  • Publication number: 20260055722
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine with at least one combustion chamber, an intake system and optionally at least one prechamber for the at least one combustion chamber. The intake system includes a liquid fuel supply configured to provide a liquid fuel, at least one air-fuel-mixing-zone configured to mix air with liquid fuel from the liquid fuel supply and to provide an air-fuel-mixture, a combustion chamber intake manifold leading into the at least one combustion chamber, and optionally a prechamber intake manifold leading into the at least one prechamber. The internal combustion engine further includes at least one preheater configured to preheat the liquid fuel prior to its evaporation.

  • Publication number: 20260055750
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine includes at least three piston-cylinder-units for combusting an air-fuel mixture, wherein each piston-cylinder-unit comprises an intake port and an exhaust port. The engine further includes an intake system fluidically connected to each intake port of the at least three piston-cylinder-units for providing air or air-fuel mixture. The engine further includes an exhaust system for discharging exhaust gases of the combustion. The exhaust ports of at least two piston-cylinder-units are fluidically connected to the intake system to recirculate an exhaust gas into the combustion of the at least three piston-cylinder-units and the exhaust system is configured to entirely discharge exhaust gas from one or more remaining piston cylinder-units of the at least three piston-cylinder-units.

  • Publication number: 20190271262
    Abstract: Disclosed is a prechamber device for a combustion engine. The prechamber device comprises a prechamber body circumferentially enclosing a prechamber cavity, a nozzle body extending from the prechamber body and disposed at a first axial end of the prechamber device, wherein an interior of the nozzle body is in fluid communication with and provides an appendix of the prechamber cavity. The prechamber body and the nozzle body are provided as a wall comprising an inner surface and an outer surface and comprise a first material. A core member of a second material is enclosed inside the wall between the inner surface and the outer surface and axially extending inside the nozzle body, enclosed by the first material.

  • Publication number: 20180128156
    Abstract: An arrangement of a genset and a container, in which the genset is arranged, whereby the arrangement also comprises a cooling device and the genset can be cooled in the operating state of the genset by the cooling device, whereby the cooling device is arranged between a first position in which the cooling device is arranged entirely within the container, and a second position in which at least part of the cooling device can be moved at least partially outside the container, whereby the genset can be moved into its operating state when the cooling device is in the second position.
