摘要:
A thermodynamic engine converts the superheated steam of at least one working medium into kinetic energy using a decompression device. Said engine includes a low-temperature circuit, in which a first working medium is transported through a first heat exchanger and subsequently through the decompression device and a high-temperature circuit, in which a second working medium is transported through a second heat exchanger and subsequently through the decompression device. The first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger are located in the exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, and the internal combustion engine a coolant circuit can be used to heat the working mediums in separate collection containers.

摘要:
A reformer system has a reformer for converting a hydrocarbon-containing fuel to a hydrogen-gas-rich reformate gas, and an HC adsorber, which is connected to an output side of the reformer and adsorbs, as a function of temperature, hydrocarbons contained in the reformate gas, or for desorbing previously adsorbed hydrocarbons to the reformate gas. The reformer system transmits the reformate gas after passing through the HC adsorber to a consuming device. The chronological progression of the adsorption/desorption behavior of the HC adsorber during an operating phase of the reformer as a function of the reformate gas temperature occurring in the operating phase and/or a temperature gradient of the reformate gas occurring in the operating phase is coordinated with the chronological progression of the operating behavior of the consuming device such that a significant desorption of hydrocarbons from the HC adsorber takes place only when the consuming device is in an operating condition in which the desorbed hydrocarbons are processed by the consuming device such that the hydrocarbon fraction of the gases expelled from the consuming device and/or the function of the consuming device is/are not significantly influenced by the desorbed hydrocarbons.

A vehicle reforming system includes a reformer for chemically converting a hydrocarbon-containing fuel to a hydrogen-gas-rich reformate gas, as well as electric heating devices by which thermal energy for generating a reaction temperature required for the conversion may be fed to the reformer. The reformer system also has a high-performance capacitor, which supplies the electric heating devices with electric current.
摘要:
In a power control system for motor vehicles with a plurality of power-converting elements as well as sensors for determining the efficiency of the individual elements, a processor determines the overall system efficiency from the efficiencies of the individual components, and calculates and adjusts a value for a parameter that influences the efficiency of at least one component to achieve an optimum total efficiency. Surplus power is used to charge an energy storage device. Preferably the parameters that influence the efficiency, whose values are adjusted to achieve an optimum total efficiency, are the power, or a parameter that is proportional to the power, that is to be delivered by a power-generating component, and/or the rpm or a parameter that is proportional to the rpm of a component.
摘要:
An operating method for a system including a reformer which in reformate mode can convert hydrocarbon-containing fuel to a hydrogen-rich reformate gas, and a catalytic exhaust gas aftertreatment device which is acted upon by reformer gas to reach the catalytic converter light-off temperature more rapidly. During cold starts, the reformer, after its own starting phase, is initially operated in a so-called lean-burn mode, and the reformer is switched from lean-burn mode to reformate mode as soon as combustible constituents in the catalytic aftertreatment device can be independently oxidized. During the reformer lean-burn mode, the combustible constituents of the engine's exhaust gas react with the hot reformer gas, such that the cumulative exhaust gas flow has the composition of exhaust gas generated by stoichiometric combustion.

摘要:
A method is provided for operating a bivalent internal combustion engine, which may run lean with using a fuel with wide inflammability limits, such as hydrogen, whereby a first lean region close to the stoichiometric air ratio and a second lean region, adjacent to the first in the direction of greater λ valve are defined. The operation in the first lean region is skipped such that operation occurs either in the second lean region or at an approximately stoichiometric air ratio.
