Method and Device for the Open-Loop or Closed-Loop Control of the Amount of a Fuel Mixture
20180320639 · 2018-11-08 ·

A method and a device for open- or closed-loop control of an amount of water mixed with a fuel is provided. A fuel supply is split into a first branch having a Venturi pipe with a vacuum connection and a second branch having a blocking valve. Water is supplied to the Venturi pipe vacuum connection, and the fuel-water mixture in the first branch and the fuel in the second branch is supplied to the fuel pump. Open-loop or closed-loop control is provided by either reducing fuel flow in the second branch with the stop valve such that the fuel flow in the first branch increases, increasing the amount of water mixed in the fuel at the Venturi pipe, or increasing fuel flow in the second branch such that first branch fuel flow decreases, decreasing the amount of water mixed in the fuel at the Venturi pipe.

20240301824 · 2024-09-12 ·

The invention relates generally to waste exhaust energy recovery and, in particular, a system or a retrofit kit for generating cavitation including a cantilevered bearing arrangement. The system may include a turbine wheel configured to drive an input shaft in response to exhaust energy. The input shaft may further support a cavitation impeller for generating pressure, fluid flow, and cavitation within a fluid. Upon collapsing, the cavitation bubbles may release energy that is captured by an output turbine mounted on an output shaft. Output shaft may harness the captured energy, which may be transmitted to an output device to, for example, turn a crankshaft to add torque or operate a generator to charge an external power source, such as a battery. Additionally, the system facilitates reducing emissions and fuel consumption while also supporting enhanced performance.

Delivery mechanisms and distribution mechanisms are varied, adjusted, or modified based on a desired fuel application. Dimensions, flow rates, pressures, viscosities, temperatures, friction parameters, and combinations thereof may be varied, adjusted or modified. The fuel application may include a scrubber application. The scrubber application uses a delivery mechanism to deliver a wet or dry scrubbing agent at a low pressure to a distribution mechanism. The distribution mechanism distributes the scrubbing agent within the scrubbing chamber. The delivery mechanism is adjustable based on properties of a feedstock utilized to deliver the scrubbing agent, properties of a propellant, or properties of the scrubbing application. The distribution mechanism is adjustable based on desired distribution characteristics including shape, size, or velocity of drops, mists, or particles distributed. Location, processes, and by-products associated with output of the scrubbing application may be based on a stage of the scrubbing application.
