The fuel oil control device is electrically connected with the electronic control pumps, and controls the starting time and the operation duration of the electronic control pump, and the electronic control pumps are installed on a pipeline between an engine fuel oil rail and a cylinder cover fuel injector.
In-line generation of pilot fuel for power systems
A system includes a fuel tank and a dehydration reactor that are configured to provide a primary fuel and a pilot fuel to a power system. The fuel tank is configured to store the primary fuel and is fluidly connected to a reactor feed line and a primary fuel line provide the primary fuel. The dehydration reactor is configured to receive the primary fuel via the reactor feed line and convert a portion of the primary fuel to the pilot fuel and a byproduct. The power system is configured to receive the pilot fuel from the dehydration reactor to initiate combustion of the primary fuel. The power system also includes a cylinder with an internal piston that receives the pilot fuel and the primary fuel, contains the combustion reaction, and generates power from the combustion reaction; and contains the combustion reaction. A pilot fuel injector provides the pilot fuel to the cylinder at a first time to initiate combustion and a primary fuel injector provides the pilot fuel to the cylinder at to generate power via the power system.
Control system for internal combustion engine and inert gas concentration detecting device for compressed natural gas
In a control system that includes a pressure accumulating portion that supplies CNG to a fuel injection valve and a regulator that adjusts a pressure in the pressure accumulating portion to a set pressure and of which a valve element opens when CNG is supplied to the pressure accumulating portion and closes when supply of CNG to the pressure accumulating portion is shut off, a control parameter relating to a combustion state in an internal combustion engine is controlled on the basis of a length of a period during which an opening degree of the valve element reduces from a first predetermined opening degree to a second predetermined opening degree when the pressure in the pressure accumulating portion is adjusted to the set pressure by the regulator.
Injection device, an internal combustion engine, and a method for operating an injection device for gasoline and CNG
An injection device for an internal combustion engine having a first injection system for injecting fuel having a first fuel composition, and a second injection system for the injection of fuel having a second fuel composition that has a lower ethanol component than the first fuel composition, the first injection system having at least one first fuel injector for injecting fuel having the first fuel composition both in the direction of a first intake orifice of a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, and in the direction of a second intake orifice of the combustion chamber, in which the second injection system has a second fuel injector for injecting fuel having the second fuel composition essentially only in the direction of the first intake orifice, and a separate third fuel injector for injecting fuel having the second fuel composition essentially only in the direction of the second intake orifice.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MULTI-FUEL ENGINE
Methods and systems are provided for a multi-fuel engine. In one example, a method includes adjusting a substitution ratio based on an intake manifold temperature. The method further including adjusting the intake manifold temperature to increase the substitution ratio.
Fuel Reforming Device and Completion of Gas-burner vehicles (CNG)
The invented system adds some petrol fuel to the vehicle engine which runs with natural gas (CNG or LPG). It causes a simultaneous combustion of petrol and natural gas (CNG or LPG). This action decreases depreciation of engine, increases power of the engine and reduces fuel consumption in natural gas vehicles. The above-mentioned system consists of an innovative petrol holder storage, an electronically circuit, a relay, a lever micro switch and a petrol fuel injector. Whenever the accelerator pedal is pressed more than a certain amount, the system will be activated and command to inject petrol collected in the storage into the air manifold.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MULTI-FUEL ENGINE
Methods and systems are provided for adjusting a location of a fuel injection in response to a substitution rate and a desired EGR flow. In one example, a method may include injecting a first fuel to a combustion chamber via a direct injector positioned to inject directly into the combustion chamber, injecting a second, different, fuel to the combustion chamber via an exhaust port injector positioned to inject toward an exhaust valve of the combustion chamber, and combusting the first and second fuels together in the combustion chamber.
System and method of injecting natural gas in liquid form into a diesel engine
The present invention discloses a method of introducing fuel into a diesel engine for combustion within the engine. A natural gas in liquid form is injected into the engine for combustion therein with diesel fuel so as to maintain a natural gas concentration derived from the liquid in the range of greater than 0.6% to 3.0% of air intake by volume of natural gas. Suitable gases include natural gas, methane or substantially methane gas mixtures and substitute natural gas such as propane air mixtures providing a mixture with similar combustion properties to methane/natural gas.
Fuel gas supply method and supply unit for gas engine
In a gas engine provided with a gas supply pipe (35) branching into a supercharger-side gas supply pipe (33) and a cylinder-side gas supply pipe (37), a supercharger-side gas adjusting valve (43) and a cylinder-side gas adjusting valve (45) for controlling flow rates of passages, when the gas concentration of the fuel gas changes, the cylinder-side gas adjusting valve is controlled first to keep the output of the gas engine constant and then the supercharger-side gas adjusting valve is controlled to achieve the fuel gas flow rate Q1 based on the constant flow ratio by means of a gas supply controller (63), while maintaining the flow rate ratio Q1/Q2 at a constant value where Q1 is a fuel gas flow rate in the supercharger-side gas supply pipe and Q2 is a fuel gas flow rate in the cylinder-side gas supply pipe.
DUAL FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM FOR OPTIMIZING FUEL USAGE AND MINIMIZING SLIP FOR DIESEL AND GASOLINE ENGINES
The invention involves a system and method for providing a liquid fuel or a liquid and gaseous fuel to a diesel or Otto cycle engine for operation of the engine. The system includes a primary electronic control module (ECM), which monitors engine sensors and contains a first three-dimensional fuel map for the liquid fuel. A second ECM is connected for bi-directional transfer of information to the first ECM, the second ECM contains a second three-dimensional fuel map for delivery of the gaseous fuel through a secondary gaseous fuel injection assembly. The bi-directional communication between the two ECMs while monitoring the engine sensors allows both ECMs to “learn” an efficient fuel map for delivery of both fuels in the same cycle for improved efficiency, reduction in slip and lower emissions.
