is adapted to determine whether the charge is in an absorbing state, in a desorbing state or in a transition state between the absorbing state and the desorbing state, based on signals of the first temperature sensor and the means for providing a temperature at the canister inlet, and which control unit is further adapted to control an amount of recirculated exhaust gas based on the determined state.
- the method of the present invention further comprises determining whether the charge is in an absorbing state, in a desorbing state or in a transition state between the absorbing state and the desorbing state, and controlling an amount of recirculated exhaust gas based on the determined state, wherein the step of determining is based on evaluating signals of a first temperature sensor and a means for providing a temperature at the canister inlet, the first temperature sensor being arranged in thermal contact with the zeolite based charge.
- the present invention is of particular advantage in so called low pressure exhaust gas recirculation systems (LP-EGR).
- LP-EGR low pressure exhaust gas recirculation systems
- Exhaust gas recirculation is, in general, a well known emission control technology that provides a significant NOx-emission reduction of internal combustion engines for automotive application, in particular for Diesel engines and for other lean burn engines.
- HP-EGR high pressure EGR
- LP-EGR With a LP-EGR, the exhaust gas to be recirculated is drawn downstream of the turbine and exhaust gas treatment devices such as an oxidation catalyst and/or a particulate filter and/or a NOx-storage catalyst, cooled down and then introduced into the intake air upstream the compressor.
- LP-EGR is preferred over a standalone HP-EGR because of a higher NOx-reduction capability, lower temperatures of the recirculated gas, a lesser particulate content and a higher potential of enthalpy recovery via the turbocharger.
- LP-EGR may be used in combination with HP-EGR.
- the safe operation of the engine during all driving conditions requires an LP-EGR ratio limitation in operating points where a condensation may occur.
- Said limitation strongly depends on environmental conditions such as ambient temperature, humidity and altitude.
- engine and EGR-system operating conditions such as piping wall temperature, gas temperature, boost pressure and the like, and the driving profile.
- the engine and LP-EGR/air system control unit (ECU) has to be programmed to execute algorithms to estimate condensation and react with proper limitation to LP-EGR-ratio.
- This limitation applies mainly to cold environmental conditions, engine heat-up after cold start and warm engine conditions with high boost pressure.
- the theoretical NOx-reduction potential of LP-EGR in the cold start homologation cycles and real world driving profiles is strongly decreased.
- the present invention allows to determine more precisely whether there is a risk of condensed water in the air system. For instance, the risk is smaller in situations where the Zeolite hydrates, i.e. absorbs water from the gas flowing through the zeolite. Accordingly, the limitations on the EGR, in particular limitations on the LP-EGR may be lowered or relaxed in such situations.
- the present invention allows controlling the amount or the load of water in the air system for internal combustion engines, in particular for Diesel engines, in particular for Diesel engines equipped with an LP-EGR-system. Thereby, an extended use of LP-EGR is possible by fine monitoring the presence and/or risk of condensing water in the air system, which extended use leads inherently to a further reduction of NOx-emissions.
- a side effect of the adsorption of water (hydrating) and the desorption of water (dehydrating) by zeolites is a strong energy exchange.
- Zeolite structure hydration is exothermic and vice-versa, water release from the zeolite is coupled with an inherent endothermia.
- this phenomenon is as such known, said exothermia / endothermia have not been utilized in the field of engines. This applies in particular in the field of EGR and even more particular, in the field of LP-EGR.
- the state of the zeolite can be sensed with simple means that are robust enough for an automotive use.
- the combination of said exothermia and/or endothermia with the temperature sensors provides feedback and information about water load in the air system, which allows safe and rational use of EGR, in particular of LP-EGR, in all vehicle operating conditions.
- Zeolite exothermia induced by dew formation in cold engine conditions helps to heat up the intake air rapidly, which reduces the HC and CO emissions during warm up.
- Endothermia during zeolite desorption phases, e.g. during warm engine operation and low boost pressure helps to cool intake air, thereby improving intercooler efficiency with the benefit of reducing NOx-emissions.
- the canister comprises a zeolite based charge that is a zeolite based brick having more or less straight flow-through channels or that the canister comprises a charge that is based on tightly packed zeolite based pellets.

- the apparatus comprises a pipe, which connects the exhaust system upstream of the turbine with the air system downstream of the compressor and which comprises a cooling device which cools the exhaust gas recirculated through the pipe.
- the apparatus preferably comprises a further EGR-valve that is located in the intake system upstream of the junction where the pipe joins the air system and a further valve that is located in the exhaust system downstream of the branch-off, wherein both valves are controlled by the control unit.
- the canister with the first temperature sensor is installed in one of a first installation position, a second installation position, and a third installation position, wherein the first installation position is located between the branch-off and the EGR-valve, the second installation position is located in or downstream of the junction and upstream of the compressor, and the third installation position is located downstream of the compressor and upstream of the EGR-valve.
- the means for providing the temperature at the canister inlet comprises a second temperature sensor that is arranged upstream of the canister, in particular, without any device that might cause an unwanted deviation between the temperature at the second temperature sensor and the temperature at the canister inlet.
- a reference temperature T_ref determined with a means for providing a temperature at the catalyst inlet and the zeolite temperature T_zeo measured with the first temperature sensor is evaluated and three working states are detected, wherein a first working state is characterized in that the temperature T_zeo of the zeolite is greater than the gas reference temperature T_ref and wherein the control unit estimates the water load, i.e.
- the control unit calculates an LP-EGR condensation limitation correction, and wherein the control unit calculates the heat-up capacity of the zeolite in its present state of water load, and wherein the second working state is characterized in that the temperature T_zeo of the zeolite is comparable to the gas reference temperature T_ref and wherein this state is used for learning and adaptation of the mentioned water load and water unload models concerning the zeolite, and wherein a third working state is characterized in that the temperature T_zeo of the zeolite is lower than the gas reference temperature T_ref and that in this state the control unit estimates the remaining water load, i.e.
- control unit calculates an LP-EGR condensation limitation correction and that the control unit calculates correction factors to evaluate the proper LP-EGR condensation limitation, and that the control unit calculates the cooling capacity of the zeolite in its present state of water load.
- the step of determining is based on evaluating signals of a first temperature sensor, and of a second temperature sensor, which is arranged at the catalyst inlet.
