Piezoelectric Sensors for Combustion Pressure Based Control Systems for Large Gas Engines
Combustion analysis is a basic tool for the development of reciprocating internal combustion engines and has been used for more than 100 years. The evaluation of combustion pressure and associated chamber volume provides superb information about the combustion process. However, in the past it was typically applied in a R&D laboratory environment and was not intended to be used for continuous monitoring or controlling of engine conditions in the field. More stringent regulations targeted for 2012 for the emissions of in-use Gas Engine Machinery, combined with the availability of field-useable data acquisition and evaluation hardware encourage the implementation of combustion pressure based engine control systems. With a wide measuring range, high temperature accuracy and excellent long-term stability, piezoelectric pressure sensors represent the technology of choice most commonly used for combustion measurement and analysis. Retrofitting existing large bore gas engines with piezoelectric pressure sensors and implementing a combustion pressure based engine control system significantly enhances engine operation, improves efficiency, reduces emissions, increases engine durability and provides sophisticated control capabilities. In this short course, the following topics will be covered in detail: potential emissions requirements for engines from 2012; anticipated combustion and monitoring related impact on pipeline engines based on ERLE (Emissions Reductions in Legacy Engines) program; the basics of combustion analysis; technology and design of piezoelectric pressure sensors; the application and installation of pressure sensors in engines for maximum life; case studies of sensor installations and sensor failures; advanced analysis methods for combustion pressure based monitoring, balancing and control; non-emission related benefits for engine operators. The objective of the course is to improve knowledge about the technology and application of basic components for combu
