Reducing Temperature
Oxidation of Nox
But here we will discuss only those which related our system.
How we can Control the Nox
Venturi principle:
A constricted throat in the air passage of a
carburetor, causing a reduction in
pressure that result in fuel vapor being
drawn out of the carburetor bowl. In
venture / nozzle pressure drop by
increasing restricted area for gas.
How Leanox® Controller Work
The diagram shown gas mixer with venturi , servo motor and turbo
charger compressor side for understanding the operation of gas
mixer/venturi. In venturi principle if suction increased then area should be
decreased. when boost pressure increased (suction increased) then area
of gas flow (gas mixer)decreased by Leanox controller.
How Leanox® Controller Work
As we already discussed that when load increased on the genset also increase
the boost pressure
When boost pressure increased it mean's that suction increased from
compressor side of turbo charger then engine governor. Now the gas mixer
installed at compressor side when suction increased also compressor suck
extra gas from gas mixer at same opening point. Let suppose.
Load =600kw , P2 = 1800mbar , Gas mixer = 21.8%
Gas flow through gas mixer = 120m3
Now load increased i.e. 800kw, P2 = 2200mbar , GAS mixer = 21.3%
Gas flow through Gas mixer = 190m3
Now 190m3 gas flow provide extra fuel to genset as compare to required and
create trouble for smooth operation. Now LEANOX controller working for exact
air fuel ratio for smooth operation. For this Leanox controller close the gas
mixer till required fuel. Now gas mixer for 800kw load is 21.3%.
How Leanox® Controller Work
If mixture temperature change:
If mixture temperature increase due to following reasons.
Intake air temperature high
Fuel mixture cooling system not working properly
Gas temperature high
When mixture temperature increased that time also increased the volume
of mixture.
Then molecules of gas and air also expand and not make the
homogeneous mixture.
Or Fuel (gas ) molecules separate then each others.
That time genset going to lean mixture fuel and need to fuel for
trouble free operation.
At this position Leanox controller open the gas mixer for exact
air /fuel ratio.
How Leanox® Controller Work
If power set point change:
As we know that power set
point and boost pressure set
point make a span shown in
graph:
If we increase the set point of
power then also change the
span between power and boost
pressure and genset going to
rich fuel mixture i-e.
engine take extra fuel.
At this position LEANOX
controller close the gas mixer
and make exact air fuel ratio for
trouble free operation.
Adjustments of NOX
For adjusting the nox in Leanox controller parameters we have
parameters of boost pressure and power.
If we want Reduce the NOX:
If we increase the set point of boost
pressure that mean we are doing lean the
genset and That time actual boost pressure
increase and the value of fresh air include in
the fuel and reduce gas mixer by Leanox
controller. Resultant nox goes to down/ reduce.
same as if we increase the set point of power that time we r also
doing lean genset through change the span between power and
boost pressure.
Adjustments of NOX
If we want increase the NOX:
If we decrease the set point of boost
pressure that mean we are doing rich the
genset and That time actual boost pressure
decrease and the value of fresh air reduce
in the fuel and increase the value of gas
mixer by Leanox controller. Resultant nox goes to up/
increase.
This fault occurred when boost pressure actual value differ as compare to set
point value. max. limit of difference +/-300mbar.
Checks.
Boost pressure sensor working
Boost pressure set point value in parameters
Analog input card of boost pressure sensor
Remedies.
If boost pressure sensor not working properly or malfunction then replace
If boost pressure set point value not ok then re adjust the set point value
If analog input card not working properly then replace it.
Turbo by pass goes to zero %
This fault occurred when required fuel quantity not available for
engine operation.
Possible Causes:
Intake air filters chocked
Wrong calibration of gas mixer
Turbo charger overhauling due*
After cooler core chocked
Turbo by pass valve faulty
Analog output card faulty
Boost pressure sensor faulty
LENOX controller parameters need to be adjusted
Leakage from exhaust manifold
Ignition point need to be adjusted
KNOCKING
Knocking: Generally caused by fuel with a low methane rating) is the tendency
for the fuel to pre-ignite or auto-ignite in an engine's combustion chamber.
This early (before the spark plug fires) ignition of fuel creates a shock wave
throughout the cylinder as the burning and expanding fuel air mixture collides
with the piston that is still traveling towards top-dead-center. The resulting
knock is the sound of the pistons slamming against the cylinder walls. Severe
knocking can break pistons and destroy engines.
Possible Causes:
mixture too rich
Pre Ignition
Any abnormal sound / vibration create through moving parts(v/v lash not corrected)
The cylinder liner not properly getting lubricated
Mixture temperature increased.
Faulty knocking sensor
Faulty knocking sensor cable
Faulty analog input card
Cylinder head not properly torque.
Ignition point Reduction
Ignition Point:
That point where The spark plug ignites an air-gas mixture in the
combustion chamber before top dead center. It is also known as Crank
angle °.
Ignition point reduction:
When engine appears knocking due to abnormal combustion, mixture
temperature increase, turbo by pass goes to zero, or in case of other
abnormality engine try to recover the efficiency through reduce
ignition point.
Possible causes:
knocking
Mixture temperature high
Turbo by pass goes to zero %
Mixture rich / lean
MISFIRING
Misfire:
when the fuel in an internal-combustion engine fails to ignite
properly or when expected.
Poor air-fuel mixture exceeding the lean combustion limit.
Depending on the type of combustion system and fuel the engine
can't support the flame development when the ratio between air
and fuel becomes too great.
Possible Causes:
• Mixture rich / lean
• Weak spark plugs
• Ignition coil / lead faulty
• Ignition timing disturb
• Too late ignition point
