    Abstract: Internal combustion engines, including engines producing power from solid or slow burning fuel(s), such as biological-based or petroleum-based fuels, wood, corn, biomass, coal, and waste products, and/or possibly other liquid or gaseous fluids, as well as methods for operating or implementing such engines, are disclosed herein. In an example embodiment, the engine includes a crankshaft, a piston, a cylinder having an internal cavity and several ports, and an assembly having a chamber having a first region within which solid fuel can be situated and combusted. The assembly further includes a diverter valve so that, depending upon a setting of the valve and during engine operation, first and second amounts of compressed air respectively proceed to the first region and to bypass the first region, and a combination of combustion products and the second amount proceeds via one of the ports to the part of the internal cavity.

    Abstract: A metal fuel powered driving system comprises: a cylinder; a piston disposed movably in and cooperating with the cylinder to define a combustion chamber; an arc generating unit including first and second electrodes extending into the combustion chamber, the first electrode being in the form of a first active metal wire; and a first wire supplying unit configured to feed the first active metal wire into the combustion chamber. When the power supplying source applies a voltage to the first and second electrodes, electric arc is generated between the first active metal wire and the second electrode to vaporize and combust the metal wire for driving movements of the piston. A method of driving a piston in a cylinder is also disclosed.

    Abstract: An ignition apparatus for an internal combustion engine comprises an intake path supplying a mixture of air and fuel into the combustion chamber of the engine, a particle supplying unit having an ejection port opening into the combustion chamber for supplying minute particles of a material which is not the fuel and has a high light absorption factor, and a light source radiating a laser beam through a light focusing unit toward a suitably selected position in the internal space of the combustion chamber, so that the laser beam can strike the minute particles of high light absorption factor supplied from the particle supplying unit thereby producing a torch for igniting the air-fuel mixture.

    Abstract: The instant invention is to a new fuel system, which will allow operation of large scale electrical power generating facilities at a fraction of the cost of coal or natural gas fueled facilities and will not produce significant heat, exhaust emission gases, or particulate pollution. Because of the nature of the chemical reaction exploited in the system, it is denominated an instant entropy system (“IES”). The fuel used by the inventive IES produces gas expansion, but not from an oxidation/combustion reaction, and it does not produce oxidative exothermic heat. The IES utilizes a material first developed in the early part of the twentieth century—triacetone triperoxide (TAP).

    Abstract: A coke burning engine is described wherein hot coke fuel chunks are first compressed with air and reacted therewith to form a carbon monoxide rich gas, during a compression cycle time period. Next these primary reacted gases are mixed into and burned with secondary air during a blowdown cycle time period. These fully reacted gases are expanded though an expander engine whose power output drives the air compressor, and yields a net useful engine power output.
