Title: Fuel injection control device
Inventor: OMURO YOSHIYA
IPC: F02D41/04
Filed: 2008-11-18
Abstract: To provide a fuel injection control device which can execute the correction of a fuel injection amount continuously in response to a change of throttle opening.  A fuel injection control device includes a basic-injection-use map for deriving a basic injection amount corresponding to the throttle opening and an additional-injection-use map for deriving an additional injection amount corresponding to the throttle opening. In one engine cycle, a basic injection amount calculation stage for calculating the basic injection amount (C: first calculation stage, FICAL) and an additional injection amount calculation stage (D: a second calculation stage, TIASTG) which is provided after the basic injection amount calculation stage are set. Assume a value obtained by applying the throttle opening measured in the FICAL to the additional-injection-use map as an injection amount a and a value obtained by applying the throttle opening measured in the TIASTG to the additional-injection-use map as an injection amount P. When the relationship .alpha. < .beta. is established, an additional injection is performed based on .beta.-.alpha.. When the relationship .alpha. > .beta. is established, the basic injection amount is corrected.

Patent CA-2647825-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZUBRIN ROBERT M
IPC: B01J7/00
Filed: 2007-03-22
Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and systems for recovering oil or natural gas from a petroleum reservoir. In one example, the method may include reforming a fuel source by reaction with water to generate driver gas, and injecting the driver gas into the oil well. The reforming operation may include combusting a combustible material with ambient oxygen to release energy, and heating a reforming reaction fuel and water sources, with the energy released from the combustion of the combustible material, to a temperature above that required for the reforming reaction, thereby the fuel and water sources are reformed into driver gas. The driver gas may include hydrogen and/or carbon dioxide gas that may be used to extract oil from the ground and especially oil from depleted oil wells. It may also be used to drive natural gas trapped underground or in coal beds to the surface. The reforming reaction fuel and/or the combustible material may be obtained from coal and/or a derivative of coal.

Title: Wind capture & accelerator for the augmentation of same; one purpose of which is increased electrical generation from a wind turbine
Inventor: ROTER SAM
IPC: F03D1/04
Filed: 2008-12-19
Abstract: This is a devise for capturing and accelerating wind over a wide range of potential vector angles of incidence. The main (but not exclusive) purpose of this invention is the capture, focus and acceleration of a large volume of wind and to direct that hyper wind onto a commercially obtainable wind turbine for the purpose of generating electrical power. The primary (but by no means only) intent is to make available effective on site electrical generation for the general populace. The overall and interactive elements of this invention through the use of a wide orifice of collection and strategically placed planes and diverters will facilitate the capture of a preponderance of yearly local ambient wind impinging upon the invention over a wide range of environmental contexts. Additionally the act of constricting wind through the facility of strategically configured panels effectively focuses &  accelerates the available wind by the agency of the Venture effect and in accordance with the Bernoulli formulae. This hyperactive wind force is then channeled towards a wind turbine. A finale rear acting reverse funnel will add a further boost to the kinetically hyperactive wind. Virtually all wind turbines are rendered considerably more productive through the increase of wind speed as the mathematical relationship dictates that a small increase in speed will have a power increase of three in electrical energy production. The flexibility of this invention facilitates the use of any of the wide variety of wind turbine configurations available currently and in the future.  Some examples of suitable configurations which may favorably integrated with this invention are exemplified (but by no means limited) to the following: a propeller type of horizontal axis drive turbine;  a horizontal airfoil turbine with a vertical axel; or a horizontally notating paddle wheel type turbine spinning around a horizontal axis;  or a vertical axis cone shaped turbine physically connected to the roof for support or floating magnetically. The throat shape at the terminal end of the 2nd segment referred to as the 'Accelerator Chamber'; the 'Enclosure Chamber' and the opening orifice of the rear booster funnel or 'Enhancer Chamber' of this invention may be configured with various dimensions and shapes, within limits, as deemed most suitable for the type of turbine to be purchased and conjoined with the roof top accelerator.     SPECIFICATIONS  1) General character: This is an invention for the purpose of capturing breezes impinging upon the invention from a wide range of directions and then through the implementation of the Venturi effect speeding up the breeze so as to increase the amount of electrical current, which a commercially purchased wind turbine will be able to produce.

Title: Exhaust catalyst control for a six-cycle engine
Inventor: OOYAMA KAZUO
IPC: F02D21/08
Filed: 2007-07-16
Abstract: A six-cycle engine functions in such a way that it is cooled from the inside by scavenging and has high compression ratio to achieve high fuel economy; however, the engine has problems of lowering in exhaust catalyst temperature and excessive oxygen. To solve the problem of the temperature lowering, the opening of a scavenging port valve relative to an intake valve is controlled to regulate the amount of scavenging air relative to the amount of intake air, which controls exhaust gas temperature. To solve the problem of the excessive oxygen, the engine uses an EGR system for replacing the entire portion of scavenging air with exhaust circulation gas and also uses a self-EGR system for opening an exhaust valve in a scavenging air introduction stroke.
