Abstract: A combustion control system for a dual fuel engine includes a combustion control unit structured to receive phasing data for combustion of a main charge of gaseous fuel ignited by way of pilot shots of a liquid fuel, output a pilot fueling command based on the phasing data, and output a valve timing command. The combustion control unit is further structured to vary a phasing of combustion of a main charge of a gaseous fuel ignited by pilot shots of a liquid fuel based on an adjustment to at least one of a pilot shot delivery parameter or a valve timing parameter such as intake valve closing timing from a first engine cycle to a second engine cycle. Control of the intake valve timing can be based on a main pilot shot timing error.

Abstract: Operating a dual fuel engine system includes igniting a main charge of gaseous fuel in response to combustion of an early pilot shot of liquid fuel and production of a spark. Operating the system also includes covarying a spark timing parameter and a pilot shot delivery parameter, and reducing an error in a phasing of combustion of another main charge based on the covarying of the spark timing parameter and the pilot shot delivery parameter.

Abstract: A liquid fuel injector for a fuel system in an internal combustion engine includes two injection control valves for controlling two outlet checks. A common nozzle supply cavity is fluidly connected to an inlet passage and supplies each of the two sets of nozzle outlets opened and closed by the outlet checks. A first nozzle outlet set forms a narrower spray angle and has a first combination of outlet number and outlet size, and a second nozzle outlet set forms a wider spray angle and has a second combination of outlet number and outlet size. The first nozzle outlet set has a greater steady flow than the second nozzle outlet set.

Abstract: A method of operating a dual-fuel combustion system includes reciprocating a piston between a bottom dead center and a top dead center of a cylinder, the piston including a piston bowl, a circumferentially extending recess located radially outside of the piston bowl, and a plurality of diverters in the recess. The method includes opening an intake valve to introduce a first fuel, and injecting, by a set of fuel injector orifices substantially aligned with the diverters, a second fuel toward the diverters. The method also includes autoigniting the second fuel to ignite the first fuel.

Abstract: A piston for an internal combustion engine includes a piston head having a central axis and a top surface. The top surface of the piston includes a piston bowl, a circumferentially extending recess located radially outside the piston bowl, a plurality of diverters located within the recess, and a crown portion located radially outside the recess and extending to an outer surface of the piston.

Abstract: A fuel system includes a fuel injector having a fuel passage and a purging fluid passage formed therein. A nozzle tip inner surface defines a sac forming a blind end of the fuel passage in the fuel injector. A coaxial concentric check assembly includes a purging check movable to admit a purging fluid such as pressurized air into the fuel passage to purge the sac of fuel. Reduced injector dribble is observed from the purging of fuel.

Abstract: A fuel injector for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The fuel injector includes a tip in fluid connection with a combustion chamber of the engine and includes an orifice for injecting fuel as a fuel jet. The fuel injector includes a protruding member in fluid connection with the first orifice extending from the tip at a protruding angle. The orifice injects the fuel jet into the first protruding member. The fuel injector includes a plurality of extension members in fluid connection with the protruding member and includes at least, a first extension member and a second extension member. The first and second extension members may extend from the protruding member at extension angles. The fuel jet may be distributed into, at least, a first distributed jet and a second distributed jet when the first fuel jet flows from the protruding member to the first plurality of extension members.
