    摘要: A process fluid cooler can extract thermal energy from a process fluid including carbon dioxide. An absorber can transfer carbon dioxide from the process fluid to a removal fluid. A reboiler can heat the removal fluid so as to cause carbon dioxide to be released from the removal fluid and outputted as part of a reboiler output stream. The reboiler can also output a heating fluid. A stripper condenser can extract thermal energy from the reboiler output stream so as to cause condensation of water associated with the reboiler output stream and to remove carbon dioxide therefrom. A compression system can remove thermal energy from carbon dioxide received from the stripper condenser. A heat engine can be configured to operate according to an organic Rankine cycle, receiving thermal energy from the heating fluid and/or extracted at the process fluid cooler, at the stripper condenser, and/or at the compression system.

    摘要: A fuel injector (10) for an internal combustion engine (88) includes a centerbody (12) and a casing (14) disposed radially outward of the centerbody to define an annular mixing section (16) between the centerbody and the casing. The fuel injector also includes an air inlet (e.g., 18) of the mixing section for injecting a first portion (22) of combustion air into the mixing section. A fuel inlet (32) is disposed in the centerbody for injecting fuel (34) into the mixing section. A fuel conduit (48) disposed in the centerbody conducts the fuel to the fuel inlet and a valve (50) disposed in the fuel conduit selectively controls fuel injection into the mixing section. The valve may be positioned sufficiently close to the fuel inlet to provide the desired accurate timed injection. The injector also includes an outlet (19) of the mixing section for discharging a fuel/air mixture (60).
