Abstract:
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-Thompson 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-Thompson coefficient into the combustion chamber during a power stroke, thereby increasing an amount of work otherwise produced from the power stroke.

Abstract:
A vaporized fuel injection system for a combustion engine includes a fuel vaporization chamber and a two-way valve. The fuel vaporization chamber has a chamber input and a chamber output, and is connected with a fuel source via the chamber input. The fuel vaporization chamber is for vaporizing fuel input to the chamber input and outputting vaporized fuel to the chamber output. The two-way valve has first and second valve inputs and a valve output. The first valve input is connected to the chamber output, and the second valve input is connected to the fuel source. The two-way valve is switchable to allow fuel to flow from only one of the first or second valve inputs to the valve output.
Abstract:
In metal-on-metal sealing structures, the sealing criteria employed for high pressure liquid fuel does not work when sealing gaseous fuels. An improved method for sealing a gaseous fuel between gaseous fuel conduits in an internal combustion engine comprises forming a contact band between two surfaces of a sealing structure between a first conduit and a second conduit. A width of the contact band is at least equal to the larger of a minimum contact pressure width where contact pressure is at least equal to a predetermined minimum contact pressure; and a minimum yield zone width where at least one of the two surfaces have plastically deformed.
Abstract:
A metering system for a fuel atomizer includes a housing, first and second metering members, and at least one solenoid. The housing includes a mixing chamber. The first metering member is operable to control flow of oxidizer to the mixing chamber. The second metering member is arranged coaxial with the first metering member and operable to control flow of fuel to the mixing chamber. The at least one solenoid is configured to operate at least one of the first and second metering members.
