Patent CA-2692130-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ASADA YUKIHIRO
IPC: F02D41/08
Filed: 2010-02-04
Abstract: To prevent an increase in an engine speed of an engine having an IACV when the IACV is fully opened for initialization of the IACV immediately after start up of the engine. When cranking starts by turning on a starter switch 14, the ignition timing is first corrected to a fixed value on a retard side. When an IACV 6 reaches a fully opened position, the ignition timing is corrected to the retard side once, and thereafter corrected to an advance side. The correction to the advance side is performed in accordance with a difference between the number of idling target steps and the current number of steps, and the amount of advance correction is reduced as the difference is reduced. Upon completion of the initialization of the IACV 6, the ignition timing correction amount is then restored to the initial value by increasing the amount of advance by a predetermined amount in a stepwise manner.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for using hydrogen. The method is characterised in that water from a sea water or other source is first preheated using solar energy and next subjected to a heating step in order to obtain steam which is transformed into water plasma at a low temperature, followed by the decomposition of the plasma by hydrolysis using electrodes and the subsequent separation of the hydrogen and oxygen obtained. The hydrogen is then transported to the location at which water is to be generated, the hydrogen undergoes oxidation and the energy therefrom is recovered, with water being regenerated for direct use.
