A Hybrid Electric Vehicle comprising a heat transfer medium, transfers heat generated by an electric motor to a fuel, increasing fuel evaporation and cooling the motor. This configuration allows the use of multiple fuels and fuel blends including hydrogen, liquefied natural gas, natural gas liquids and heavier hydrocarbons in varying proportions while allowing higher efficiency and lower emissions due to the hybrid configuration, and efficient cooling.

An Internet of Things (IoT) gateway integrated into a real-time monitoring system for skid-mounted natural gas compression systems. The IoT gateway enables remote monitoring, troubleshooting, and diagnosing of natural gas compression systems by providing access to cellular and satellite communication networks for communicating operational data to one or more remote servers. The IoT gateway can be configured to select a communication network based on an order of priority and other various criteria. The order of priority and the selection criteria may be updated over the air. The IoT gateway can be further configured to receive and relay software and other updates to one or more components of the natural gas compression system. The IoT gateway is configured to meet various regulatory compliance standards and is explosion proof.

In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure, a turbocharger includes a compressor having a compressor wheel, a turbine provided within a housing, and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) flow path. The EGR flow path includes a first fluid connection in the housing and located in proximity to the turbine, a second fluid connection located in proximity to a trailing edge of the compressor wheel, an EGR control valve disposed between the first fluid connection and the second fluid connection, the EGR control valve configured to selectively operate the turbocharger in a low-heat mode having an EGR up to 50% and an operational mode having an EGR rate typically less than 35%.

A system, apparatus, and method for controlling an engine system can provide fuel reactivity compensation control for an engine of the engine system. Pilot fuel quantity supplied to the engine can be controlled using a nitrous oxide (NOx) error. Likewise, air-to-fuel ratio (AFR) for the engine can be controlled using the NOx error. Each of a pilot fuel offset and an AFR control trim can be generated using the NOx error. The pilot fuel offset and the AFR control trim can be used to control the pilot fuel quantity and the AFR, respectively.

A working machine includes: a machine body; a prime mover that is mounted on the machine body; a fuel cylinder that contains a fuel; a vaporizer that vaporizes the fuel sent from the fuel cylinder and supplies the fuel to the prime mover; a temperature detector that detects a temperature correlating with a decrease in the temperature of the vaporizer; and a controller that imposes restraint on the flow rate of the fuel flowing from the vaporizer to the prime mover when the temperature detected by the temperature detector is lower than or equal to a first temperature.

The present invention relates to a gas tank arrangement (100) for an internal combustion engine (102), said gas tank arrangement (100) comprising a gas tank (104) for containing a combustible gas, and an additional gas tank (106) arranged in upstream fluid communication with said internal combustion engine (102), wherein the gas tank arrangement (100) further comprises a valve arrangement (108) positioned in fluid communication with the internal combustion engine (102), wherein the valve arrangement (108) is further arranged in upstream fluid communication with the gas tank (104) and the additional gas tank (106) for controllably direct combustible gas from the internal combustion engine (102) to either the gas tank (104) or the additional gas tank (106).

This disclosure describes an assembly for gas (e.g., compressed natural gas) storage. The assembly includes multiple gas storage tanks, with each tank coupled to a separate sub-assembly that includes a pressure gauge, shutoff valve, and pressure relief device (PRD), providing for independent pressure monitoring, shutoff, and pressure relief for each of the tanks.

A storage container includes an inner tank to store a cryogenic liquid gas and an extraction system to permit extraction of the cryogenic liquid gas by a cryogenic liquid gas consumer. The extraction system includes an extraction line, a consumer line to facilitate extraction of the cryogenic liquid gas by the cryogenic liquid gas consumer, a return line to facilitate return of the cryogenic liquid gas to the inner tank, a heat transmitter to heat the cryogenic liquid gas extracted from the inner tank and transfer the cryogenic liquid gas to a gaseous phase, and a compressor to compress the gaseous cryogenic liquid gas. A first flow of the compressed cryogenic liquid gas is conducted to the cryogenic liquid gas consumer via the consumer line and a second flow of the compressed cryogenic liquid gas is returned to the inner tank via the return line.
