MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621023350 A) filed by Ve Commercial Vehicles Ltd., Dhar, Madhya Pradesh, on Feb. 27, for 'a predictive backfire prevention system for a hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine.'

Inventor(s) include Abhishek Tripathi; Rahul Dubey; Hardik Lakhlani; Hemant Rathi; Akhilesh Shukla; and Sachin Agarwal.

The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A predictive backfire prevention system (100) for a hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engine is disclosed. The predictive backfire prevention system (100) comprises a plurality of sensors (102) to generate real-time combustion-related data, a processing unit (104) to compute a set of normalized feature values derived from the real-time combustion-related data, the set of normalized feature values including, compute a raw backfire risk score using a weighted combination of the set of normalized feature values, map the raw backfire risk score to a predictive backfire risk index, compare the predictive backfire risk index to one or more predefined thresholds, a control interface (106) configured to command at least one corrective engine control action. Further, the predictive backfire risk index is computed prior to occurrence of a backfire event and the corrective engine control action is applied proactively to suppress intake backfire."
