DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to internal combustion engines, and more specifically, to a device for magnetizing the fuel mixture of an internal combustion engine, the operation whereof involves the combustion of liquid organic fuels (gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, petroleum).
BACKGROUND ART
The operation of heat engines and installations is characterized by a relatively low efficiency on the one hand, and environmental contamination, on the other.
The low efficiency of heat engines and installations is conductive to waste of scarce and costly fuels (petroleum and its derivatives), radiation of a considerable amount of heat into the atmosphere and also overheating of working elements of heat engines and installations. Incomplete fuel combustion due to low efficiency is accompanied by exhaust of bottom products of the combustion process, including toxic solid and gaseous components, into the environment. Higher power rating of internal combustion engines and continuous growth of the number thereof calls for new engineering solutions, which would allow the efficiency to be improved, fuel economized and the environmental contamination level cut down.
In recent years a great number of writings in this country and abroad have been devoted to study of the action of the magnetic field on the physical and chemical properties of various substances and the kinetics of interaction thereof, and also to the development of equipment to exert said action of the magnetic field. In particular, mention has been made of a positive effect produced by magnetizing water and aqueous solutions, resulting in a thinner layer of solid deposits on the walls of pipes and thermal pipelines using water as the heat transfer agent, higher strength of concretes mixed with water subjected to magnetic treatment, etc. The magnetic field has also been reported to influence life processes in plant and animal cells, and in living organisms as a whole.
Finally, numerous patents contain proposals on the improvement of operation of thermal plants and heat engines, wherein the magnetic field acts on a fuel, fuel mixture or oxidizer. Some of such patents describe a positive effect being attained through acting on a fuel, fuel mixture or oxidizer by the magnetic field alone, with the magnetic field required for magnetizing being produced either by permanent magnets or by a d.c. or a.c. electromagnet.
The problem of environmental protection is one of the most pressing issues of today's reality. The automobile being a major source of pollution, various proposals have been advanced to reduce the toxicity of exhaust gas components, e.g. the development of new types of engines and carburetors, use of new fuels and different additives thereto, providing fuel afterburner systems, etc.
However, the majority of solutions hitherto proposed have failed to find broad application due to considerably higher cost and more complicated design of the automobile, low efficiency and failure to settle the question of cleaning exhaust gases of the millions of automobiles in operation.
Higher performance charcteristics shown by internal combustion engines with the fuel mixture properly treated are connected with changes in the physical and chemical parameters of the combustion reaction, reagents and the products of the reaction, which is followed by an increase in the fuel mixture ionization level, and also by a higher density, conductivity, kinetic viscosity and surface tension of fuel drops.
Known in the prior art are various devices for the treatment of fuels, fuel mixtures and oxidizers with the aid of the magnetic field. Thus, U.S. Pat. IPC F02M 27/04 No. 3,805,492, British Pat. IPC F02M 27/04, 27/06 No. 1,304,827, FRG Patent IPC 46c 27/04 No. 2,231,424 describe devices used to impart an electric charge to a liquid or gaseous fuel or a fuel mixture. The electrization of the fuel or fuel mixture is effected by providing the devices with systems of special electrodes with a high electric potential applied thereto, or by using dielectric materials to ensure
