An internal combustion engine includes an intake conduit fluidically coupled to ambient fluid and having an internal cross-sectional area and an engine cylinder fluidically coupled to the intake conduit. A fluidic amplifier is disposed within the intake conduit and is fluidically coupled to the ambient fluid and engine cylinder. The amplifier is further fluidically coupled to a source of primary fluid and is configured to introduce the primary fluid and at least a portion of the ambient fluid to the engine cylinder.

A suction tube of a stratified scavenging engine that can improve the flexibility in designing the shapes and layouts of an air-fuel mixture passage and an air passage; allow for continuous and smooth changes in the shapes of the cross sections of the air-fuel mixture passage and the air passage from the inlet side toward the outlet side; reduce the number of components; and facilitate attachment and assembly; and that is also advantageous in terms of cost is provided. The suction tube includes an air-fuel mixture passage and an air passage, inlet and outlet sides of the passages being connected to a carburetor and a cylinder, respectively; a cylindrical exterior member that mainly forms an outer perimeter portion of each of the air-fuel mixture passage and the air passage; and an interior member for dividing the inside of the cylindrical exterior member into the air-fuel mixture passage and the air passage. With the use of elastic deformation of the interior member or the cylindrical exterior member, the interior member is attached to and integrally formed with the inside of the cylindrical exterior member.

A process and device for using a PSA oxygen concentrator to provide a high oxygen air intake mass into the combustion chambers of an ICE in order to improve gasoline mileage, reduce undesirable exhaust components and allow a TWC to come into full operation more quickly. A method of improving the quality of an air mass taken into the PSA device is taught. Both a retrofit methodology using commercially available PSA concentrators and a method of using component parts of same to create a differing architectural arrangement suited to fit the particular needs or spaces are presented.

The proposed solution relates to a fuel nozzle for the injection of hydrogen into a combustion chamber of an engine, the fuel nozzle including, for provision of a hydrogen-air mixture, a nozzle head having outflow openings (19, 21) at an end face of the nozzle head. Multiple first outflow openings for hydrogen to be injected and at least one second outflow opening for air to be injected are present at the end face for the provision of the hydrogen-air mixture, where the at least one second outflow opening has a polygonal cross section and the multiple first outflow openings at the end face are arranged around the at least one second outflow opening.

A method and device for controlling emissions of VOC's comprises transporting VOC's to an engine and transporting the exhaust from the engine into a manifold. Supplemental air is transporting into the manifold and heat is transferred from the exhaust to the supplemental air within the manifold. The supplemental air is mixed with the exhaust and the mixture is transferred to a pollution abatement device.

A carburetor for a two-stroke internal combustion engine whereby airtightness is maintained and intake of uncombusted fuel into an air path is prevented. The carburetor includes a circular cylindrical valve hole and a rotary valve fitted into the valve hole such that it can rotate and is disposed perpendicularly across a fuel intake path and an air intake path which are formed substantially parallel with respect to each other, and a fuel supply-side bore which controls the flow rate along the fuel intake path and the air supply-side bore which controls the air capacity along the air path pass through part of the cylindrical portion perpendicularly to the axial direction of the rotary valve, and annular recesses formed in part of a circumferential wall of an outer circumference of the rotary valve so as not to correspond to at least the fuel supply-side bore and the air supply-side bore.

The present invention pertains to a gas mixer for an internal combustion engine for mixing air with at least one admix gas, comprising a first duct segment having a first tube section and a first cone section, and a second duct segment having a second tube section and a second cone section. The first and second duct segments are stackable such that in a stacked state, a main gas conduit is formed by the first and second tube sections and an admix gas conduit is formed between the first cone section and the second duct segment. The present disclosure also pertains to a method for producing a gas mixer, comprising the steps of: for a predetermined mass flow of a gas to be admixed to air, calculating a flow cross section; machining at least one inner surface of an admix gas conduit such that at any position, the admix gas conduit comprises at least the calculated flow cross section; stacking two duct segments to provide the gas mixer. The present disclosure also pertains to a duct segment for being used in the gas mixer.
