IPC: F02G1/055
Filed: 2001-03-01
Abstract: A method of combusting fuel and air in a burner of an external combustion engine having a heater head. The fuel and air are combined to form a fuel-air mixture which is characterized by a fuel-air ratio. An exhaust gas product is produced when the fuel-air mixture is combusted in the burner of the external combustion engine. A flame is formed by igniting the fuel-air mixture at a first fuel-air ratio produced by a first air flow rate and a fuel flow rate. The air flow rate is then increased to produce a second fuel-air ratio. The fuel flow rate is also controlled based upon a temperature of the heater head of the external combustion engine. The flame is maintained at the second fuel-air ratio by adjusting the air flow rate based on the fuel flow rate. The external combustion engine may be, for example, a Stirling cycle engine.

Title: 内燃機関たとえば車両内燃機関のための燃料供給システム作動方法
IPC: F02D45/00
Filed: 2001-04-14
Abstract: (57)【要約】
本発明は、内燃機関たとえば車両内燃機関のための燃料供給システム（１）に関する。この燃料供給システム（１）によれば、燃料をポンプ（６，１０）により蓄圧器（２）へポンピングすることができる。また、蓄圧器（２）内の圧力を測定することができ、さらに蓄圧器（２）内の圧力を予想圧力（ｐｒｂｋ）が蓄圧器（２）内に生じるよう制御可能である。さらにこの場合、制御装置（１６）により圧力制御弁（４）を所定の値に合わせて制御可能である。また、制御装置（１６）により蓄圧器（２）内の予想圧力を求めることができる。そしてこの制御装置（１６）により、予想圧力と測定圧力とから圧力制御弁（４）の機能正常性を判定することができる。
