DIESEL ENGINE FOR A LPG-DIESEL MIXTURE

摘要

Diesel engine (1) for combusting a diesel - LPG mixture and method for performing thereof. The combined LPG-diesel mixture is supplied via one or more injectors (2) to a diesel engine (1) via a high-pressure pump (3). The mixture is obtained by combining the fuel flow from a LPG tank (5) and diesel tank (6). Increased pressure is applied in both fuel flows for mixing purposes. Immediately following the mixing a circulation system (23) is present in which increase in pressure also takes place, wherein a part of the mixture is supplied to the high-pressure pump (3)p and a part is recirculated. When the LPG supply is switched off the pressure can be gradually decreased through circulation.
