Abstract:
A hydraulic system having an actuator having a piston and associated rod forming head and rod chambers and being adapted to move between retracted and extended positions within a cylinder, and first and second sources of fluid. A first pump provides fluid from the first source to the head chamber at a first pressure. At least one valve provides fluid from the second source at a second pressure to supplement fluid provided to the head chamber from the first pump when the second pressure is greater than the first pressure.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a system for running an engine. The system includes a first tank, a second tank, a pump, a vaporizer, and a heat source. The first tank stores liquid natural gas (LNG). The pump is in communication with the first tank and is configured to pump the LNG from the first tank. The vaporizer is in communication with the pump. The vaporizer is configured to receive the LNG from the first tank via the pump and convert the LNG into compressed natural gas (CNG). The second tank is in communication with the vaporizer. The second tank is configured to store CNG. A heat source is in communication with the second tank. The heat source uses the stored CNG to apply heat to the vaporizer.
