    Abstract: Apparatus and a process are described for compressing superheated steam into porous coal batches in chambers, and, after a time interval, expanding this steam out of the chambers, and repeating this steam cycle of compression followed by expansion. Thusly heated by the steam, volatile matter separates from the solid coke portion of the coal and separate volatile matter and coke products can be produced from coal or biomass fuels. These volatile matter liquids and tars can be used as fuel components in slurry fuels, for internal combustion engines used in our surface transportation industries. These solid coke products can be used as boiler fuel in steam electric plants. In this way our large domestic reserves of coal can be used as a fuel source, not only for electric power generation, but also for our surface transportation needs.

    Abstract: A common rail supplementary atomizer of this invention, when used on a piston internal combustion engine, equipped with a common rail fuel injection system, improves slurry atomization, following injection, by expansion of gases, previously dissolved in the water phase of the slurry. This gas expansion separates the several fuel particles in each slurry droplet formed first during fuel injection. The thusly separated fuel particles subsequently burn more rapidly and completely, due to this fuel particle separation improving air access to the fuel. Apparatus is described for dissolving atomizing gas into the water phase of the slurry, in a contactor chamber at a pressure greater than the pressure prevailing in the engine cylinder volume, at the time of slurry injection.

    Abstract: Improved combination apparatus is described for creating a fuel rich mixture in a displacer volume, separate from the combustion chamber of a piston internal combustion engine. This mixture is subsequently delivered into the engine combustion chamber, to create a stratified mixture, which is then ignited and burned only in the engine combustion chamber. By use of such stratified mixtures, several benefits over the prior art can be achieved, including: reduced engine friction losses, and consequently improved efficiency; reduced soot formation and engine exhaust emissions; more complete utilization of available air and increased engine power per unit of displacement.

    Abstract: A multifuel internal combustion Stirling engine is described, wherein a compressor piston and a displacer piston reciprocate, within a common cylinder, to enclose a variable air volume, and a variable burned gas volume. Motion of these two pistons, creates a power producing cycle, of compression, combustion, expansion, and scavenge, wherein the burned gases do not contact those cylinder portions over which the compressor piston moves. In this way low engine wear can be obtained when using fuels such as coal, which produces abrasive particulates in the burned gases. A multifuel internal combustion engine of this invention can be readily adapted to operate on a wide variety of fuels, such as, natural gas, diesel fuel, residual petroleum fuel, and coal. Widespread use of these engines would introduce economic competition between these now separately competing fuels. This is a clear route to national energy independence, since coal reserves greatly exceed petroleum reserves, nationally and internationally.

    Abstract: The gasoline engine torque regulator described herein provides means of reducing the quantities of harmful oxides of nitrogen emitted via the exhaust of a four stroke cycle gasoline engine and also of increasing the efficiency of the engine at part load, with an engine torque characteristic either approximately constant with engine speed or alternatively controllably decreasing with increasing engine speed. These beneficial objects are achieved by adjustably delaying the closing of the engine intake valve as a means of controlling the engine torque, the opening of the intake valve remaining fixed. This manner of intake valve opening and closing can be achieved by adding to the conventional intake valve operating mechanism a dashpot device with a check valve and a positive displacement flow regulator. The check valve allows ready flow of the dashpot fluid between dashpot chambers when the intake valve is being opened but closes and forces fluid to flow oppositely, during intake valve closing, at least partially via the positive displacement flow regulator which proportions the flow and hence the rate of valve closure to the speed of the engine. With intake valve closing thereby delayed, a portion of the air-fuel mixture, drawn into the engine cylinder during the intake stroke, is pushed back into the intake manifold during the compression stroke. As a result less air-fuel mixture remains in the engine cylinder and the engine torque is reduced, the extent of such torque reduction increasing as the intake valve closing is longer delayed. The engine compression ratio is reduced at reduced torque and, in consequence, gas temperatures during compression, combustion and expansion are reduced, producing a beneficial decrease in the quantities of oxides of nitrogen formed and subsequently emitted. Part load efficiency of the engine is increased because pumping work is essentially eliminated.

    Abstract: This invention provides a valve drive mechanism which positively opens and closes the valves of a gasoline engine at all speeds and provides a flow of cooling oil to the valves. Additionally this mechanism permits control of engine torque by delay of the closing of the engine intake valve and thus reduces the emmissions of oxides of nitrogen. This valve drive mechanism consists of oil pumps driving the valve open and closed via selector valves connecting to a hydraulic valve actuator.
