SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SENSOR CONTROL OF THE FUEL-AIR RATIO IN A BURNER

(71) NEW POWER CONCEPTS LLC 340 Commercial Street, Manchester, NH 03101; (US). [US/US].

A method for controlling the fuel-air ratio of a burner having a blower responsive to a blower drive signal for injecting air into the burner. The method is based at least on the concentration of a gas in an exhaust gas product of a combustion chamber of the burner and includes measuring the gas concentration in the exhaust gas product, deriving a gas concentration signal from the measured gas concentration, determining the fuel-air ratio from the gas concentration signal and the sign of the derivative of the gas concentration signal with respect to the blower drive signal, and controlling the fuel-air ratio by adjusting the air flow rate into the burner. The burner may be, for example, in a Stirling cycle engine.

Another good find Dave. Hope that completes the patent applications and that they are ready to start manufacturing the stirlings.

Don't you think that some major testing would have to be done on the stirlings(if they havn't done them already) before they start selling these things.

It would be great if they could get those water cleaning stirlings on the market. Unfortunately even something like this could not top the 'terrorism' and 'war' international/national news talk about all day and night.
