TL;DR: In this paper, a premixed charge compression ignition engine, and a control system, is provided which effectively initiates combustion by compression ignition and maintains stable combustion while achieving extremely low nitrous oxide emissions, good overall efficiency and acceptable combustion noise and cylinder pressures.

TL;DR: In this paper, a back-up electric power generator driven by a four-cycle internal combustion engine is described, which includes a plurality of reciprocating cylinders each rotatably coupled to a crankshaft.

TL;DR: In this paper, an improved HCCI engine and control scheme is provided which produces stable combustion while optimally minimizing emissions and maximizing efficiency, and the control system senses the start of combustion, the combustion rate and/or the combustion duration and actively controls the temperature, pressure, equivalence ratio and autoignition properties to continuously maintain optimum combustion.

TL;DR: In this paper, an operating condition detection unit for detecting engine operating a condition which indicates combustion history, determining a combustion history value based on an engine operating condition signal, and feeding at least one control signal based on the value.

TL;DR: In this paper, an electric power generation system with a back-up electronic power generator driven by a four-cycle internal combustion engine is described, which includes a plurality of reciprocating cylinders (C1-C6) each rotatable coupled to a crankshaft.
