ABSTRACT:
A split phase fuel conditioner10includes a main body20defining an ignition chamber22. A transfer passage24is in fluid communication between the ignition chamber22and chamber14. A valve28selectively opens and closes a throat26of the transfer passage24to control fluid communication between chamber22and chamber14. A first injector30injects a first fuel volume into ignition chamber22. A second fuel injector32injects a second volume of fuel directly into transfer passage24through the first valve28. The first fuel volume is ignited in the chamber22to form an ignition plasma. Valve28is opened allowing the ignition plasma to condition the second fuel volume by vaporising the second fuel volume. The ignition plasma then sweeps the conditioned second fuel volume into the combustion chamber where it combusts in a controlled manner.
