  • Patent number: 9631548
    Abstract: The application describes a system for an engine comprising a direct injection nozzle for injecting gaseous fuel into a cylinder of an engine in a second operating mode; an intake injection nozzle for injecting liquid fuel into an intake port of the engine in a first operating mode; and a valve gear suitable to adjust timing of opening and closing of an inlet valve. Preferential injection of a gaseous fuel such as compressed natural gas directly into the cylinder increases efficiency and allows for reduced heat exposure to the lesser used liquid gas injectors mounted in the intake port, reducing coking of these injectors.

  • Patent number: 9525594
    Abstract: A method for transmitting software from a central computer to at least two further computers, includes connecting the central computer and the at least two further computers with a communication link for data transmission. The central computer sets up a connection to the at least two further computers and requests properties of the at least two further computers. The central computer transmits to the at least two further computers, which have been identified as having multicast capability, those parts of the software which are suitable for multicast transmission. The central computer sets up a unicast connection to the at least two further computers for those parts of the software not suitable for multicast transmission.

  • Patent number: 9523326
    Abstract: Methods are provided for improving delivery of supercritical fuels via a direct injector. An injector control parameter is adjusted based on one of a fuel pump gain, an injected fuel mass, or a change in pressure in the fuel rail, and the engine operates the injector based on the adjusted parameter. Injector control parameters are only adjusted when fluid is subcritical at the fuel pump and when injector overlap is not present.
