ABSTRACT:
Novel carbide supercells for dry acetylene generation are disclosed herein, along with methods of use and internal combustion engines incorporating the carbide supercells. A carbide supercell according to one embodiment includes an outer shell defining an interior gas chamber and a rotating basket positioned in the gas chamber. The basket defines a plurality of holes and is configured to contain at least one calcium carbide rock. An injector is adjacent the basket for spraying a liquid into the basket, and a controller is in data communication with the injector for actuating the injector. A chamber outlet is adjacent an upper end of the gas chamber.
