Explosion Safe Electrolysis Unit
A multi-chamber assembly safely stores enhancement gas for efficient and complete combustion of a carbonaceous fuel is presented. The multi-chamber assembly safely stores the enhancement gas, for example, for use by the internal combustion engine such as an internal combustion engine of a vehicle and/or a generator.

Ultra Low Enhancement Gas Injection
A system for efficient combustion of a carbonaceous fuel is presented. An ultra low quantity of enhancement gas may be introduced to an internal combustion engine to improve at least one operating metric of the internal combustion engine such as fuel economy and/or reduce engine-out emissions, for example in a vehicle or generator.

OPTIMIZED FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR DIRECT INJECTION ETHANOL ENHANCEMENT OF GASOLINE ENGINES
Fuel management system for enhanced operation of a spark ignition gasoline engine. Injectors inject an anti-knock agent such as ethanol directly into a cylinder. It is preferred that the direct injection occur after the inlet valve is closed. It is also preferred that stoichiometric operation with a three way catalyst be used to minimize emissions. In addition, it is also preferred that the anti-knock agents have a heat of vaporization per unit of combustion energy that is at least three times that of gasoline.
Explosion safe electrolysis unit
A dual-chamber electrolysis vessel safely stores HHO gas for use by an internal combustion engine.

Refrigerant allocation between automotive HVAC and engine air/fuel cooling
An engine fuel and air cooling system for vehicles exchanges heat between a coolant and air conditioning system refrigerant. The system provides a cabin cooling only mode, a cabin and engine fuel and air cooling mode, and an engine fuel and air cooling only mode. A refrigerant distribution manifold distributes the refrigerant for each mode. The engine fuel and air cooling is provided to a supercharger intercooler to cool air provided to the engine, and to fuel rails to cool fuel provided to the engine. In one embodiment the fuel rails include an inner fuel path surrounded by a coolant path to cool the fuel provided to fuel injectors.

Engine
The purpose of the present invention is to provide an engine with reforming cylinders which are fuel reforming devices capable of supplying a reformed fuel according to the outputs of outputting cylinders. The engine is provided with the outputting cylinders for burning the fuel and the reforming cylinders which are the fuel reforming devices for reforming the fuel through the reciprocating motions of pistons. The amount of reformed fuel supplied to all the outputting cylinders is changed according to the outputs of the outputting cylinders while maintaining the amount of supplied fuel and the amount of suctioned gas, which are supplied into one reforming cylinder.
