Crankcase Ventilation System
US Patent:
6892715, May 17, 2005
Filed:
Jul 3, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/613685
Inventors:
Daniel A. Norrick - New Brighton MN, US
Assignee:
Cummins, Inc. - Columbus IN
International Classification:
F02B033/44
US Classification:
123572, 123563
Abstract:
An improved crankcase ventilation system for a vehicle which includes an air compressor to route crankcase gases to the intake manifold for combustion. The primary vehicle components include and aircleaner, a turbocharger compressor positioned downstream from the aircleaner, an optional aftercooler positioned downstream from the turbocharger compressor, and an engine having an intake manifold and a crankcase equipped with a breather port for venting crankcase gases. Crankcase gases are vented through the breather port to the air compressor. Clean air from downstream of the aircleaner but upstream of the turbocharger compressor is drawn into the air compressor as needed to prevent the air compressor from drawing too much crankcase gas and reducing the internal pressure of the crankcase to undesirable levels. The pressurized crankcase gases are introduced into the intake air stream downstream of the aftercooler and upstream of the intake manifold so as to prevent fouling of the turbocharger compressor and aftercooler by contaminants in the crankcase gases. The crankcase gases are then combusted in the engine and not vented directly to the environment.

Fuel Cell With Low Water Consumption
US Patent:
8628887, Jan 14, 2014

Assignee:
Cummins Power Generation IP, Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
H01M 8/06, C01B 3/22, C01B 3/26
US Classification:
429420, 423651, 429433, 429434
Abstract:
A technique to provide fuel to a solid oxide fuel cell with low water consumption is described that includes providing an initial fuel mixture with air and hydrocarbon, and partially oxidizing the fuel mixture with a catalyst to provide a reformed fuel mixture. Also included is adding an amount of water to the reformed fuel mixture to reduce formation of elemental carbon from carbon monoxide in the reformed fuel mixture and supplying a portion of the reformed fuel mixture combined with water to an electrochemical device that produces electrical power from hydrogen in the reformed fuel mixture.
