Disclosed is a turbocharged dual-fuel engine, including a first driving system, a second driving system, a third driving system and a fourth driving system. The first driving system, the second driving system, the third driving system and the fourth driving system have the same structure. The first driving system includes a cylinder body in a gas compression device, a gas delivery pipe, a one-dimensional internal combustion engine, a tenth motor, an axial-flow gas compressor and a first lever braking device in a natural gas storage device. The tenth motor is connected with the axial-flow gas compressor. The axial-flow gas compressor is driven by the tenth motor.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards free-piston combustion engines. As described herein, a driver section may be provided in a free-piston combustion engine for storing energy during an expansion stroke. The driver section may be configured to store sufficient energy to perform the subsequent stroke. In some embodiments, the driver section may be configured to store sufficient energy so as to enable the engine to operate continuously across engine cycles without electrical energy input. A linear electromagnetic machine may be provided in a free-piston combustion engine for converting the kinetic energy of a piston assembly into electrical energy.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards free-piston combustion engines. As described herein, a method and system are provided for displacing a free-piston assembly to achieve a desired engine performance by repeatedly determining position-force trajectories over the course of a propagation path and effecting the displacement of the free-piston assembly based, at least in part, on the position-force trajectory. In a dual-piston assembly free-piston engine, synchronization of the two piston assemblies is provided.

Motion control of a hydraulic free-piston engine is achieved in order to enable advanced combustions such as low temperature combustion. To accomplish this, an active controller acts as a virtual crankshaft, which causes a piston to follow a reference trajectory using energy from a storage element. Given the periodic nature of free-piston engine motion, an advanced controller of the present invention is preferably of robust repetitive type that is capable of tracking periodic reference signals.
