A controller is arranged to receive an indication of at least one parameter associated with the engine, and control delivery of at least one of the first liquid coolant from the first liquid coolant reservoir and the second liquid coolant from the second liquid coolant reservoir to the compression cylinder based on the indication of the at least one parameter such that the at least one liquid coolant vaporises into a gaseous phase during a compression stroke.

A motor vehicle including a water provision unit for providing water to at least one water consumer. Here, a water collection tank, a primary water tank and at least one secondary water tank are provided. The water collection tank is or can be fluidically connected to a water source and the primary water tank, bypassing the water collection tank and the secondary water tank, is fluidically connected to the at least one water consumer. The water collection tank is fluidically connected both directly and indirectly via the at least one secondary water tank to the primary water tank, and the water provision unit includes a water conveying unit which is provided and designed for conveying the water out of the water collection tank in direction of the primary water tank by a gaseous conveying medium.

The invention relates to an arrangement (100) having a liquid tank (10), at least one line (11, 11a, 11b) connected to the liquid tank (10), through which liquid (F) can be transported from the liquid tank (10), and a pump (13) connected to the at least one line (11, 11a, 11b) for conveying the liquid (F) from the liquid tank (10) through the at least one line (11, 11a, 11b) in the direction of flow (R) during an operating phase, wherein a pressure accumulator (14) connected to the at least one line (11, 11a, 11b) is provided, by means of which a pressure can be generated in the at least one line (11, 11a, 11b) outside of the operating phase, and a ventilating element (15, 15a, 15b), which can be transitioned into an open position and into a closed position, is arranged along the at least one line (11, 11a, 11b), wherein, outside of the operating phase, a pressure impulse within the at least one line (11, 11a, 11b) can be generated by the pressure generated by the pressure accumulator (14) and a subsequent transition of the ventilating element (15, 15a, 15b) into the open position in order to drain the line (11, 11a, 11b) of the fluid (F).

A solenoid based air ventilation valve (24) comprises of a housing (1), a solenoid coil (2), a flexible diaphragm (6), a plunger (8), a filter inlet (28) and a filter outlet assembly (100). The flexible diaphragm (6) is over molded with the plunger (8) to seal the flexible diaphragm (6) against the high pressure during closed position and has an incorporated O-ring (102) with flexible diaphragm (6) to stop the leakage from the valve (24). The filter outer assembly (100) is fixed to the inlet (25) and outlet port (26) to prevent suspended contamination particles in the valve (24). The valve (24) has a press fitted metal insert/flow controller (55) to achieve a low flow rate. Further, the air ventilation valve (24) allows a low leakage limit, low flow rate to serve high opening and working pressure to work in both over pressure and under pressure (vacuum) conditions.

The disclosure relates to a method for controlling compression ignition combustion phasing in an internal combustion engine, the method comprising providing a high heat of vaporization fuel charge, the high heat of vaporization fuel charge having a latent heat of vaporization; and directly injecting a spray of the fuel charge into a cylinder of an internal combustion engine during the intake stroke, the internal combustion engine having a gas exchange stage and a combustion stage, the injecting from a single injector and occurring at least immediately after Top Dead Center during the gas exchange stage.

A method for determining an air mass in an air separator of a water direct injection system for injecting a water/fuel mixture into a combustion chamber of an engine of a motor vehicle. The air separator is disposed between a water pump for delivering water of the water/fuel mixture and a high-pressure pump for feeding the water/fuel mixture to a high-pressure injector for injecting the water/fuel mixture into the combustion chamber. The method includes increasing a pressure of the water from a first pressure value to a second pressure value by the water pump, determining a water volume delivered by the water pump during the increasing of the pressure of the water by the water pump, and determining the air mass in the air separator on a basis of the determined water volume delivered by the water pump.
