Abstract

A system and method for fast control of the timing of combustion in an internal combustion engine, comprising actuating a fast-acting fuel-additive supply valve to meter a variable amount of fuel additive into a fuel stream, thereby forming an additive-enhanced fuel with an additive concentration that can be dynamically adjusted as fast as each engine cycle; injecting the additive-enhanced fuel directly or indirectly into a combustion chamber or into an intake port; and combusting the additive-enhanced fuel.

Apparatus for controlling the recirculated exhaust gas quantities and the injection quantity in auto-igniting internal combustion engines

Patent Straubel, M

An apparatus is proposed which serves the purpose of controlling the exhaust gas recirculation quantity and the injection quantity in auto-igniting internal combustion engines. In this apparatus, an arbitrarily actuatable throttle valve is provided in the intake manifold, downstream of which a control pressure is withdrawn from the intake manifold and used to actuate a pneumatic adjustment device which determines the position of the quantity adjustment device of a fuel injection pump. This control pressure simultaneously serves to actuate an exhaust gas recirculation valve and acts counter to the force of a restoring spring in the work chamber of amore »« less
