<p>A split-cycle air-hybrid engine includes a rotatable crankshaft. A compression piston is slidably received within a compression cylinder. An expansion piston is slidably received within an expansion cylinder. A crossover passage interconnects the compression and expansion cylinders. The crossover passage includes a crossover compression (XovrC) valve and a crossover expansion (XovrE) valve. An air reservoir is operatively connected to the crossover passage. An air reservoir valve selectively controls air flow into and out of the air reservoir. In an Engine Firing (EF) mode, the air reservoir valve is kept closed. In an Air Expander (AE) and an Air Expander and Firing (AEF) mode, the air reservoir valve is kept open for a duration that is at least as long as a duration of the XovrE valve opening event. In an Air Compressor (AC) mode and a Firing and Charging (FC) mode, the air reservoir valve is selectively opened and closed.</p> |
