摘要:
An internal combustion engine includes air amplifiers to increase airflow. Air amplification with a high-pressure supply provides a practical way to provide large airflow producing higher rear wheel power. When synchronized to the valve openings the efficiency is enhanced while adding to the system complexity. These additions also apply to an engine with a supercharger of turbocharger. When used in the exhaust path the air amplifiers can also help scavenge exhaust gases from the cylinder for added power.

The invention relates to a combustion unit for combusting a liquid fuel. The combustion unit has a fuel inlet, an air inlet and a flue gas outlet which are connected to a combustion chamber for combusting the fuel, wherein the fuel inlet is connected to at least one explosion atomizing unit which is disposed and adapted such that atomized fuel fragments due to gas formation in the atomized fuel. The explosion atomizing unit is preferably an explosion swirl atomizing unit to a system for generating power having at least one gas turbine, at least one compression device driven by the gas turbine and at least one such combustion unit.

A hydrogen-ozone fueled power plant system that can be used for a variety of purposes including vehicles such as automobiles and trucks. The system includes a master generator for producing hydrogen and oxygen from water, another generator for producing ozone using the oxygen produced from the master generator and apparatus for supplying the hydrogen and ozone to the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The steam produced during the combustion cycle is uniquely condensed into water that is returned to the fuel storage tank component of the system that supplies water to the master generator.

A fuel injector for a combustor presented either as a simplex or duplex pressurized fuel injector, wherein the fuel is introduced into the injector to provide a swirl to the fuel in a first annular channel which communicates with a coaxial conical fuel swirl chamber and then the primary nozzle. In a duplex version, a secondary annular swirl channel is provided for spinning the fuel and communicating downstream with a conical fuel swirl chamber and eventually an annular nozzle whereby the fuel is atomized as it exits the nozzle. An air swirler is also provided with the fuel injector, and the air swirler includes air passages arranged in an annular array about the fuel injector tip. A second array of auxiliary air passages can be arranged spaced radially from the first array and also to provide an air swirl and to control the spray cone of the fuel air mixture.

A gas turbine engine having an exhaust casing that includes a plurality of fairings that shield struts that are affixed to and extend between concentric rings. Each fairing has a moveable tail section that is adjusted during turbine operation to change the angle of attack of the exhaust gases to minimize vortex shedding and the corresponding vibrations that result.

A four stroke engine including a crankshaft. A power piston within a first cylinder connected to the crankshaft such that the power piston reciprocates through a power stroke and an exhaust stroke. A compression piston within a second cylinder is connected to the crankshaft such that the compression piston reciprocates through an intake stroke and a compression stroke. A gas passage interconnects the first and second cylinders and includes an inlet valve and an outlet valve defining a pressure chamber therebetween. An inlet manifold is in fluid communication with an inlet valve of the second cylinder. A bypass valve is in fluid communication with the second cylinder and the inlet manifold, wherein during a compression stroke the bypass valve allows a portion of the air to bypass the inlet valve and exhaust into the inlet manifold to provide a variable compression ratio.

A fuel nozzle system for use in a combustor utilized in a combustion turbine for reducing nitrogen oxides and other pollutants including an annular fuel distribution manifold separately mounted away from a diffusion nozzle, said annular manifold having a plurality of fuel emitting passages or holes disposed along the downstream side of the manifold, said manifold being mounted in a position away from the diffuser nozzle body to allow air to stream around the manifold on all sides allowing for a thorough mixture of fuel and air around the annular manifold for better premixing in the combustion chamber. In an alternate embodiment, the diffusion nozzle is replaced by a pilot flame nozzle that is supplied with both air and fuel through a premix air and fuel chamber to a pilot flame nozzle which is used to sustain combustion in the secondary chamber. The use of a pilot flame nozzle that has a fuel and air mixture is believed to reduced NOx emissions.
