Improving the Energy Efficiency of a Gas Engine Using an Electronic Control System

摘要

The article presents the main advantages and disadvantages of liquefied natural gas as amotor fuel used in internal combustion engines. Particular attention in the article is paid to thestudy of critical pressure and temperature indicators in the fuel supply system of a gas engineand cryo tank filled with liquefied methane with thermal insulation. The article also considers thecritical parameters during the outflow of methane in special tubes of circular cross-section, thisprocess occurs during the transportation of gas in a two-phase medium. Variants of schemes forsupplying natural gas to the fuel supply system of a gas engine based on an electronic controlsystem are presented in order to increase energy efficiency and improve operational properties.
