A method of fueling an engine (92) of a vehicle having a fuel storage tank (70) is accomplished by providing a liquid fuel for fueling the engine (92). The fuel is cooled to reduced temperatures substantially less than ambient temperature so that the volume of the fuel is reduced. The fuel is stored in the storage tank (70) while the fuel is at the reduced temperatures, with the reduced volume of the fuel thereby allowing more fuel to be held in the storage tank (70) and/or increasing the energy value of the fuel per unit volume. The fuel may be transferred from the storage tank (70) to the engine (92) while the fuel is at the reduced temperatures. The fuel may be cooled using either liquid nitrogen (76), or conventional mechanical refrigeration equipment (150).
Procédé de remplissage en carburant d'un moteur (92) de véhicule possédant un réservoir de stockage de carburant (70), au moyen d'un carburant liquide. On refroidit le carburant à des températures basses sensiblement inférieures à la température ambiante, de manière à limiter le volume du carburant. On conserve le carburant dans le réservoir de stockage (70), tandis que ledit carburant est à basse température, le volume limité du carburant permettant, soit de conserver davantage de carburant dans le réservoir de stockage (70), soit d'augmenter la valeur énergétique dudit carburant par unité volumique. On peut transférer le carburant du réservoir de stockage (70) au moteur (92), tandis que ledit carburant est à basse température. On peut le refroidir au moyen d'azote liquide (76) ou d'un équipement mécanique classique de réfrigération (150).
