AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Oxidation of catalysts in the combustion chamber of internal combustion engines negatively affects catalyst reaction performance.
Method used
An injector mounting device with a catalyst holding space outside the combustion chamber, using a heat-conducting mounting body to absorb heat for steam reforming, protecting the catalyst from oxidation and enhancing hydrogen production.
Benefits of technology
Protects the catalyst from oxidation, improves thermal efficiency by reusing heat, and enables hydrogen production in existing engines without additional cooling requirements.

Abstract
The internal combustion engine injector mounting device (1700) is configured to i) secure an injector (36) to an internal combustion engine body (14) so that the injector can inject heated aqueous fluid and fuel into a combustion chamber (12) of the internal combustion engine, and ii) hold a catalyst (1714) so that the heated aqueous fluid and fuel pass through the catalyst as they are injected into the combustion chamber. The catalyst is contained within the mounting body to protect it from oxidation due to the combustion process that occurs in the combustion chamber during use.
