Method for controlling hydrogen combustion in a hydrogen internal combusting engine
A method for controlling hydrogen combustion in a hydrogen internal combustion engine system includes a combustion chamber linked to an intake port via an intake valve, the hydrogen internal combustion engine system comprising a piston slidably moving between a top dead center position and a bottom dead center position, characterized by the steps of: injecting water in liquid phase in the intake port when the piston is between 0 and 40 crank angle degrees before opening of the intake valve, injecting hydrogen after opening of the intake valve and when the piston is between 0 and 60 crank angle degrees after the top dead center position, stopping hydrogen injection when the piston is between 0 and 100 crank angle degrees before the bottom dead center position.

Engine
An engine including an exhaust bypass valve and an intake bypass valve. The exhaust bypass valve is disposed in an exhaust bypass channel connecting an outlet of an exhaust manifold and an exhaust outlet of a turbocharger to each other. The intake bypass valve is disposed in an intake bypass channel connecting an inlet of an intake manifold and an inlet of the turbocharger. An intake pressure sensor detects a pressure of the intake manifold. If an instruction value indicating an upper limit or a lower limit of the valve opening degree of the intake bypass valve is continuously output for a predetermined time or more, an engine control device determines that an abnormality occurs in at least one of the exhaust bypass valve and the intake bypass valve.
Internal combustion engine
An internal combustion engine with at least one combustion chamber, at least one fuel delivery line for the delivery of fuel to at least one combustion chamber, and at least one differential pressure control valve for controlling the pressure in the at least one fuel delivery line. The at least one differential pressure control valve is configured to perform a valve opening or valve closing movement based on a pressure difference between the at least one fuel delivery line and a reference volume having a reference pressure. The internal combustion engine further includes at least one pressure relief valve, separate from the at least one differential pressure control valve, and configured to open to cause a pressure relief in the reference volume and a decrease in the reference pressure if a drop occurs in the power to be performed by the internal combustion engine.
HYDROGEN DISCHARGE CONTROL SYSTEM AND HYDROGEN DISCHARGE CONTROL METHOD FOR HYDROGEN ENGINE VEHICLE
A hydrogen discharge control system controls a hydrogen discharge flow rate in a hydrogen engine vehicle that discharges hydrogen from a hydrogen tank in which a resin liner is laminated on an inner wall, to a hydrogen engine, in accordance with an accelerator operation amount. The hydrogen discharge control system comprises a control device. The control device estimates a temperature attained in the hydrogen tank after a predetermined time elapses with the accelerator operation amount at a maximum during an on operation of an accelerator, based on a temporal temperature gradient in the hydrogen tank and a temperature in the hydrogen tank, and when the temperature attained is no higher than a first predetermined temperature, performs discharge limit control for limiting a maximum value of the hydrogen discharge flow rate from the hydrogen tank to a predetermined flow rate.
