  • Publication number: 20230175453
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine with at least one combustion chamber, at least one fuel delivery line for the delivery of fuel to at least one combustion chamber, and at least one differential pressure control valve for controlling the pressure in the at least one fuel delivery line. The at least one differential pressure control valve is configured to perform a valve opening or valve closing movement based on a pressure difference between the at least one fuel delivery line and a reference volume having a reference pressure. The internal combustion engine further includes at least one pressure relief valve, separate from the at least one differential pressure control valve, and configured to open to cause a pressure relief in the reference volume and a decrease in the reference pressure if a drop occurs in the power to be performed by the internal combustion engine.

  • Patent number: 9683495
    Abstract: A method of operating an internal combustion engine coupled to a generator in the event of a grid fault of a power supply grid connected to the generator, in particular in the event of a dynamic grid voltage drop, wherein the internal combustion engine includes a turbocharger having a compressor in an air feed duct of the internal combustion engine and an exhaust gas turbine coupled to the compressor in an exhaust gas duct of the internal combustion engine, wherein there is provided at least one bypass valve for bypass of the compressor and/or for bypass of the exhaust gas turbine, wherein upon or after detection of the grid fault the at least one bypass valve is at least temporarily actuated.
