The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for supplying fuel to an internal combustion engine of a fracturing unit and, more particularly, to systems and methods for supplying a primary fuel and a secondary fuel for operation of an internal combustion engine associated with a hydraulic fracturing unit.
Fracturing is an oilfield operation that stimulates production of hydrocarbons, such that the hydrocarbons may more easily or readily flow from a subsurface formation to a well. For example, a fracturing system may be configured to fracture a formation by pumping a fracturing fluid into a well at high pressure and high flow rates. Some fracturing fluids may take the form of a slurry including water, proppants, and/or other additives, such as thickening agents and/or gels. The slurry may be forced via one or more pumps into the formation at rates faster than can be accepted by the existing pores, fractures, faults, or other spaces within the formation. As a result, pressure builds rapidly to the point where the formation may fail and may begin to fracture. By continuing to pump the fracturing fluid into the formation, existing fractures in the formation are caused to expand and extend in directions farther away from a well bore, thereby creating flow paths to the well bore. The proppants may serve to prevent the expanded fractures from closing when pumping of the fracturing fluid is ceased or may reduce the extent to which the expanded fractures contract when pumping of the fracturing fluid is ceased. Once the formation is fractured, large quantities of the injected fracturing fluid are allowed to flow out of the well, and the production stream of hydrocarbons may be obtained from the formation.
Prime movers may be used to supply power to a plurality of fracturing pumps for pumping the fracturing fluid into the formation. For example, a plurality of gas turbine engines may each be mechanically connected to a corresponding fracturing pump and may be operated to drive the corresponding fracturing pump. A fracturing unit may include a gas turbine engine or other type of prime mover and a corresponding fracturing pump, as well as auxiliary components for operating and controlling the fracturing unit, including electrical, pneumatic, and/or hydraulic components. The gas turbine engine, fracturing pump, and auxiliary components may be connected to a common platform or trailer for transportation and set-up as a fracturing unit at the site of a fracturing operation, which may include up to a dozen or more of such fracturing units operating together to perform the fracturing operation. In order to supply electrical, pneumatic, and/or hydraulic power for operation of the auxiliary components, an additional prime mover may be used. For example, another internal combustion engine may be used and may have a relatively reduced rated output as compared to the prime mover used for driving the fracturing pump. However, the additional prime mover may have different fuel requirements, which may be costly and/or may be prone to producing significant additional undesirable emissions. Thus, the additional internal combustion engine may increase costs and result in higher emissions than desired.
Accordingly, Applicant has recognized a need for systems and methods that provide greater efficiency and/or reduced emissions when performing a fracturing operation. The present disclosure may address one or more of the above-referenced drawbacks, as well as other possible drawbacks.
The present disclosure generally is directed to systems and methods for supplying fuel to an internal combustion engine associated with a hydraulic fracturing system. For example, in some embodiments, a system to supply primary fuel and secondary fuel to operate an internal combustion engine may include a first manifold positioned to provide fluid flow from a primary fuel source of primary fuel to an internal combustion engine. The system also may include a primary valve associated with the first manifold and positioned to provide fluid flow between the primary fuel source and the internal combustion engine. The system further may include a second manifold positioned to provide fluid flow from a secondary fuel supply of secondary fuel to the internal combustion engine. The system still also may include one or more of a fuel pump or a secondary valve associated with the second manifold and positioned to provide fluid flow between the secondary fuel source and the internal combustion engine. The system still further may include a controller in communication with one or more of the primary valve, the fuel pump, or the secondary valve and may be configured to receive one or more signals indicative of one or more of a hydraulic power load on the internal combustion engine or an electric power load on the internal combustion engine. The controller also may be configured to determine, based at least in part on the one or more signals, a total power load on the internal combustion engine, and determine, based at least in part on the total power load, a first amount of primary fuel to supply to the internal combustion engine and a second amount of secondary fuel to supply to the internal combustion engine. The controller further may be configured to cause, based at least in part on the first amount and the second amount, one or more of the primary valve, the fuel pump, or the secondary valve to operate to supply the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel to the internal combustion engine.
According to some embodiments, a fracturing unit may include a chassis and a fracturing pump connected to the chassis and positioned to pump a fracturing fluid. The fracturing unit also may include a gas turbine engine connected to the chassis and positioned to convert fuel into a power output for operating the fracturing pump. The fracturing unit further may include a reciprocating-piston engine connected to the chassis and positioned to supply power to operate one or more of hydraulic auxiliary components or electrical auxiliary components associated with the fracturing unit. The fracturing unit also may include a first manifold positioned to provide fluid flow from a primary fuel source of primary fuel to the gas turbine engine and the reciprocating-piston engine. The fracturing unit still may include a second manifold positioned to provide fluid flow from a secondary fuel supply of secondary fuel to the reciprocating-piston engine. The fracturing unit additionally may include a controller configured to receive one or more signals indicative of operation of one or more of the hydraulic auxiliary components or the electrical auxiliary components, and determine, based at least in part on the one or more signals, a first amount of primary fuel to supply to the reciprocating-piston engine and a second amount of secondary fuel to supply to the reciprocating-piston engine. The controller also may be configured to cause, based at least in part on the first amount and the second amount, supply of the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel to the reciprocating-piston engine.
According to some embodiments, a method for supplying primary fuel and secondary fuel to a reciprocating-piston engine may include determining a total power load on the reciprocating-piston engine due to operation of one or more of hydraulic auxiliary components supplied with power by the reciprocating-piston engine or electrical auxiliary components supplied with power by the reciprocating-piston engine. The method further may include determining, based at least in part on the total power load, a first amount of primary fuel to supply to the reciprocating-piston engine and a second amount of secondary fuel to supply to the reciprocating-piston engine. The method further may include causing, based at least in part on the first amount and the second amount, one or more of: a primary valve to operate to supply the first amount of primary fuel to the reciprocating-piston engine, or one or more of a fuel pump or a secondary valve to operate to supply the second amount of secondary fuel to the reciprocating-piston engine.

In some examples, one or more of the hydraulic fracturing units 12 may include directly driven turbine (DDT) pumping units, in which fracturing pumps 18 are connected to one or more gas turbine engines (GTEs) 20 that supply power to the respective fracturing pump 18 for supplying fracturing fluid at high pressure and high flow rates to a formation. For example, a GTE 20 may be connected to a respective fracturing pump 18 via a reduction transmission connected to a drive shaft, which, in turn, is connected to an input shaft or input flange of a respective fracturing pump 18, which may be a reciprocating pump. Other types of GTE-to-fracturing pump arrangements are contemplated.
In some examples, one or more of the GTEs 20 may be a dual-fuel or bi-fuel GTE, for example, capable of being operated using of two or more different types of fuel, such as a gaseous fuel, for example, natural gas, and a fluid fuel, for example, diesel fuel, although other types of fuel are contemplated. For example, a dual-fuel or bi-fuel GTE may be capable of being operated using a first type of fuel, a second type of fuel, and/or a combination of the first type of fuel and the second type of fuel. For example, the fuel may include compressed natural gas (CNG), natural gas, field gas, pipeline gas, methane, propane, butane, and/or liquid fuels, such as, for example, diesel fuel (e.g., #2 Diesel), bio-diesel fuel, bio-fuel, alcohol, gasoline, gasohol, aviation fuel, and other fuels as will be understood by those skilled in the art. Gaseous fuels may be supplied by CNG bulk vessels, a gas compressor, a liquid natural gas vaporizer, line gas, and/or well-gas produced natural gas. Other types and sources of fuel and associated fuel supply sources are contemplated. The one or more GTEs 20 may be operated to provide horsepower to drive via a transmission one or more of the fracturing pumps 18 to safely and successfully fracture a formation during a well stimulation project or fracturing operation. Types of prime movers other than GTEs also are contemplated.
Although not shown in
The fracturing pumps 18 are driven by the GTEs 20 of the respective hydraulic fracturing units 12 and discharge the slurry (e.g., the fracturing fluid including the water, agents, gels, and/or proppants) at high pressure and/or a high flow rates through individual high-pressure discharge lines 24 into two or more high-pressure flow lines 26, sometimes referred to as “missiles,” on the frac manifold 22. The flow from the flow lines 26 is combined at the frac manifold 22, and one or more of the flow lines 26 provide flow communication with a manifold assembly, sometimes referred to as a “goat head.” The manifold assembly delivers the slurry into a wellhead manifold, sometimes referred to as a “zipper manifold” or a “frac manifold.” The wellhead manifold may be configured to selectively divert the slurry to, for example, one or more well heads via operation of one or more valves. Once the fracturing process is ceased or completed, flow returning from the fractured formation discharges into a flowback manifold, and the returned flow may be collected in one or more flowback tanks.
As shown in the detailed schematic view of an example system 28 for supplying primary fuel and secondary fuel to an example internal combustion engine 30 according to embodiments of the disclosure, one or more of the hydraulic fracturing units 12 also may include hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and electrical auxiliary components 34 for operating auxiliary components of the respective hydraulic fracturing unit 12, which may facilitate operation of the hydraulic fracturing unit 12. For example, the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 may be configured to supply hydraulic power for operation of hydraulic circuits on-board the hydraulic fracturing unit 12, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, including, for example, a hydraulic fluid reservoir, one or more hydraulic pumps for providing the hydraulic circuits with power, one or more flow control valves, metering valves, or check valves, and/or one or more hydraulic actuators, such as hydraulic motors and hydraulic cylinders for preforming functions associated with operation of the hydraulic fracturing unit 12. The electrical auxiliary components 34 may include one or more electrical power sources to provide electrical power for operation of electrical circuits (e.g., an electrical power generation device, batteries, solar panels, etc.), component controllers, instrumentation, sensors, and/or one or more electric actuators, such as electric motors and linear actuators, as will be understood by those skilled in the art. Other hydraulic and/or electrical components are contemplated.

In some examples, the controller 70 may determine a total power load on the internal combustion engine 30, for example, based at least in part on the one or more signals indicative of the hydraulic power load on the internal combustion engine 30 and/or the electric power load on the internal combustion engine 30. Based at least in part on the total power load, the controller 70 may also determine a first amount of primary fuel to supply to the internal combustion engine 30 and a second amount of secondary fuel to supply to the internal combustion engine 30. Based at least in part on this determination of the total power load, the controller 70 may be configured to cause the primary valve 54, associated with the flow of primary fuel to the internal combustion engine 30, the fuel pump 64, and/or the secondary valve 66, associated with the flow of secondary fuel to the internal combustion engine 30, to operate to supply the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel to the internal combustion engine 30.
In this example manner, the system 28 may provide fuel for operation from two (or more) different fuel sources to the internal combustion engine 30 for operation. In some examples, the primary fuel may be a gaseous fuel, such as, for example, compressed natural gas (CNG), natural gas, field gas, pipeline gas, methane, propane, and/or butane as will be understood by those skilled in the art. Gaseous fuels may be supplied by CNG bulk vessels, a gas compressor, a liquid natural gas vaporizer, line gas, and/or well-gas produced natural gas. In some examples, the primary fuel may be provided by the primary fuel source 36, which, in some examples, is the same source of the primary fuel supplied to the GTE 20. The secondary fuel, in some examples, may be a liquid fuel, such as, for example, diesel fuel (e.g., #2 Diesel), bio-diesel fuel, bio-fuel, alcohol, gasoline, gasohol, aviation fuel, and other fuels as will be understood by those skilled in the art. The secondary fuel may be supplied by the secondary fuel supply 62, which may be a fuel tank associated with the hydraulic fracturing unit 12 to which the internal combustion engine 30 is connected.
Thus, in some examples, the system 28 may be configured to supply both gaseous fuel and liquid fuel to the internal combustion engine 30 for operation. Some examples of the internal combustion engine 30 may be a reciprocating-piston diesel engine, or reciprocating-piston compression-ignition engine, which may be configured to operate using the primary fuel (e.g., natural gas), the secondary fuel (e.g., diesel fuel), or a combination of the primary fuel and secondary fuel. In some examples, operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using primary fuel that includes, or is limited to, natural gas may be relatively more cost-effective and/or may result in relatively reduced emissions as compared to operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using secondary fuel that includes, or is limited to, diesel fuel. Thus, during operation in which the internal combustion engine 30 is able to supply a sufficient amount of power using solely the primary fuel (e.g., natural gas) supplied by the primary fuel source 36 to meet the power demands of the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34, the system 28 may operate the internal combustion engine 30 using solely the primary fuel supplied by the primary fuel source 36, for example, to increase efficiencies and/or reduce emissions associated with operation of the internal combustion engine 30.
In some such examples of the internal combustion engine 30, operation using solely the primary fuel (e.g., natural gas) may result in a relatively reduced maximum power output as compared to operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using the secondary fuel (e.g., diesel fuel). Thus, for operational situations in which operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using solely the primary fuel supplied by the primary fuel source 36 would not result in supplying enough power to the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34 to meet the power demands of the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34, the system 28 may be configured to substitute secondary fuel (e.g., diesel fuel) supplied by the secondary fuel supply 62 for at least a portion of the primary fuel (e.g., natural gas) to meet the demands of the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34, for example, as explained in more detail herein. In some operational situations, the system 28 may be configured to operate the internal combustion engine 30 using solely secondary fuel supplied by the secondary fuel supply 62, for example, to achieve a maximum power output of the internal combustion engine 30.
Although not shown in
In some embodiments, the controller 70 may be configured to cause the first amount of primary fuel to decrease relative to the second amount of secondary fuel as the total power load on the internal combustion 30 increases. Because, in some examples, the secondary fuel supplied by the secondary fuel supply 62 may provide relatively more energy per unit mass or volume than the primary fuel supplied by the primary fuel source 36, as the load increases on the internal combustion engine, the controller 70 may increase the ratio of secondary fuel to primary fuel supplied to the internal combustion engine 30 to meet the increasing power load demand.
The controller 70 may, in some examples, may be configured to determine the first amount or primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel based at least in part on an efficiency of the primary fuel (e.g., an energy efficiency and/or a financial efficiency associated with the primary fuel) relative to an efficiency of the secondary fuel (e.g., an energy efficiency and/or a financial efficiency associated with the secondary fuel). For example, for operational situations in which operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using a combination of primary fuel and secondary fuel will provide a power output sufficient to meet the combined power demands from the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34, the controller 70 may be configured to determine the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel that meets the power demands with the highest efficiency.
In some examples, the controller 70 may be configured to determine the amount of primary fuel and the amount of secondary fuel for operation based at least in part on efficiency data accessed from a table stored in memory correlating the efficiency of the primary fuel, the efficiency of the secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine 30 operating using the primary fuel and the secondary fuel. For example, such correlations may be based on calculations according to theoretical, mathematical, and/or scientific determinations as a function of the efficiency of the primary fuel, the efficiency of the secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine 30 based on the combination of primary fuel and secondary fuel (e.g., a ratio of the amount of the primary fuel to the amount of the secondary fuel). In some examples, such correlations may be empirically-derived and/or estimated based at least in part on historical operation, testing, and/or simulated operation of the internal combustion engine 30.
In some embodiments, the controller 70 may be configured to determine the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of the secondary fuel for operation of the internal combustion engine 30, based at least in part on one or more formulas relating the efficiency of the primary fuel, the efficiency of the secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine using the primary fuel and the secondary fuel. For example, such formulas may be derived according to theoretical, mathematical, and/or scientific determinations relating the efficiency of the primary fuel, the efficiency of the secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine 30 based on the combination of primary fuel and secondary fuel (e.g., a ratio of the amount of the primary fuel to the amount of the secondary fuel). In some examples, such formulas may be empirically-derived and/or estimated based at least in part on historical operation, testing, and/or simulated operation of the internal combustion engine 30. During operation according to some examples, the amounts of primary and/or secondary fuel may be determined real-time, during operation of the internal combustion engine 30, for example, depending on the total power demand for operation of the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34.
According to some embodiments, the controller 70 may be configured to determine first expected emissions generated during operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using the first amount of primary fuel and/or second expected emissions generated during operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using the second amount of secondary fuel. For example, emissions generated by operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using the primary fuel may differ from emissions generated by operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using secondary fuel. Thus, in some examples, the controller 70 may be configured to estimate or determine first expected emissions generated during operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using the first amount of primary fuel and/or second expected emissions generated during operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using the second amount of secondary fuel. Based at least in part on this/these determination(s), the controller 70 may be configured to optimize the ratio of the first amount of primary fuel to the second amount of secondary fuel to achieve a desired emissions level (e.g., a lowest emissions level overall or per unit power output) during operation of the internal combustion engine 30.
In some embodiments, the controller 70 may be configured to determine the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel based at least in part on emissions data from a table correlating the first expected emissions from operation using primary fuel, the second expected emissions using secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine 30 operating using the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel. For example, such correlations may be based on calculations according to theoretical, mathematical, and/or scientific determinations as a function of the expected emissions due to operation using the primary fuel, the expected emissions due to operation using the secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine 30 based on the combination of primary fuel and secondary fuel (e.g., a ratio of the amount of the primary fuel to the amount of the secondary fuel). In some examples, such correlations may be empirically-derived and/or estimated based at least in part on historical operation, testing, and/or simulated operation of the internal combustion engine 30.
In some embodiments, the controller 70 may be configured to determine the first amount of primary fuel and second amount of the secondary fuel for operation of the internal combustion engine 30, based at least in part on one or more formulas relating the expected emissions from operation using the primary fuel, the expected emissions from operation using the secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine using the primary fuel and the secondary fuel. For example, such formulas may be derived according to theoretical, mathematical, and/or scientific determinations relating the expected emissions from operation using the primary fuel, the expected emissions from operation using the secondary fuel, and/or the power output of the internal combustion engine 30 based on the combination of primary fuel and secondary fuel (e.g., a ratio of the amount of the primary fuel to the amount of the secondary fuel). In some examples, such formulas may be empirically-derived and/or estimated based at least in part on historical operation, testing, and/or simulated operation of the internal combustion engine 30. During operation according to some examples, the amounts of primary and/or secondary fuel may be determined real-time, during operation of the internal combustion engine 30, for example, depending on the total power demand for operation of the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34.
In still other embodiments, the controller 70 may be configured to cause the internal combustion engine 30 to operate according to two or more phases, depending at least in part on the total power load from the hydraulic auxiliary components 32 and/or the electrical auxiliary components 34. For example, the two or more phases may include a first phase during which operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using a combination of the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel provides a power output at least equal to the total power load. The first amount of primary fuel may have an ability, when combusted, to produce a specific amount of energy, and similarly, the second amount of the secondary fuel may have an ability, when combusted, to produce a specific amount of energy. In some examples, according to operation during the first phase, the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel include an amount of energy at least equal to the total power load. For example, during the first phase, if the internal combustion engine 30 is able to supply a sufficient amount of power without using solely the secondary fuel to meet the total power demand, the controller 70 may cause the internal combustion engine 30 to substitute an amount of primary fuel for an amount of the secondary fuel while still providing an amount of power sufficient to meet the total power load demanded, for example, as described herein.
In some embodiments, the two or more phases may include a second phase, for example, when the total power load is greater than a maximum amount of power output the internal combustion engine 30 is capable of producing using a combination of the primary fuel and the secondary fuel. In some such examples, the controller 70 may be configured to cause operation of the internal combustion engine using solely secondary fuel, so that the internal combustion engine 30 may operate to provide an amount of power to meet the total power load demanded and/or provide its maximum power output.
In some embodiments of the system 28, during operation of the internal combustion engine 30 according to the first phase, the controller 70 may be configured to determine the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel based at least in part on a first efficiency of the primary fuel, a second efficiency of the secondary fuel, a first expected emissions generated during operation of the internal combustion engine using the first amount of primary fuel, and/or a second expected emissions generated during operation of the internal combustion engine 30 using the second amount of secondary fuel. In some examples, the effect of the efficiencies and/or emissions may be weighted, for example, to cause the effects to have a different level of influence on the outcome of the determination. For example, it may be desirable to achieve an operational efficiency of the internal combustion engine 30 that is above a threshold, and thus, the effects of the efficiencies of the primary and secondary fuel may be weighted relatively more heavily in the determination than the effects of emissions. Under some circumstances, the effect on emissions may be weighted relatively more heavily, for example, to reduce emissions to a level below a predetermined threshold, for example, to comply with government standards or regulations associated with emissions due to operation of the internal combustion engine 30.
During operation of the internal combustion engine 30, exhaust gas generated during combustion flows to the turbine 74 via the exhaust manifold 80 and the exhaust conduit 82, and energy in the exhaust gas is imparted to the turbine 74, causing it to spin and drive the compressor 76, which is in flow communication with an intake conduit 84, which supplies the compressed air to an intake manifold 86 of the internal combustion engine 30. Ambient intake air 88 is supplied via an intake 90 and the intake conduit 84 to the compressor 76 for compression. As shown, some examples, of the internal combustion engine 30 include an air filter 92 configured to remove or separate particulates from the air drawn into the intake 90.
As shown in
As shown, secondary fuel from the secondary fuel supply 62 may be pumped via the fuel pump 64 via the second manifold 60 through the secondary valve 66 to a fuel rail 94 and thereafter injected under pressure via fuel injectors directly into one or more cylinders 96 (e.g., into the combustion chambers) of a cylinder block 98 of the internal combustion engine 30. When operating using both primary fuel and secondary fuel, the primary fuel entering the intake manifold 86 and the secondary fuel entering the fuel rail 94, may be combined in the cylinders 96 (e.g., in the combustion chambers) for combustion by the internal combustion engine 30. By controlling operation of the primary valve 54, the fuel pump 64, and/or the secondary valve 66, the controller 70 is, in some examples, able to cause the internal combustion engine 30 to operate using solely primary fuel, solely secondary fuel, and/or a combination of primary fuel and secondary fuel. As explained previously herein, the controller 70 may be configured change the ratio of the amount of primary fuel to the amount of secondary fuel, for example, based on a load on the internal combustion engine 30, efficiencies associated with the primary fuel and/or the secondary fuel, and/or expected emissions from operation using the primary fuel and/or the secondary fuel.

In some embodiments, as shown in
The example method 600, at 602, may include determining a total power load on the reciprocating-piston engine due to operation of hydraulic auxiliary components supplied with power by the reciprocating-piston engine and/or electrical auxiliary components supplied with power by the reciprocating-piston engine. For example, a controller may receive one or more signals indicative of operation of one or more of the hydraulic auxiliary components or the electrical auxiliary components, for example, as described previously herein. In some examples, the one or more signals may include one or more signals generated by one or more sensors associated with the hydraulic auxiliary components or the electrical auxiliary components.
At 604, the example method 600 may further include determining a first amount of primary fuel to supply to the reciprocating-piston engine and a second amount of secondary fuel to supply to the reciprocating-piston engine, for example, based at least in part on the total power load. For example, the controller may be configured determine the first amount and the second amount based at least in part on an efficiency of the primary fuel relative to an efficiency of the secondary fuel, for example, as described previously herein. In some examples, the controller may be configured to determine the first amount and the second amount based at least in part on first expected emissions generated during operation of the reciprocating-piston engine using the first amount of primary fuel or second expected emissions generated during operation of the reciprocating-piston engine using the second amount of secondary fuel, for example, as previously described herein.
At 606, the example method 600 may also include causing a primary valve to operate to supply the first amount of primary fuel to the reciprocating-piston engine, for example, based at least in part on the first amount of the primary fuel and the second amount of the secondary. For example, the controller may be configured to cause the primary valve to open and/or meter primary fuel to supply the reciprocating-piston engine, for example, as described previously herein.
The example method 600, at 608, may further include causing a fuel pump and/or a secondary valve to operate to supply the second amount of secondary fuel to the reciprocating-piston engine, for example, based at least in part on the first amount of the primary fuel and the second amount of the secondary. For example, the controller may be configured to cause the fuel pump and/or the secondary valve to open and/or meter secondary fuel to supply the reciprocating-piston engine, for example, as described previously herein.
The example method 600, at 610, may also include causing the reciprocating-piston engine to operate according to two or more phases, depending at least in part on the total power load.
For example, at 612, the example method 600 may also include determining whether using a combination of the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of the secondary fuel provides a power output at least equal to the total power load. For example, the controller may determine whether the primary fuel has enough energy per unit mass to provide an amount of energy sufficient to supply the reciprocating piston-engine to provide a power output at least equal to the total power load. If so, a combination of the primary fuel and secondary fuel may be used to supply the reciprocating-piston engine.
If, at 612, it has been determined that using a combination of the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of the secondary fuel provides a power output at least equal to the total power load, at 614, the example method 600 may further include determining the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel based at least in part on considerations related to efficiency and/or emissions. For example, the considerations may relate to a first efficiency of the primary fuel, a second efficiency of the secondary fuel, a first expected emissions generated during operation of the reciprocating-piston engine using the first amount of primary fuel, and/or a second expected emissions generated during operation of the reciprocating-piston engine using the second amount of secondary fuel. For example, the controller may be configured to access tables and or perform calculations to determine a combination of the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of secondary fuel to provide a power output sufficient to meet the power demand corresponding to the total power load, for example, as described previously herein.
If, at 612, it has been determined that using a combination of the first amount of primary fuel and the second amount of the secondary fuel will not provide a power output at least equal to the total power load, at 616, however, the example method 600 further may include operating the reciprocating-piston engine using solely the secondary fuel. For example, as described above, the controller may determine that it is not possible to meet the total power load demand using any of the primary fuel and determine that the reciprocating-piston engine should be operated using solely the secondary fuel, which may produce more power than the primary fuel.
