    Abstract: An internal combustion engine includes a first low-pressure cylinder housing a first low-pressure piston, and a first high-pressure cylinder housing a first high-pressure piston, the first high-pressure cylinder being arranged in upstream fluid communication with the first low-pressure cylinder for providing exhaust gas into the first low-pressure cylinder. The internal combustion engine further includes a second low-pressure cylinder housing a second low-pressure piston, the second low-pressure cylinder being arranged in upstream fluid communication with the first high-pressure cylinder for providing compressed gas into the first high-pressure cylinder, and a second high-pressure cylinder housing a second high-pressure piston, the second high-pressure cylinder being arranged in downstream fluid communication with the first low-pressure cylinder for receiving compressed gas from the first low-pressure cylinder, and further arranged in upstream fluid communication with the second low-pressure cylinder for providing exhaust gas into the second low-pressure cylinder.

    Abstract: An inlet-valve arrangement is for an external-heat engine, which includes at least one working chamber, each one having a cooperating piston. The working chamber is supplied with a working fluid via at least one controlled poppet valve. The poppet valve is arranged to open in the opposite direction to the flow direction of the working fluid. The center axis of the poppet valve is arranged perpendicularly within a deviation of ±45 degrees relative to the center axis of the piston.

    Abstract: A split-cycle air-hybrid engine includes a rotatable crankshaft. A compression piston is slidably received within a compression cylinder and operatively connected to the crankshaft. An expansion piston is slidably received within an expansion cylinder and operatively connected to the crankshaft. A crossover passage interconnects the compression and expansion cylinders. The crossover passage includes a crossover compression (XovrC) valve and a crossover expansion (XovrE) valve defining a pressure chamber therebetween. An air reservoir is operatively connected to the crossover passage. An air reservoir valve selectively controls air flow into and out of the air reservoir. The engine is operable in an Air Expander and Firing (AEF) mode. In the AEF mode, the pressure in the air reservoir is greater than or equal to approximately 5 bar absolute, preferably greater than or equal to approximately 7 bar absolute, and more preferably greater than or equal to approximately 10 bar absolute.
