A feed pump of a fuel supply system for a DME engine rotates in a normal direction to supply DME fuel in a fuel tank to a high-pressure supply pump through a low-pressure fuel supply passage. The high-pressure supply pump pressurizes the DME fuel and discharges the DME fuel therefrom. The discharged DME fuel is distributed by a high-pressure fuel supply passage and injected by a fuel injector. A first fuel recovery passage connects the high-pressure fuel supply passage to the low-pressure fuel supply passage. When the engine is operated, a first solenoid valve closes the first fuel recovery passage. When the engine is stopped, the first solenoid valve opens the first fuel recovery passage and the feed pump rotates in a reverse direction, thereby the DME fuel in the low-pressure fuel supply passage and in the high-pressure fuel supply passage is recovered into the fuel tank.

As a viscous fluid (F) contained in a vehicular heat generator provided with a rotor (33), a non-Newtonian fluid having an apparent viscosity that decreases as the shear rate of the rotor (33) increases (e.g., a kind of silicone oil) is employed. The nominal viscosity of the viscous fluid (F) is in the range of 10,000 cSt to 200,000 cSt. If such viscous fluid is employed, the viscous fluid (F) maintains its shear heat generating function over an extended period even under circumstances where the fluid (F) is subjected to over-shearing by over-rotation of the rotor (33). In addition, low-temperature starting of the rotor is facilitated.
摘要:
A viscous fluid type heating apparatus capable of achieving both reliable prevention of deterioration in the heat-generating performance of a viscous fluid and reliable prevention of leakage of the viscous fluid from the apparatus, and having a heat generating chamber provided with a first and a second storing region for storing a silicone oil to avoid an application of a shearing action from a rotor element to the viscous fluid and a heat generating gap. The silicone oil is held in the heat generating chamber so that it is able to flow between the heat generating gap and the first storing region which is directly affected by a thermal condition in the heat generating gap. The second storing region is substantially separated from the first storing region and is not directly affected by the thermal condition in the heat generating gap. The flow of the silicone oil between the first and second storing regions is adjustable by a movable element.
摘要:
A variable heat generating viscous fluid type heat generator having a housing assembly including movable and fixed plate members arranged to define an axially bounded region in which a heat generating chamber is formed to have an axial width which is changed by the axial movement of the movable plate member with respect to the fixed plate member within the housing assembly by the controlled operation of the moving unit. The change in the axial width of the heat generating chamber causes a change in the gap size of a fluid filled gap between the outer face of the rotor element and the inner wall surface of the heat generating chamber and, accordingly, the heat generating performance of the viscous fluid type heat generator is adjustably varied.
摘要:
A viscous fluid type heater is disclosed. The heater has a front housing and a rear housing secured to each other. The front housing has a space in which a first partitioning plate and a second partitioning plate located immovably fitted. A heating chamber that is defined between the first plate and the second plate accommodates viscous fluid. A rotor is rotatably supported in the heating chamber. The rotor rotates and shears the viscous fluid to generate heat. A heat exchange chamber is defined by the first and the second partitioning plates and disposed adjacent to the heating chamber. The heat exchanging chamber allows circulating fluid to flow therethrough so that the circulating fluid is heated by the heat transmitted to the heat exchanging chamber from the heating chamber. A securing structure secures the partitioning plates to the housing and concaves are formed in the outer peripheral surface of the partitioning plates to decrease a contacting area of the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface.

A viscous fluid type heat generator having a sealed heat generating chamber in which heat generation in the viscous fluid is carried out in response to the rotation of a rotor element received in the heat generating chamber and applying a shearing action to the viscous fluid, the sealed heat generating chamber having front and rear heat generating chamber portions on both sides of the rotor element and a large annular gap extending between the front and rear heat generating chamber portions and surrounding the rotor element to provide a fluid communication between the front and rear heat generating chamber portions in order to prevent the viscous fluid in the first and second heat generating portions from being unequally degraded.
摘要:
A viscous fluid type heat generator includes a housing assembly defining a heat generating chamber and a heat receiving chamber for permitting a heat exchanging fluid to circulate therethrough to receive heat from the heat generating chamber. A rotor element is supported by the housing assembly separately from the drive shaft to be rotationally driven by the drive shaft for rotation within the heat generating chamber. A viscous fluid is held in a gap defined between the inner wall surfaces of the heat generating chamber and the outer faces of the rotor element, for heat generation under a shearing stress applied by the rotation of the rotor element. Frictional coupling means are provided for frictionally coupling the drive shaft with the rotor element and for mechanically transmitting a rotation of the drive shaft to the rotor element to permit the rotor element to rotate in the heat generating chamber at a speed not higher than a predetermined thermal limit speed. If the rotation speed of the rotor element 22 exceeds the predetermined thermal limit speed, the viscous fluid could generate excessive heat, which would probably accelerate the thermal degradation of the viscous fluid.
