A gas metering valve for an internal combustion engine. The gas metering valve includes a housing in which a gas chamber is formed, which includes an inlet opening and an outlet opening. A movable valve element is situated in the gas chamber, which is movable by an electrical actuator against the force of a return spring and which cooperates with a valve seat for opening and closing the inlet opening. A blocking valve is situated between the valve element and the outlet opening, which opens in the flow direction to the outlet opening and blocks in the opposite flow direction.

A solenoid valve having an explosion-proof structure, a fuel feeding system, and a method of manufacturing the solenoid valve having an explosion-proof structure are provided. The solenoid valve having an explosion-proof structure includes: a body including a channel through which a fluid flows; a housing connected to the body and having one surface opened; a solenoid assembly arranged inside the housing and electrically connected to a controller; an armature, at least a portion of which is arranged in the channel and which opens or closes the channel by moving relative to the solenoid assembly by a magnetic field generated by the solenoid assembly; and a cover plate arranged on the one surface of the housing to face the armature.

A gas fuel supply system for supplying the gas fuel via an opening of an intake supply pipe that is connected to a combustion chamber in an engine operable in each of a gas fuel combustion mode and an oil fuel combustion mode includes: the gas fuel supply valve for regulating an amount of the gas fuel, the gas fuel supply valve having plural gas supply holes, from which the gas fuel is fed in a direction toward the opening when the valve is opened; and an opening regulation valve provided between the gas fuel supply valve and the opening and having an opening hole, an opening area of which can be regulated. The gas fuel supply system is configured that extended axes of all the gas supply holes pass through the fully opened opening hole.

A flame arrestor screw for a solenoid operated gas admission valve. The flame arrestor screw may include a screw body having a first end and an open end. The flame arrestor screw may include a gas passage extending from the open end along a longitudinal axis of the screw body and terminating at a terminal end within the screw body. A through hole may extend through the screw body transverse to the gas passage and in fluid communication with the gas passage.

Various methods are provided for managing a fuel system of a vehicle. In one example, the method may include enclosing, at least partially, a gaseous fuel delivery, storage, and/or consumption element of the vehicle. The method may include sensing an indication of gaseous fuel in an unintended region and generating an alert and/or adjusting an actuator in response to the sensed gaseous fuel above a threshold.

A system is provided. The system includes a fuel receiving module configured for being installed within a marine vehicle, the fuel receiving module including at least a fuel receptacle. A tank module for storing gaseous fuel is provided. The tank module is in communication with the fuel receiving module. A pressure reduction module is configured for reducing a pressure of the gaseous fuel from the tank module to a pressure suitable for an engine of the marine vehicle. An engine module is in communication with an engine control module for controlling operation of the engine. A helm control module is in communication with the engine module and at least one other module for controlling operation of the system.

A transport refrigeration system (200) comprising: a vehicle (102) having a refrigerated cargo space (119); a refrigeration unit (22) in operative association with the refrigerated cargo space, the refrigeration unit providing conditioned air to the refrigerated cargo space; a first engine (26) configured to power the refrigeration unit; a plurality of first fuel tanks (330) fluidly connected to the first engine, the plurality of first fuel tanks configured to supply fuel to the first engine, wherein each of the plurality of first fuel tanks includes a lock off valve (450) and a pressure sensor (470) configured to detect a pressure level within each of the first fuel tanks; and one or more engine controllers (54) in electronic communication with each pressure sensor and lock off valve, the one or more engine controllers being configured to adjust at least one of the lock off valves in response to a pressure level detected by at least one of the pressure sensors.

A mass-flow throttle for highly accurate control of gaseous supplies of fuel and/or air to the combustion chambers for a large engine in response to instantaneous demand signals from the engine's engine control module (ECM), especially for large spark-ignited internal combustion engines. With a unitary block assembly and a throttle blade driven by a non-articulated rotary actuator shaft, in combination with control circuitry including multiple pressure sensors as well as sensors for temperature and throttle position, the same basic throttle concepts are suited to be used for both mass-flow gas (MFG) and mass-flow air (MFA) throttles in industrial applications, to achieve highly accurate mass-flow control despite pressure fluctuations while operating in non-choked flow. The throttle, in combination with the sensors and ECM, enable detection of backfire events, with the throttle system further being enabled to take operative measures to prevent damage to the throttle components resulting from a backfire event.

The system heats glycol water using steam generated by a boiler and heating LNG using the glycol water, thereby increasing efficiently the LNG to temperature required for an engine. In addition, the system senses LNG flowing to a glycol tank using a pressure sensor, etc. when the LNG flows to the glycol tank due to pressure difference between a fuel supplying line and a glycol circulation line generated according as a heat exchanger is broken down, and outputs the flowed LNG to the outside. As a result, the glycol circulation line may be returned to original state and stability of the system may be enhanced.
