摘要： A system 10 and method of operating the system 10 are disclosed. The system 10 includes a compressor 20, a combustion engine 30, and an input system 60. The compressor 20 is configured to mix and compress a liquid hydrocarbon fuel 15 and a first hydrocarbon gas fuel 17, thereby to form a liquid fuel mixture 21. The combustion engine 30 is disposed downstream of the compressor 20 and includes a dual fuel injection system 40 and a combustion chamber 50. The dual fuel injection system 40 includes a nozzle 42 that is configured to inject the liquid fuel mixture 21 into the combustion chamber 50 of the combustion engine 30. The input system 60 is fluidly connected with the combustion engine 30, and configured to inject air 62 and a second hydrocarbon gas fuel 64 into the combustion chamber 50.

摘要： A dual fuel engine is provided. The dual fuel engine includes an engine cylinder that is adapted to house a piston. A cylinder head is coupled with the engine cylinder. An inlet valve is adapted to inject a second fuel into the engine cylinder. A pre-combustion chamber is adapted to be coupled within the cylinder head to receive a first fuel via a micro-pilot fuel injector. As piston moves towards a top dead center pushing a portion of the second fuel into the pre-combustion chamber via a communication channel, the piston compresses the portion of the second fuel and the first fuel in the pre-combustion chamber for igniting the first fuel and combusting the second fuel. This generates a combustion flame. The pre-combustion chamber is adapted to allow the combustion flame to propagate from the pre-combustion chamber to the engine cylinder via the communication channel.

摘要： A dual-fuel engine has a primary fuel supply and a secondary fuel supply, the primary and secondary fuels being arranged in use to mix with each other and with air for combustion in one or more cylinders of the engine. The supply of both the primary and secondary fuels is arranged to be actively managed in accordance with a desired engine performance characteristic by an electronic controller. In one arrangement the supply of a primary fuel is arranged to be actively reduced when a secondary fuel is supplied to the engine.

摘要： A dual fuel engine (2) is provided which is supplied with diesel fuel and at least one secondary fuel, such as LPG. The engine (2) has a plurality of cylinders (4, 6, 8, 10) in which pistons reciprocate. Each cylinder has diesel injectors (4A, 6A, 8A, 10A) for injecting the diesel fuel into the cylinder during an appropriate stroke of the piston and an air inlet valve (4C, 6C, 8C, 10C) which opens during the appropriate stroke of the piston to permit air flow therethrough. Each cylinder is further provided with LPG injectors (4B, 6B, 8B, 10B) for injecting the secondary fuel into the cylinders. The LPG injectors are independent to and separate from the diesel fuel injectors. The LPG and diesel fuel injectors are also independently controlled.

摘要： A bi-fuel control system and assembly for modifying and operating a diesel engine to the extent that the engine is capable of running in either a full diesel fuel mode or a bi-fuel mode, where bi-fuel is defined as a mixture of a methane based gas and diesel fuel. The control system and assembly are designed to provide for either manual or automatic transfer between modes for continuous engine operation without interruption in output and at substantially equivalent efficiency levels. A gas control sub-system and sub-assembly are provided to control the amount of gas supplied to the diesel engine in the bi-fuel mode, and an electronic control sub-system and sub-assembly are provided to control the overall system and assembly based on engine load as determined from the intake manifold air pressure.

摘要： A standby generator includes a standby housing defining a cavity and an internal combustion engine. The engine includes an engine block including a cylinder comprising a piston, an engine housing at least partially covering the engine block, and a crankshaft configured to rotate about a vertical crankshaft axis in response to movement by the piston. The standby generator also includes an alternator configured to generate alternating current electrical power, a controller comprising a rectifier configured to convert the alternating current to a direct current and an inverter configured to convert the direct current to a clean alternating current electrical power, and a transfer switch configured to receive the clean alternating current electrical power from the controller and at least one of grid, solar, or battery power, and configured to supply power to an electrical load. The internal combustion engine, the alternator, and the controller are positioned within the cavity.
