Abstract: An engine unit controller (EUC) in connection with a hybrid opposed piston engine can receive real-time movement data of a crankshaft via a crank position sensor. It can simultaneously receive current data of an electric motor that partially controls the crankshaft. With the known engine constants, the EUC can determine instantaneous combustion pressure data based on the movement data and the current data. Such combustion pressure data can be used to optimize the engine's performance in real-time.

Abstract: A method and system for a hybrid opposed piston engine with dynamic controlling of the combustion volume and power output is provided. The method includes using a control system to control a phasing of opposed pistons for achieving a desired combustion volume during a combustion cycle. The control system can control an activation of an ignition of the hybrid opposed piston engine, such as to activate the ignition when a desired condition is present in the combustion chamber. Various embodiments of the hybrid opposed piston engine are further provided.

Abstract: A novel two-stroke opposed piston engine with sleeve valves and T-scavenging breathing is provided. The two-stroke opposed piston engine has a unique uni-flow scavenging breathing that can deliver higher power density than the traditional uniflow-scavenging two-stroke opposed piston engine. Furthermore, a method of operating a two-stroke opposed piston engine is provided. The novel opposed piston engine can be a hybrid engine with one or more electric machines.
