A valve group (10) is housed in a duct (40) of a support body (4) of an oil filtering assembly or a temperature management assembly. The valve group (10) is provided with a valve body (11) fixed to the support body (4), an obturator (15) fitted axially movably on the valve body (11) and obturator positioner and mover (18). The obturator (15) is movable by the obturator positioner and mover (18) as a function of the oil temperature values respectively in a first, a second and a third operating configuration, in which the oil is cooled, heated, for example by a heat exchanger, or sent directly to the filtering device. The obturator (15) is movable by the obturator positioner and mover (18) as a function of the oil pressure values directly to the filtering device, preventing oil access to the heat exchanger.

A method of reducing cold startup time of a genset which includes an engine and a generator for providing a requested power to a utility grid or load comprises determining if the generator is electrically coupled to a utility grid or load. In response to determining the generator is electrically coupled to the utility grid or load, a speed bias value is controlled in response to the power being produced by the genset. The speed bias signal represents a difference between a target power output and a current power output of the genset. The power of the engine is controlled using the speed bias value.

Apparatus (10) for a hydraulic valvetrain system (90) comprising: a first oil retaining means 5 (12), a second oil retaining means (20) and an oil conveyance means (14, 16) having a first end (18) operably connected to the first oil retaining means (12) and a second end (22) operably connected to the second oil retaining means (20). The second oil retaining means (20) is configured to receive oil from the first oil retaining means (12) via the oil conveyance means (14, 16), the first oil retaining means (12) is configured to receive oil from the oil 10 conveyance means (14, 16) and the oil conveyance means (14, 16) is configured to receive oil from the second oil retaining means (20).

A filter head of an engine includes a conduit extending along a longitudinal axis and a thermostat extending longitudinally within the conduit. The thermostat is movable between an open position and a closed position. The filter head also includes a sealing member positioned within the conduit downstream from the thermostat. The thermostat abuts the sealing member to inhibit flow through the conduit when in the open position and the thermostat is longitudinally spaced apart from the sealing member to permit axial flow of fluid through the conduit when in the closed position.

Provided is a chemical heat storage apparatus that includes a reactor that exchanges heat with a heating object and includes a reaction material generating heat via chemical reaction with a reaction medium, the reaction medium being desorbed from the reaction material when heat is given, a reservoir storing the reaction medium, a reaction medium flow system allowing the reaction medium to flow between the reactor and the reservoir, a heat generation control unit controlling the reaction medium flow system, and an exhaust gas utilization unit desorbing the reaction medium from the reaction material via heat of exhaust gas discharged from an internal combustion engine and heating the heating object via the heat of the exhaust gas when a temperature of the exhaust gas reaches a predetermined temperature or more.

A lubrication circuit comprising an oil tank (4) integrated into a first lubricated chamber (5) comprises an evacuation conduit (20) on a recovery conduit (10) from lubricated chambers of the circuit leading to the reservoir (4), opening up into an outlet (21) when an excessive pressure in the tank, that is a symptom of progressive filling, is reached. Application to aircraft engine lubrication circuits, particularly to guard against fuel leaks in the lubricant as a result of a defective heat exchanger.

An engine unit including a heater provided in a blow-by gas returning path for returning a blow-by gas that leaks out from a combustion chamber of an engine to an intake path. The heater is electrically connected to a controller of the engine through wiring harnesses. The controller is configured to, while controlling energization of the heater, perform an abnormality detection on the wiring harness based on a magnitude of current flowing to the wiring harness during energization of the heater, and perform an abnormality detection on the heater and the wiring harnesses based on a magnitude of voltage applied to the wiring harness located downstream from the heater during non-energization of the heater.
