报告摘要:Off-road vehicles including construction machinery and agriculture equipment use fluid power based powertrain systems, where internal combustion engines (ICE) are used as the prime mover and hydraulic pumps, motors and cylinders are used for driving and working functions. The main drawbacks of this architecture are the relatively low efficiency and pollutants emission. An alternative approach is to produce power using a hydraulic free piston engine (FPE), where the piston motion is unconstrained by eliminating the crankshaft. The FPE architecture can be used to address concerns on both the engine and the fluid power system. FPE enables variable compression ratio control, lower friction and less moving parts in a modular and compact design. This feature matches well with advanced combustions such as Low Temperature Combustion (LTC). Thermal efficiency of more than 50% can be achieved. The output of the FPE is converted into fluid power by integrating a linear hydraulic pump directly with the combustion piston. Given the modular nature of the FPE, different power modules can be used for different functions such as driving or working circuits. The various power modules can operate at different pressures and flow rates, and they can be turned on and off in real time, even better they can be located at various locations of the machine. This modular arrangement will significantly reduce throttling loss, improve part load efficiency, and offer extra degree of freedom for machine design and packaging.
