SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MONITORING AND OPTIMIZING FLARE PURGE GAS WITH A WIRELESS ROTAMETER
20170361363 · 2017-12-21 · ·

A method for optimizing purge gas of a flare system includes measuring a flow of flare fluids within a flare system to obtain a measured flow value. The flow of the flare fluids is compared to a target flow to obtain a difference between the flow of the flare fluids and the target flow. A control valve is operated to amend a flow of purge gas and the steps of measuring a flow of flare fluids and comparing the flow of the flare fluids to the target flow are repeated until the flow of the purge gas is within a target range. A value of the flow of purge gas is measured and transmitted wirelessly to a control system.

METHOD FOR DESCALING A COMBUSTION ENGINE BY HYDROGEN INJECTION AND DESCALING STATION FOR IMPLEMENTING SAME
20230177895 · 2023-06-08 · ·

A descaling method involves a tool for diagnosing the engine of a motor vehicle, which tool can interact with the control electronics system of the engine, not only for reading information and controlling certain members during a hydrogen injection cleaning procedure, but also for checking, in real time after cleaning, the state of the impacted members and updating the engine management parameters accordingly in the control electronics system. Thus, the electronic management of the engine may take account of the resetting (i.e. to the initial values or values close to the initial values) of the operating parameters of the engine which are sensitive to engine scaling, such as EGR valve mobility, valve lift, DPF clogging, injector needle mobility, etc.
