This article describes the configuration and working principle of the high-temperature combustion system; according to the control requirements which have a wide range and high precision for fuel flow-rate of the high-temperature combustion system, a set of fuel supply system is designed based on the frequency conversion hydraulic technology and electro-hydraulic proportional technique. An automatic control system with the function of field and remote control is carried out to achieve the precise supply of the fuel.

The experimental results show that the response time of flow-rate is about 12 s, almost no overshoot, and control accuracy within 1%.

Introduction (problem statement and relevance). Limited oil reserves and tightening environmental standards are forcing engine manufacturers to switch to alternative fuels in the near future, among which hydrogen is the most promising. The advantages of hydrogen are high specific heat of combustion and high combustion rate. Wide concentration limits of hydrogen combustion make it possible to use high-quality power control, thereby providing an increase in the efficiency of a hydrogen engine when compared to the basic internal combustion engine.The purpose of the study was to ensure the operation of a serial gasoline engine running on hydrogen with a new experimental fuel supply system, as well as the modification of the intake manifold design without abnormal phenomena during combustion when operating on a lean mixture, and to obtain efficient and ecological characteristics of a hydrogen engine under bench test conditions, as a result.Methodology and research methods. The work is experimental, the reliability of the results obtained is confirmed by the use of modern means for measuring and processing experimental data. The obtained results of measuring nitrogen oxides are adequate to the known Zel'dovich thermal mechanism. The value of the results lies in the fact that they show the feasibility of transferring serial internal combustion engines to hydrogen; in addition, these results are used to develop and verify mathematical 3D models of the hydrogen engine working process.Scientific novelty and results. A new system providing the necessary characteristics (pressure, duration and cycle dose) for supplying hydrogen to the intake system with two injectors for each cylinder was designed, installed and tested on the prototype engine.Practical significance. The expediency of the working cycle creation and efficiency of a hydrogen engine with an experimental lean-burn fuel supply system was confirmed, which made it possible to provide high-quality power control with external mixture formation and forced ignition.

Abstract Fuel supply system, the regulation system for fuel delivery to fuel cell, is one of the most important auxiliary systems in a solid oxide fuel cell-gas turbine hybrid system. It plays a significant role in the dynamic performance and safety. Commonly, the fuel supply system is always simplified as a linear system which means that the relationship between valve opening and fuel flow rate is linear. However, the servo actuator and metering valve have some nonlinear characteristics such as hysteresis, dead zone, relay, and saturation. These nonlinear characteristics can directly affect the dynamic performance of the hybrid system. In this paper, a 328kW SOFC-GT hybrid system was taken as a research object. Firstly, a fuel supply system model considering the nonlinear characteristic was combined with the hybrid system. Then, the effect of dead zone-relay characteristic of servo amplifier was analyzed. The results show that the dead zone width has a great effect on the dynamic performance of the hybrid system. When the dead zone width is too small, the fuel flow rate will be oscillating causing unstable of the electrical characteristics in SOFC. The hybrid system will be stable with the increase of dead zone width. However, the larger dead zone width causes the hysteresis and the increase of the dynamic response time. At an improvement method with a two-dimensional fuzzy compensation was proposed. The results show that the fuzzy compensation can solve the oscillation problem caused by the dead zone-delay effectively. Finally, a servo actuator experiment system is developed based on an electro-hydraulic servo actuator facility and a software component of fuzzy compensator. The test rig was conducted an experiment to validate the simulation result. The results show that the experiment results match well with the simulation results.

The Cost

Alternative fuel within the meaning of Directive 2014/94/EU is, among others, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), characterized by a lower purchase cost and lower emissions of toxic exhaust compounds in comparison to the combustion of classic gasoline. In wood chippers, intended for chopping branches, with low-power internal combustion engines that meet the emission standards in force in 2019 in the European Union, in accordance with Regulation 2016/1628/EU, carburetor fuel supply systems are commonly used. Innovative trends in the development of these drives are: electronic fuel injection, systems supporting the adaptation of the working elements to the conditions of use and the use of alternative fuels. The first two solutions significantly affect the cost of purchasing a power unit or modernizing it. The authors of this article indicate, as a beneficial alternative, a cheap (EUR 105) possibility of modernizing the carburetor fuel supply system. It is based on a modification that will allow for the use of LPG instead of gasoline to drive the working system of the wood chipper. This article presents the results of tests on the fuel consumption of a wood chipper powered with gasoline (3.04 L h−1) and LPG (3.65 L h−1) during continuous chipping. The cost of an hour of chipping related to fuel consumption was determined, which was equal to 3.89 € h−1 while using gasoline, and 2.19 € h−1 when using LPG. The mass flow rate (0.66 t h−1) and volumetric flow rate (3.5 m3 h−1) of a wood chipper powered by a low-power (9.5 kW) internal combustion engine with spark ignition were determined. In addition, we determined the cost of producing 1 m3 of biomass from chipping freshly cut oak branches (Quercus robur L. Sp. Pl. 996 1753) with a maximum diameter of 80 mm and a humidity of 25%. The branches were selected earlier in such a way that their dimensions as as similar as possible. This amounted to EUR 1.11 for a gasoline-powered drive and EUR 0.63 for a LPG powered one. The benefits of using an alternative fuel supply system, the installation of which increases the cost of the machine by 8.4%, have been confirmed.
