A system includes a combustion apparatus for controlling combustion of a fuel and air in a combustion chamber to produce mechanical motion, a source of a chemical species for supplying a chemical species to be mixed with the fuel and air, a control valve for controlling an amount of the chemical species that is introduced from the source into the fuel and the air, and a controller in communication with the control valve to cause the control valve to introduce the chemical species at a flow rate that will cause auto-ignition of combustion between the fuel and the air in the combustion chamber without use of a spark-producing device. The controller may perform operations embodied as program instructions for controlling the system.

System and process for controlled chemical ignition of internal combustion engines

An air bypass system for an internal combustion engine is provided. The internal combustion engine includes an air intake system defining a first air intake chamber and a second air intake chamber coupled in flow communication with the first air intake chamber. The air bypass system includes at least one bypass assembly controlling flow communication between the first air intake chamber and the second air intake chamber, said at least one bypass assembly facilitating air flow from the second air intake chamber into the first air intake chamber during an expansion stroke of the internal combustion engine.

Air-fuel ratio regulation for internal combustion engines

Systems, devices, and methods of manufacture are provided for a cylindrical compressor with a standardized shell and core. The compressor including a cylindrical cast metal shell having a shell bore extending longitudinally therethrough and configured to receive a cylindrical cast metal core. The core having a core bore extending longitudinally therethrough defining a core bore diameter within a predefined range of diameters and corresponding to a shell bore diameter. The core having an outer diameter configured to provide an interference fit between the core and the shell when the core is disposed within the shell. The compressor including a plurality of valve assemblies extending through the shell and the core so as to interface a valve of the valve assembly with the core bore and further including cylinder head coupled to the shell, a piston rod assembly configured within the core bore, and a packing case coupled to the core.

A system, comprising, a combustion chamber, and a free-radical injector configured to inject free radicals into the combustion chamber at an ignition timing to trigger combustion of a fuel-air mixture.

Positive displacement radical injection system

A clutch engagement mechanism is provided, including a rotational shaft coupled to a clutch plate to engage and disengage the clutch plate in a clutch assembly, an arm extending from the rotational shaft to apply a rotating force to the rotational shaft, and a rotational pulley coupled to a distal end of the arm so as to rotate about a point at the distal end of the arm, and to receive a clutch control cable that provides a rotating force to the rotational pulley and the rotational shaft.

Clutch engagement mechanism

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed toward a system including a trochoidal rotary device. The trochoidal rotary device includes a housing comprising an inner surface, a rotor having at least one bearing recess, a shaft eccentrically mounted to the rotor, wherein the shaft and the rotor are integrated with one another, and at least one bearing disposed between the bearing recess of the rotor and the inner surface of the hollow housing, wherein at least one of the inner surface of the hollow housing, the bearing recess of the rotor, and the at least one bearing comprise a bearing interface comprises a surface treatment.

Trochoidal rotary device

An artificial heart with a centrifugal pump is disclosed. In one embodiment, the artificial heart includes an impeller disposed in a housing. The impeller is configured to rotate to circulate blood through the housing. The impeller may include a set of blades on a first side of the impeller and a set of vanes on a second side opposite the first. The blades on the first side and the vanes on the second side allow blood circulation from both the first and the second sides of the impeller. The artificial heart may also or instead include a diffuser with adjustable vanes that enable variation in the output characteristics of the artificial heart pump. Various other artificial hearts, pumps, systems, and methods, including control systems and methods, are also disclosed.
