연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

This invention relates to the injection of compressible gaseous fuel directly into the combustion chamber of a reciprocating piston-type internal combustion engine. In particular, the invention provides apparatus and methods for low-pressure, high-speed direct injection of compressed natural gas into a combustion chamber of an engine. Using the present invention, relatively low intake pressures of about 50 to about 150 PSIG yield high-speed (sonic and supersonic) gas flow through the diverging nozzle portion for injection into the combustion chamber.

What is claimed is: 1. A fuel injection assembly for direct fuel injection of low pressure gaseous fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, the assembly comprising: at least one nozzle having at least one nozzle passage formed by an annular nozzle wall, the at least one nozzle having a nozzle inlet and nozzle outlet, the at least one nozzle passage including a converging portion adjacent the nozzle inlet and a diverging portion adjacent the nozzle outlet, the converging and diverging portions being disposed between the nozzle inlet and outlet; a first critical orifice disposed between the converging and diverging portions of the at least one nozzle passage; valve means for controlling the first critical orifice such that at least a portion of the fuel flow passing through the first critical orifice reaches at least sonic velocity as it travels through the diverging portion of the at least one nozzle passage and exits the nozzle outlet; wherein the first critical orifice is an annular gap formed between the valve means and the annular nozzle wall upon activation of the valve means; and wherein a longitudinal axial length of the diverging portion is between about 15 and about 50 times the width of the annular gap that forms the first critical orifice. 2. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the diverging nozzle portion is configured such that at least one Mach disc is created as the fuel exits the nozzle passage and enters a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. 3. The assembly of claim 2, wherein the gaseous fuel supply is supplied at a pressure between about 50 and about 150 PSIG. 4. The assembly of claim 3, wherein the gaseous fuel supply is supplied at a pressure between about 60 and about 120 PSIG. 5. The assembly of claim 4, wherein the gaseous fuel supply is supplied at a pressure between about 60 and about 95 PSIG. 6. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the longitudinal axial length of the diverging portion of the at least one nozzle is between about 25 to about 35 times the width of the annular gap that forms the first critical orifice. 7. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the valve means is a poppet valve having a head with circumferential edges configured to create a gap between the circumferential edges and the surrounding annular nozzle wall, the gap forming the first critical orifice when the valve is open, the edges further configured so as to seat against the surrounding annular nozzle wall when the valve is closed. 8. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the at least one nozzle passage includes a second converging portion disposed below the first critical orifice, wherein the second converging portion is configured to serve as a transportation stop for the poppet valve when the valve is in the open position. 9. A fuel injection assembly for direct fuel injection of low pressure gaseous fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, the assembly comprising: at least one nozzle having a first nozzle passage formed by an annular nozzle wall, the first nozzle passage having a first nozzle inlet and first nozzle outlet, the first nozzle passage having a converging portion adjacent the first nozzle inlet and a diverging portion adjacent the first nozzle outlet, the converging and diverging portions of the first nozzle passage being disposed between the first nozzle inlet and first nozzle outlet; a first critical orifice disposed between the converging and diverging portions of the first nozzle passage; a second critical orifice disposed within a second nozzle passage, the second nozzle passage having a second nozzle inlet in communication with the first nozzle passage and a second nozzle outlet, the second nozzle passage having a converging portion adjacent the second nozzle inlet and a diverging portion adjacent the second nozzle outlet, the converging and diverging portions of the second nozzle passage separated by a second critical orifice; valve means for simultaneously controlling the first critical orifice and the inlet to the second nozzle passage, such that at least a portion of the fuel flow passing through the first critical orifice reaches at least sonic velocity as it travels through the diverging portion of the first nozzle passage and exits the first nozzle passage, and such that at least a portion of fuel flow passes through the second critical orifice in the second nozzle passage and reaches at least sonic velocity as it travels through the diverging portion of the second nozzle passage and exits the second nozzle passage. 10.
