Alternative heat source for an engine

An alternative heat source for an engine with an elongated compartment with first and second ends, a directed energy device capable of sending a pulse of photonic energy to a focal point within the first end of the compartment, an intake allowing for the entry of a gas into the elongated compartment, an exhaust allowing for the exit of the gas from the elongated compartment, and a piston capable of moving within the elongated compartment between the first and second ends. The pulse of photonic energy at the focal point heats the gas and causes a corresponding expansion of the gas in the elongated compartment, driving the piston toward the second end of the elongated compartment, where the piston movement can be translated into motive force. The same principle can work with a rotary chamber, or a dual chambered linear system.

An ignition device, and turbomachine including the ignition device

Disclosed herein is an ignition device for an internal combustion engine, such as specifically an expander. The ignition device includes an optical tube with a distal end, a proximal end, and an axial cavity extending from the proximal end to the distal end, the axial cavity forming an optical path for a laser radiation. The ignition device further includes; a first optical element located at the distal end of the optical tube. The first optical element forms a pressure barrier adapted to prevent penetration of gas from a combustion chamber into the axial cavity.

Laser ignition device, laser guide assembly and internal combustion engine

ActiveCN224187681UGood dispersionScatteredMachines/enginesEngine ignitionCombustion chamberLight spot
The utility model relates to a laser ignition device, a laser guiding assembly and an internal combustion engine. The laser guiding assembly comprises a sleeve, a light guiding part and a field lens. The light guide piece is arranged in the sleeve in a penetrating mode. The field lens is installed on the sleeve and located in front of the light guide piece, and a plurality of annular light-emitting parts which are sequentially arranged in a nested mode from inside to outside are arranged on the light-emitting face of the field lens. During use, the light guide part transmits laser emitted by the laser device to the field lens, the laser is shaped by the field lens and is emitted outwards through the plurality of light emitting parts of the light emitting surface, and the laser emitted outwards is a plurality of annular light spots which are sequentially nested from inside to outside. Furthermore, when the multiple annular light spots hit the ignition positions of the combustion chamber, the overall area is large, and the number of the ignition positions is large. Therefore, the situation that materials in the cylinder are damaged due to the fact that the light spot energy density is too concentrated due to the small light spot area can be prevented, the ignition success rate can be increased due to the large ignition area, fuel can be fully combusted, and therefore the fuel utilization rate is increased, and emission of harmful substances is reduced.

Krypton-85-free spark gap with photo-emission

ActiveEP3501071B1Spark gap detailsSpark gaps with auxillary triggering
An approach is disclosed for generating seed electrons at a spark gap (100) in the absence of 85Kr. The present approach utilizes the photo-electric effect, using a light source (120) with a specific nominal wave length (or range of wavelengths) at a specific level of emitted flux to generate seed electrons. A spark gap (100) device is provided that includes a first electrode (104) having a first surface and a second electrode (102) having a second surface offset from and facing the first surface. The spark gap further includes a light source (120) configured to emit light toward at least the first surface such that photons emitted by the light source when the spark gap is operated are incident on the first surface and cause electron emission from the first surface.

Ammonia-fueled engine based on oxygen enhancement and ammonia-rich combustion control method thereof

An ammonia-fueled engine based on oxygen enhancement and reactive activity control, and an ammonia-rich combustion control method thereof are provided. The ammonia-fueled engine based on oxygen enhancement includes a jet ignition device and an ammonia gas injector. An oxygen injector is provided on the jet ignition device. During the operation of the ammonia-fueled engine, the ammonia gas injector firstly injects ammonia fuel into a combustion chamber, and ammonia gas in the combustion chamber enters a prechamber inner cavity through a jet hole during a compression stroke, and the oxygen injector firstly injects oxygen gas into a prechamber to reduce an ammonia concentration in a gas mixture in the prechamber, dilute the gas mixture in the prechamber, improve the reaction activity of the gas mixture, and ensure the speed and intensity of an initial flame; and then a jet flame is formed to ignite over-concentrated ammonia-air mixture in the combustion chamber.
