A cooling system includes an internal combustion engine, a coolant pump in fluid communication with the internal combustion engine, and a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger configured to receive coolant from the internal combustion engine via the coolant pump. The cooling system also includes a bypass valve connected downstream of the coolant pump, the bypass valve configured to close a fluid path that connects the coolant pump and the liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger.

An air-induction system of an engine includes a hose assembly. The hose assembly includes an elastomeric hose having a circular cross section when in a natural state, and a deformable sleeve received around the hose and configured to create an indentation in the hose for part clearance. The sleeve has an end section having a circular cross section and an intermediate section in which the sleeve projects radially inward into a sidewall of the hose such that the hose is deformed from the natural state to a deformed state in which the sidewall is deformed radially inward creating the indention and a non-circular cross section of the hose at the intermediate section.

Disclosed is an articulated harvesting combine of a forward power processing unit (PPU) and a rear grain cart, wherein the PPU carries dual axially mounted engines with oppositely opposed crankshafts with one toward the rear grain cart and the other engine away from the rear grain cart, there being no comingling of flywheel output power flow between the two engines.

An emission-free power generation system includes a combustion chamber having a first inlet for receiving a fuel and a closed-loop fluidic circuit fluidly connected between a second inlet of the combustion chamber and an outlet of the combustion chamber. Combustion gases from the combustion chamber include only water and carbon dioxide, and the fuel includes performic acid or a combination of formic acid and hydrogen peroxide.

A charge-air cooler includes an airflow path, a heat exchanger in fluid communication with the airflow path, a water reservoir, and a water-wicking plate. The water-wicking plate has a lower portion disposed in the water reservoir and an upper portion disposed in the airflow path, wherein the water-wicking plate includes a water-absorbent material configured to draw water from the water reservoir and to release the water to the airflow path.

An intake system of an engine mounted on a vehicle where a cabin is air-conditioned by an air conditioner, is provided. A heat exchanger of an evaporator of the air conditioner is divided into a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger that are mutually independent, and an air passage includes a first division passage and a second division passage. The intake system cools intake air utilizing a part of the air conditioner, and includes a connecting passage that guides first air cooled by passing through the first heat exchanger, a passage switch, and a controller. When the controller determines that a cooling demand for the intake air exists, it controls the first air to flow into an intake passage through the connecting passage, and when the controller determines that there is no cooling demand, it controls the first air to flow into the first division passage.
