摘要:
Inside an engine compartment (53) of a vehicle, an ammonia concentration sensor (50) is arranged above a liquid ammonia injector (13) which is attached to an internal combustion engine body (1) and to the rear in a direction of progression of the vehicle. An ammonia concentration which is detected by the ammonia concentration sensor (50) is used as the basis to judge if ammonia is leaked.
摘要:
A hydrogen generator provided with a cracker which cracks a compound containing hydrogen atoms and nitrogen atoms to generate hydrogen, a compound feeder which feeds the compound to the cracker, and an oxygen feeder which feeds oxygen to the cracker. The cracker includes catalyst particles which promote the cracking of the compound and catalyst particles which promote the oxidation of the compound. The cracker is fed with the compound and oxygen, causes the compound to oxidize to generate heat of oxidation, and uses the generated heat of oxidation to crack the compound.

In a fuel injection control system for an internal combustion engine provided with a low pressure fuel pump (1) and a high pressure fuel pump (2), a feed pressure is made as low as possible, while suppressing generation of vapor. Proportional plus integral control of the high pressure fuel pump (2) is carried out so as to make the pressure of fuel come close to a target value between the high pressure fuel pump (2) and fuel injection valves (7), wherein in cases where the high pressure fuel pump (2) is in operation, the feed pressure, which is a pressure of fuel between the low pressure fuel pump (1) and the high pressure fuel pump (2), is caused to go down when an integral term in the proportional plus integral control does not change or is decreasing, and the feed pressure is caused to go up when the integral term is increasing. On the other hand, in cases where the high pressure fuel pump (2) is in a stopped state, the feed pressure is made higher than before the high pressure fuel pump (2) is stopped.
摘要:
An internal combustion engine in which ammonia which is fed into a combustion chamber (5) is ignited by an ignition device which is arranged in the combustion chamber (5). As this ignition device, at least one plasma jet ignition plug (6) which emits a plasma jet or a plurality of spark plugs (6') which generate sparks are used.
摘要:
In a fuel supply apparatus for an internal combustion engine, fuel is delivered to a high pressure fuel pump (7) driven by an internal combustion engine, using an electrically-operated low pressure fuel pump (6), and the fuel pressurized by the high pressure fuel pump (7) is supplied to the internal combustion engine. The fuel supply apparatus includes a low pressure pump control portion (42) that controls the low pressure fuel pump (6) to avoid a discharge failure in the high pressure fuel pump (7) due to insufficiency of a feed pressure at which the low pressure fuel pump (6) delivers the fuel to the high pressure fuel pump (7). The low pressure pump control portion (42) stops the low pressure fuel pump (6) in a case where the discharge failure in the high pressure fuel pump (7) is avoided even when the feed pressure is equal to a gauge pressure of 0.
摘要:
A fuel feed system which causes liquid fuel to evaporate so as to feed gaseous fuel, provided with an evaporator which includes a heater which heats the liquid fuel to vaporize it and an electric heater which adjusts the temperature of the heater. The heater has a heat conduction surface which supplies heat to the liquid fuel. A difference between the temperature of the heat conduction surface of the heater and the boiling point of the fuel at the evaporator is used as the basis to change the temperature of the heater and adjust the heat flux at the heat conduction surface.
摘要:
In a fuel injection nozzle for an internal combustion engine, a first cavity (32) is disposed downstream of a valve seat (12) in a direction in which fuel flows. A second cavity (36) is disposed downstream of the first cavity (32) in the direction in which the fuel flows. A fuel passage (34) connects the first cavity (32) to the second cavity (36). Fuel injection holes (24) lead to the second cavity (36). With this configuration, when the fuel flows through the first fuel passage (34), cavitation is induced. Cavitation bubbles flow into the second cavity (36) along with the fuel. When the fuel is retained in the second cavity (36), the cavitation bubbles are uniformly mixed into the fuel. The fuel, which has been sufficiently mixed with the cavitation bubbles, is injected from the fuel injection holes (24).
