Abstract: A hyperbaric fuel system (10a, 10b) produces hydrogenated liquid fuel (30) for combustion reactions of compression or spark ignition engines and improves fossil fuel efficiency without requiring major changes to existing fuel systems. The hydrogenated liquid fuel (30) decreases the NOx, CO and unburned hydrocarbon particulate matter, and reduces the consumption of liquid fuel (26). The systems produces hydrogen gas (18) and dissolves the hydrogen gas (18) in the liquid fuel (26) using several chambers, including a hyperbaric mixing chamber (58), between the liquid fuel supply and a fuel pump (28) supplying the hydrogenated liquid fuel (30) to fuel injectors (40). Unused hydrogen gas (18) and hydrogenated liquid fuel (30) is recirculated to minimize loss of efficiency. The system preferably includes a water reservoir and electrolysis device to generate the hydrogen gas.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for improving the fuel efficiency of a 10 kW Tactical Quiet Generator (10 kWTQG) diesel generator in the field. The apparatus includes a small turbocharger adapted to operate at very low boost and a low back pressure exhaust system. The turbocharger provides between approximately 0.5 and 3 pounds of boost over the 10 kWTQG normal operating range. No modifications are required to the 10 kWTQG fuel injection and governor system. The design of the low back pressure exhaust takes advantage of the narrow RPM range of the 10 kWTQG, and when combined with the turbocharger, meets or exceeds ambient noise level requirements. The apparatus is field installable by personnel of general skill levels present for operation of the 10 kWTQG.

Abstract: A hydrogen augmented crankcase ventilation system includes hydrogen injection to facilitate the combustion of crankcase fumes, for example blow-by, in the engine. The system preferably includes a hydrogen generation system as a hydrogen source and introduces the hydrogen into the engine through the engine's fuel injection system. A fumes hose connects the crankcase to the air intake, and a clean air hose connects a clean air source to the crankcase. An orifice or a vacuum regulator cooperates with the fumes hose and may be included to regulate crankcase vacuum. A filter resides inline with the fumes hose to capture solids or liquids which enter the fumes hose from the crankcase, and a drain hose drains captured liquid back into the engine. A back flow preventor may be included to cooperate with the clean air hose to prevent a back flow of crankcase fumes through the clean air hose.
