DUAL - FUEL GENSETS.
FULL LOAD OPERATION POSSBILE ON DIESEL AND ON GAS.

- NATURAL GAS; METHANE; LPG; BUTANE GAS
- BIO-GAS and LANDFILL-GAS from FERMENTATION PROCES

Fuel Principle.
No spark plugs. Ignition comes from the injection
into the combustion chamber of a small quantity of
diesel-fuel, similar as in the diesel concept. First
the diesel-fuel comes to burn and creates a big
quantity of start-points for further gas combustion.
The combustion is quick, much more complete
(misfiring is excluded) and leads to a better over-
all efficiency of the engine. This development
permits all ratios between fuel and gas and there
for the engine is called a dual-fuel engine.
A first approach is to have a mixer or carburator
before the turbo-charger, working at atmospheric
pressure. The air-gas mixture goes through the
gas-tight turbocharger, ameliorating the mixing
process. The engine, in this case has a special
camshaft, where there is no more overlap between
opening of inlet- and exhaust- valve. The power a
such a dual-fuel engine is there for about 20 %
below the maximum power the engine can develop
as pure diesel. This kind of technology has been
chosen for our DZ-range.

Pilot Fuel: Research is done to reduce the
quantity of pilot fuel (nowadays 6-8%). Sizing
down then injection system, it is possible to reduce
further the amount of pilot-fuel. The disadvantage
however is that full load operation on pure diesel is
compromised.
For the DX-range of engine, the alternative
approach, to make an air -gas mixture just before
the inlet valve, has been chosen for. It needs a
separate gas-valve per cylinder, opened
mechanically from the prolonged rocker arm.

Emissions of a dual-fuel engine are very low for

CO and HC (better than a spark-ignited engine).
The Nox-emission is worse than for a spark -
ignited engine with the same excess-air factor, as
part of the Nox is formed in the combustion of the
liquid fuel. However this is compensated as it is
possible to go to a much higher excess air factor.
As the quantity of liquid fuel that is burned in the
dual fuel engine is limited as much as possible, it is
possible to reduce the Nox-level from 12 g/kWh
(IMO – limit) to about 4 g/kWh. This solution permits to keep the over-lap from
inlet- and exhaust valve; as a result the same power
Starting and Stopping is done by switching over in diesel- as in dual fuel-mode.

Standard ratings of gas-engines are based on
burning natural gas.
in this respect. The carburator and gas-valve
should be re-designed for each new kind of gas.
The methane number is figure that can be
calculated, and determines the detonation limit for
the gas. It should be respected very carefully.

There for one should contact our offices to have

our advise if a change in gas-specification occurs
or for a new application.

Dual-fuel engines can even burn gas-air mixtures

The caloric value of the gas determines how much
energy can be fed to the cylinder. The boost
pressure of the turbo-compressor is very important
which are non-explosive and which would stop
burning in a classic spark ignited engine. Dual fuel
engines can burn gases of which the LEL-level is
below 1 ! ABC has the reference in a company
that produces poly-ethylene foam-products where
extrusion takes place under an iso-butane gas
atmosphere. The concentration of butane is far
from the explosion limit (LEL = 0.25) and is
burned in a dual-fuel engine of ABC. This engine
runs more than 8000 hours/year.
