A renewable energy generation system includes a drive motor, a flywheel in mechanical communication with the drive motor, a generator in mechanical communication with the flywheel, a charge controller in electrical communication with the generator, a plurality of charge controller switches in electrical communication with the charge controller, a plurality of batteries in electrical communication with a respective charge controller switch, and a power management module in electrical communication with the plurality of charge controller switches. The drive motor effectuates rotation of the flywheel to generate stored rotational energy which is transferred to the generator as a load is placed upon the generator to maintain a constant speed of the drive motor. The power management module selectively opens or closes a charge controller switch to permit or inhibit the flow of electrical energy to a respective battery to reduce the electrical load placed upon the generator and drive motor.

A gas fuel vehicle includes gas fuel engine, a gas fuel supply circuit comprising at least one tank assembly, the tank assembly including a gas fuel tank and a tank valve, an electronic central unit configured to control operation of the gas fuel vehicle, The tank assembly is provided with specific identification data, and the electronic central unit is configured to process the identification data of the tank assembly and to enable an actuation of the tank valve between closed and open states only if the identification data are recognized.

A supplemental fuel system includes a supplemental fuel tank, a first pressure regulator, a second pressure regulator, and a nozzle. The supplemental fuel tank is configured to store a supplemental fuel at a first pressure. The first pressure regulator is configured to reduce the first pressure of the supplemental fuel received from the supplemental fuel tank to a second pressure. The second pressure regulator is configured to reduce the second pressure of the supplemental fuel received from the first pressure regulator to a third pressure. The nozzle is configured to be positioned (i) downstream of the second pressure regulator and (ii) within a conduit of an air supply system for the compression-ignition engine. The nozzle is configured to receive a flow of the supplemental fuel and provide the supplemental fuel to air flowing though the conduit.

A supplemental fuel system for a machine having a compression-ignition engine includes an air intake tube. The air intake tube has a first end configured to interface with an air cleaner of an air supply system that provides air to the compression-ignition engine, a second end configured to interface with a compressor of a turbocharger of the air supply system, and a sidewall extending between the first end and the second end. The sidewall includes a fuel interface configured to facilitate providing a supplemental fuel into the air intake tube to mix with the air upstream of the compressor of the turbocharger.

To provide an engine capable of more quickly decreasing an auxiliary chamber gas pressure and ensuring a favorable load responsiveness. A gas engine is an engine including, as combustion chambers of each cylinder, an auxiliary chamber that ignites fuel gas to generate flame and a main chamber that combusts the mixture of fuel gas and air using the flame generated in the auxiliary chamber, and includes an auxiliary chamber main pipe that supplies the fuel gas to the auxiliary chamber, an air supply passage in which the air to be supplied to the main chamber flows, and a connection pipe communicating from the auxiliary chamber main pipe to the air supply passage.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a combustion-powered fastener-driving tool including multiple combustion chambers and/or usable with fuel canisters of varying lengths.

Methods and systems for accurate and precise fuel supply control for continuous-flow of gaseous fuel to an internal combustion engine over a large dynamic power range, including a dual-stage valve that allows optimal control—a first stage in the form of a voice-coil driven electronic pressure regulator, and a second stage in the form of a voice-coil-driven choked-flow valve; monitoring the pressure of the fuel intermediate the two stages and making appropriate adjustments to the first stage via a pressure actuator loop; feeding the gaseous fuel mixture through a unitary block assembly into the second stage; monitoring the pressure of the air/fuel mixture and making appropriate adjustments to the second stage via a valve actuator control loop.

The invention relates to a system for supplying a gaseous fuel that comprises a low temperature tank for receiving the fuel in its liquid aggregate state achieved by cooling and comprises a rail that is fluidically connected to at least one injector device for discharging gaseous fuel into a combustion space.
