Abstract

In a gas enginethat uses a gas having a lower specific gravity than air and has a pre-mixing device before a turbocharger, a pre-mixed gas mixture compressed by a turbochargeris cooled by an intercoolerlocated downstream of the turbochargerin the intake system. Condensed water produced as the gas is cooled and the pre-mixed gas mixture discharged with the condensed water are separated into condensed water, air, and fuel gas in a vapor-liquid separator. The fuel gas is returned to the intake system upstream of the turbocharger, while the condensed water is discharged to atmosphere.
