The present disclosure provides a six-cylinder opposed free piston internal combustion engine generator. The generator comprises two free piston internal combustion engine sets, one opposed piston internal combustion engine set and two linear generator sets. Air entering cylinders is subjected to first-stage compression in low-pressure cylinder sets in the free piston internal combustion engine sets and the opposed piston internal combustion engine set and then subjected to second-stage compression in high-pressure cylinder sets, and a high pressure gas produced after the combustion is subjected to first-stage expansion in the high-pressure cylinder sets and then subjected to second-stage expansion in the low-pressure cylinder sets.

The invention provides an internal combustion engine system (1) comprising—at least one combustor (3), and—a first expander (4) arranged to receive exhaust gases from at least one of the at least one combustor (3), and to expand and extract energy from the exhaust gases —characterized in that the system comprises a second expander (5) arranged to receive exhaust gases from the first expander (4), and to expand and extract energy from the exhaust gases.

A split-cycle internal combustion engine includes a variable displacement compressor having two or more cylinders, an adjustment mechanism for varying the displacement volume of the compressor and possibly the phase between the compressor and the motor, and a rotary motor having two or more expansion chambers. A passage valve system located between the compressor and the motor transfers working fluid and combustion exhaust products, and, in addition, mechanically and thermally isolates the compressor from the high pressures and temperatures present in the motor.
