The split cycle engine of the present disclosure comprises a compression cylinder (10) accommodating a compression piston (12), a combustion cylinder (20) accommodating a combustion piston (22), a recuperator (35) arranged to exchange heat between exhaust fluid (95) from the combustion cylinder and working fluid being supplied from the compression cylinder to the combustion cylinder via a crossover passage (30). A controller is configured to control operation of the engine based on an indication of a temperature of at least one of a material of the recuperator and the working fluid in the crossover passage.

Methods and systems are provided for controlling airflow of an accumulator of a motorized vehicle. In one example, a method includes storing pressurized gases within the accumulator by flowing intake air from a compressor of an engine of the vehicle to a pressure booster arranged upstream of the accumulator. Pressurized gases stored within the accumulator may be used to drive one or more pneumatic devices.

A method for warming an aftertreatment system of an engine system while an engine of the engine system is not running comprising starting at least one of an electric compressor and an electric heater using stored electrical energy and passing air through the engine system to at least a portion of the aftertreatment system when the engine of the engine system is not running.

A method of controlling fuel delivery to an engine includes providing a fluid atomizer, a mechanically driven air compressor, a start up air source, and an air valve coupled between the mechanically driven air compressor and the start up air source, charging the start up air source, delivering compressed air from the start up air source to the fluid atomizer, providing an initial air/fluid mixture with the fluid atomizer, and operating the air valve to direct compressed air from the mechanically driven air compressor to the fluid atomizer.

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to internal combustion engines, combustion systems that include such internal combustion engines, and controls for controlling operation of the combustion engine. The internal combustion engine may include one or more mechanisms for injecting fuel, air, fuel-air mixture, or combinations thereof directly into one or more cylinders, and controls may operate or direct operation of such mechanisms.

A high-pressure gas compression-ignition engine includes a cylinder block, a piston and a cylinder head, the piston is mounted on the cylinder block and sealed by the cylinder head to form a combustion chamber for fuel work, and the cylinder head is respectively provided with an intake valve and an exhaust valve. It also comprises a fuel supply system, the fuel in the tank is pressurized by the pump body through a fuel channel and then supplied to the combustion chamber of the cylinder block; a fuel injection device for injecting fuel into the intake valve; a compression-ignition system, which is connected to the exhaust duct or the external air source, and recovers or sucks part of the tail gas energy discharged from the power stroke of the combustion chamber into the external air source, and stores it in the compression-ignition gas storage tank after compression.

An intake system of an engine of a vehicle includes a turbocharger having an elbow configured to be connected to a compressor of the turbocharger. The elbow for the turbocharger includes: an inlet through which a first fluid is introduced; an outlet through which the first fluid is discharged; a passageway part extending between the inlet and the outlet; and a fusion part provided between the inlet and the outlet and configured to communicate with an inside of the passageway part.
