摘要： A system for combusting volatile vapors includes a carburetor having intake valves for receiving base fuel from a fuel source, ambient combustion air, and volatile vapors from a vapor source. A plurality of sensors measure and generate sensor data based on a respective plurality of physical properties associated with the carburetor and associate combustion engine operation. One or more programmable controllers receive the sensor data and control the intake valves to regulate respective ratios of the fuel, air, volatile vapors drawn through the carburetor based on the received sensor data. To increase the burn of volatile vapors, an engine loading system automatically operated by the controller(s) applies an automatically adjustable braking load on the engine. The load level applied is based on the sensor data and commensurate with maintaining stable engine running conditions. The loading system decreases time necessary to remediate a site.

摘要： A hybrid powertrain includes an internal combustion engine, an electro-mechanical transmission and an electric machine. In an engine starting routine, flow control devices located proximate each combustion chamber in the engine initially restrict airflow into the cylinders to allow for a starter motor to rotate the engine at lower expansion and compression torque whereafter rotation of the engine is transitioned to the electric machine.

摘要： An oxygen sensor is mounted in an exhaust path of an internal combustion engine. The status of an exhaust gas is detected in accordance with the output of the oxygen sensor. The oxygen sensor incorporates a heater for heating an element of the sensor. In a region in which the temperature of the sensor element is below 300° C., an adsorbable species becomes adsorbed. In a region in which the exhaust pipe temperature is above 80° C., the adsorbable species becomes adsorbed remarkably. Power supply control is continuously exercised over the heater so as to maintain the sensor element at a temperature of 300° C. or higher until the exhaust pipe temperature drops below 80° C. after an internal combustion engine stop. The power supply to the heater is shut off after the exhaust pipe temperature drops below 80° C.

摘要： In order to restrict an over-temperature-rising of a diesel particulate filter (DPF), an electronic control unit (ECU) computes a flow rate of the exhaust gas flowing through the DPF so that temperature of the DPF is kept at a temperature in which the DPF can be regenerated. By adjusting a position of a throttle valve, a fresh air flow rate is adjusted so that the flow rate of the exhaust gas flowing through the DPF is equal to a target flow rate of the exhaust gas.
