摘要:
This invention refers to the operation of a rotary internal combustion engine, having an injected fuel combustion process, whereby fuel is ignited and burned in an excess of air compressed to a temperature below said fuel ignition temperature, and whereby the fuel is injected at a temperature above said fuel ignition temperature.
摘要:
Liquid gasoline introduced from a suitable source into a treatment tank of the system is transformed into a relatively dry vaporous state substantially free from large droplets or similar particles. Pellets within an outer chamber of the vessel are propelled by air streams into engagement with each other, and with walls of the vessel, and generate frictional heat. Baffle members in an inner chamber of the vessel reduce the size of droplets of gasoline in such chamber. Dry gas is conducted from the treatment vessel to a holding tank, from whence it is supplied to the intake manifold of the engine. Valves of the system are operated in response to actuation of an accelerator associated with the engine. Liquid gasoline from a lower portion of the vessel is supplied to the intake manifold of the engine during initial start-up, and at other times when no dry gasoline vapor is present within the holding tank.
摘要:
A method for operating an internal combustion engine including a combustion chamber and configured to perform at least a compression stroke and a power stroke. The method comprises direct injecting a first substance having a positive Joule-Thomson coefficient into the combustion chamber during a compression stroke, thereby reducing an amount of work otherwise may be used to perform the compression stroke and direct injecting a second substance having a negative Joule-Thomson coefficient into the combustion chamber during a power stroke, thereby increasing an amount of work otherwise produced from the power stroke.
摘要:
A method for supplying gaseous fuel from a liquid state to an internal combustion engine includes employing a second internal combustion engine as a source of energy, pumping the gaseous fuel in the liquid state by transforming energy from the source of energy into mechanical work for the pumping, exchanging waste heat from the second internal combustion engine in a first heat exchange fluid circulating through the second internal combustion engine to a second heat exchange fluid, vaporizing the gaseous fuel pumped from the liquid state with heat from the second heat exchange fluid, and delivering the gaseous fuel vaporized from the liquid state to the internal combustion engine. Pressure of the gaseous fuel delivered to the internal combustion engine is maintained within a predetermined range of tolerance by the pumping.
摘要:
A fuel system for an auxiliary power unit includes a mechanical fuel pump, an electric fuel pump, and a controller. The mechanical fuel pump provides fuel flow to the auxiliary power unit and has an output dependent upon an operational speed of the auxiliary power unit. The electric fuel pump is located in flow series with the mechanical fuel pump. The controller causes the electric fuel pump to circulate and thereby warm fuel prior to start up of the auxiliary power unit.
