A system for feeding water to at least one combustion chamber in an internal combustion engine having: a tank designed to contain a quantity of water; a feeding duct; a pump designed to draw water from the tank and to pump pressurised water into the feeding duct; and at least one silver-containing body which is contained in the tank in contact with the water.

A split cycle internal combustion engine comprises a combustion cylinder and a compression cylinder arranged to receive air and compress the air to provide a compressed working fluid to the combustion cylinder for combustion. The compression cylinder is coupled to a water reservoir. The engine further comprises a controller arranged to receive an indication of at least one parameter associated with the engine and/or a fluid associated therewith, and control delivery of the mass of water delivered to the compression cylinder based on the indication of the at least one parameter such that the total mass of water in the compressed working fluid at the end of the compression stroke results in a level of water concentration in the compressed working fluid that is less than a threshold water concentration level.

A device for adding a fluid to combustion air of an internal combustion engine for a motor vehicle includes a first fluid container from which the fluid can be removed and supplied to the combustion air. A second fluid container is provided, which is connected to the first fluid container via a line so as to carry fluid. A fluid pump is arranged in the line. As a result of the configuration, the fluid in the first fluid container can quickly be warmed and decontaminated.

A water injection device for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle includes at least one water injector for injecting water into an internal combustion engine. The water injection device further includes a water tank and a first supply line. The first supply line is configured to connect the water tank to the water injector. At least one biocide for controlling harmful organisms in the water injection device is provided in the water injection device.

The invention relates to a vehicle system for injecting an aqueous solution, said vehicle system comprising: a tank (500) for storing an aqueous solution; an injection system (300) configured for injecting aqueous solution from the tank (500) in an injection zone (Z) in the vehicle; and a UV light decontamination device (700) configured for decontaminating the aqueous solution stored in the tank (500) by emitting UV light.

A device to supply an internal combustion engine with water comprising one single tank of an exhaust system provided with exhaust gas after-treatment; the tank is divided, on the inside, into a first powder urea storage area and a second water collecting area, and wherein the powder urea and the water are mixed inside the tank so as to obtain a water solution of urea with a variable concentration, the device comprises at least one second electromagnetic injector, which is designed to inject water into the internal combustion engine, and a second pumping device, which is drowned inside the tank and draws from the second water collecting area in order to supply water under pressure to said at least one second electromagnetic injector.

A filter element (3), in particular an air filter element, for a filter arrangement (1), having a frame (6) that has at least one contact surface (11) for contacting a clamping surface (30) of at least one clamping element (27, 28) of the filter arrangement (1), wherein the at least one contact surface (11) includes straight segments (12, 13, 14) and oblique segments (15, 16) arranged between the straight segments (12, 13, 14), and wherein the straight segments (12, 13, 14) are arranged such that the clamping surface (30) when the latter is displaced relative to the at least on contact surface (11) essentially exclusively contacts the oblique segments (15, 16).

A metering device for metering water or an aqueous solution, such as an injector for metering a reducing agent liquid into an exhaust gas stream of a combustion system or an injector for metering water or aqueous solution into a combustion chamber or into an intake manifold of an internal combustion engine. The metering device has an inlet and an outlet for the water or aqueous solution and a shut-off device which is arranged between the inlet and the outlet. At least one electrically operated heating element is arranged in the region of the shut-off device so as to heat and avoid freezing of the liquid.

The invention relates to a system for storing and feeding an auxiliary liquid to an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle or to parts of the internal combustion engine of the motor vehicle, having a storage vessel for the fluid, having at least one delivery pump for the fluid, and having at least one line system comprising an inflow to a consumer and a return flow into the storage vessel, the system comprising a connector module which is inserted into an opening of the storage vessel, the connector module having fluid ducts which communicate with the storage vessel and are connected to an inflow line and to a return flow line of the line system, and the connector module comprising a module block which is configured as a thermally conductive and/or heatable body.

A fuel heater and vaporizing system comprising an engine; a source of fuel coupled to the engine through a fuel supply line; multiple stages of thermal sources thermally coupled to the fuel supply line between the source of fuel and the engine, wherein the multiple stages of thermal sources are configured to heat the fuel; at least one catalyst system configured to supply a source of ions and H.sub.2 coupled to the fuel supply, and a sustainable water injection sub-system coupled to the engine, the sustainable water injection sub-system configured to inject water vapor into the engine.
