Description

FUEL SAVING DEVICE INCREASING THE COMBUSTION EFFICIENCY

Technical Field

The invention relates to a device that provides savings in fuel, wherein said device, as a result of being applied to any kind of petroleum-based fuel system, forms an "electromagnetic field" by means of a coil wound around the fuel delivery pipe for the fuels passing through said device, and enables the fuel to be combusted at an ideal rate owing to the magnetic field formed by charging the hydrocarbon (HC) molecules in the fuel with positive ions.

Background of the Invention

Hydrocarbons (HC) constitute the primary component for the fuel made of petroleum derivatives. Hydrogen, the lightest element known, comprises the most important part of the hydrocarbon fuels. It has positive (proton) and negative (electron) charge. In other words, it has dipole moment. It may be diamagnetic or paramagnetic, depending on the relative locations of its nucleus spins. That is to say, they show either a weak or strong reaction to a magnetic field.

Consequently, even though it is the simplest of the elements, it exists in two clear isomeric forms defined by the two different nucleus spins. These are its para and ortho forms. Thus, in para hydrogen molecule existing in the levels of two spins, the spin form of one atom is in the opposite direction relative to the other. And this makes it diamagnetic.

On the other hand, in ortho hydrogen molecule that exists in the levels of single spin, the spins are parallel. The locations of the atoms are the same. This is a paramagnetic event and acts as catalyst in many reactions. As a result, the layout of the spins have a great influence on the physical properties and the motions of the fuel molecule. Parallel spins render ortho hydrogen excessively variable. Ortho hydrogen shows even more reaction than para hydrogen. Ortho hydrogen form strengthens and accelerates the combustion process. In the normal combustion condition of the fuel, it is very difficult for hydrogen to reach combustion adequacy.

In order to bring the hydrocarbon molecule from its para form into its ortho form with higher energy, a sufficiently strong magnetic field must be generated. Para hydrocarbons basically have a cage-like structure. Hence, the oxidation of the interior carbons is prevented during the combustion process and these form the carbon clusters, meaning a bigger grouping. Entrance of an equal amount of oxygen is prevented into the group molecules. However, when a magnetic field is applied to the fuel, the entrance of an equal amount of oxygen may be provided into the molecules brought into the ortho hydrocarbon form, and thus the most efficient combustion may be obtained.

Hydrocarbons form closely spaced molecules, and no sufficient oxygen may enter their inner sections. Therefore, the combustion does not take place in a complete manner. Hydrocarbon molecules form the micro groups, and clog the pipes and fuel nozzles. Consequently, a portion of the flue and exhaust gases contain non-combusted carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC).

Non-combusted hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emitted from the flue system mean the fuel that is wasted. Because, under normal conditions, hydrocarbon (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) may be combusted to a higher extent in the combustion chamber. The chemical reaction of hydrogen is affected by the magnetic field, depending on the charge. The reason is that the magnetic fields are the main source for the direction control of the electrons.

According to the state of the art, there are present the devices that include a magnet to generate a magnetic field, which will convert the hydrocarbon molecule from its para form into its ortho form with higher energy. Said magnet-derived devices damage the mechanism where they are used, and they do not operate at full efficiency. Moreover, they loose their magnet property after a while, and become unable to generate the desired magnetic field.

ABD patent document no. US 20020074064, European patent document no. EP 0852291 , Russian patent document no. RU 2184868 and Russian patent document no. RU 2234181 disclose the method for generating magnetic fields by means of the magnet-containing devices, in order to convert the hydrocarbon molecule from its para form into its ortho form with higher energy.

Above-mentioned patent documents relate to the passive resonance systems, which enable the hydrocarbon molecule to be converted from its para form into its ortho form with higher energy. On the other hand, the device disclosed in the present patent document comprises the active magnetic fuel strengthening system via electrical connection, wherein the invention relates to bringing the hydrocarbon molecule from its para form into its ortho form with higher energy by way of generating the electromagnetic field.

Based on said state of the art, the object of the invention is to obtain a device that, as a result of being applied to any kind of petroleum-based fuel system, forms an "electromagnetic field" for the fuels passing through said device, in order to convert the hydrocarbon (HC) molecule in the fuel from its para form into its ortho form with higher energy, thereby increasing the combustion efficiency of the fuel and consequently, providing fuel savings.

Application of a suitable magnetic field for achieving this object leads to beneficial changes in the fuel structure, which in turn increase the combustion. When the hydrocarbon fuel is combusted, first the hydrogen atoms are oxidized and it is only this time during which the hydrogen atoms are combusted. Since it takes less time for the hydrogen atoms to be oxidized in the high speed internal combustion process, some of the carbons are not completely oxidized under normal conditions, leading to incomplete combustion. As known, oxygen easily combines with hydrogen, but carbon-oxygen reaction is a little more difficult to take place. To put it in a more detailed way, oxygen has always -2 charge, while the carbon charge is plus or minus depending on the configuration of the four electrons present on the outer shell thereof. Exactly 8 electrons are necessary to complete the structure. HC molecules inside the fuel are in a neutral state. HC molecules passing through the magnetic field become + charged, and when these are combined with the - charged oxygen in the combustion environment, a near to complete combustion is obtained.

In order to achieve said object, there is provided a coil wound around a fuel delivery pipe in a way to form a magnetic field. The number of windings may be preferably divided into primary and secondary windings. In order to prevent damage to the windings from the external ambience, these are enclosed by protectors on the side surfaces and the circumference.

The hydrocarbon chains, the principal elements of the fuels, exist in the form of more or less piled helices. In order for this energy pile to be completely combusted, it must be combined with oxygen (02) in a very effective manner. Inability of oxygen to completely reach every chain reduces the combustion efficiency, that is, it leads to the inability to benefit from the theoretical energy. On the other hand, said device enables the hydrocarbon chains to be passed through an electro-magnetic field and to be organized in this manner, like a wool hank being converted to a wool hank with parallel yarns. In this way, the extent of combination of the energy-carrying hydrocarbon chains with oxygen is increased, thus a better fuel consumption, more efficient utilization of the fuel energy, and also, due to better combustion, a cleaner exhaust emission are provided. This outcome is of economic importance due to the more efficient utilization of the fuel energy as well as ecological importance owing to the cleaner emission provided.

The most important difference of our invention as compared to the prior art is that the electromagnetic field is realized by means of a group of windings, instead of the magnet. The magnetic field generated by the magnet is a passive electro magnetic field. However, the magnetic field generated with the device according to the invention is an active electro magnetic field. Effect of the electromagnetic field may be reduced or increased by varying the amount of electrical energy reaching the coil and also the number of windings. This makes it possible to form an electromagnetic field, which is adjustable according to the type of fuel.

In our device according to the invention, particular adjustments and controls are provided by means of a chip; wherein it is possible to continuously monitor the fuel combustion process, to check the current in generating the electro-magnetic field and to determine whether the system operates in an optimal level as a whole.

Owing to the measuring device added to the fuel saving device according to the invention, it is possible to determine the amount of fuel saved by the user, in accordance with the information obtained from the chips.

The engine structure is protected, the formation of soot is prevented, and thus, the running noise of the engine is reduced. It especially prevents the noisy operation in the vehicles that run on diesel fuel. Since the combustion efficiency is increased, the engine traction is enhanced. It leads to a 4 times longer and 5 times longer oil change interval in the diesel engines and gasoline engines, respectively. The most important feature of our device according to the invention is that it is environment friendly.

The devices produced according to the prior art do not have a measuring device to determine how much saving is achieved. The users of the device may not learn in a reliable manner the amount they save. They are able to learn the amount they save only by making a comparison of the distance in kilometers covered. However, a measuring device is added to the saving device according to the invention. The amount saved is transmitted to the measuring device by means of the chips located under the windings. Users obtain such information from the measuring device.

The saving devices used according to the prior art are in the form of a rectangular prism. Because they have a square shape, while the fuel delivery pipes have a cylindrical formation, the magnetic field generated by the saving devices may not be applied to the fuel in a desired manner and consequently, the efficiency reduces. However, in our saving device according to the invention, the device is manufactured with a cylindrical shape, and the formed magnetic field may be applied more effectively to the fuel passing through the cylindrical fuel delivery pipe.

Owing to the invention, a healthy combustion takes place in the engine; hence the fuel residues (soot) are eliminated and the oil life is prolonged. Since carbon monoxide gas is not released as a waste product of combustion, the device is environment friendly. It also increases the lifetime and the power of the engine.

Description of the Invention

Our invention relates to a device that, as a result of being applied to any kind of petroleum- based fuel system, forms an "electromagnetic field" by means of the coil wound around the fuel delivery pipe for the fuels passing through said device, and enables an ideal extent of combustion for the fuel and provides fuel savings, owing to the magnetic field formed by charging the hydrocarbon (HC) molecules in the fuel with positive ions.

Figure-2 is a sectional drawing that illustrates an example application of the fuel saving device. On the fuel delivery line (15), there is mounted the saving device, which comprises a fuel delivery pipe (2) with at least one inlet (13) and at least one outlet (14), a protective outer body (1) and side covers (11) and a coil group (3) enabling to receive the energy from the outside and a device measuring box (6) that measures the amount of saving achieved during the operation of the device.

The dimensions of the fuel saving device vary depending on the amount of fuel to pass via the fuel delivery line (15). The preferred dimensions for the device are a fuel delivery pipe (2) diameter of 4 mm and a body (1) length of 200 mm for the vehicles with an engine capacity of 1300 cc-1600 cc, and a fuel delivery pipe (2) diameter of 10 mm and a body (1) length of 250 mm for the vehicles with an engine capacity of 2500 cc to 5000 cc. 12-24 volt DC-AC voltage is applied to the device feed cable (4) according to the engine capacity. In cases where the industry type burners etc. with high fuel consumption capacity are involved, the devices may also be connected parallel to the systems, to the extent permitted by the device capacities.

Hydrocarbon molecules inside the fuel are in a neutral state. Hydrocarbon molecules passing through the magnetic field become + charged, and when these are combined with the - charged oxygen in the combustion environment, a near to complete combustion is obtained. For this purpose, at least one coil group (3) is formed on the fuel delivery line (15), said coil group being fed externally by a device feed cable (4) to generate a magnetic field.

Body (1) is preferably made of stainless steel sheet pipe. Fuel delivery pipe (2) is formed from stainless rolled steel anti-magnetic seamless pipe. Said coil group (3) is wound onto a coil spool, and is positioned between the device side covers (11) and the body (1). The insulation material (9), which prevents the effect of the magnetic field from being reflected to the outside, is used between said body and said coil group (3). A fuse (5) is used to provide the safety of the system. Fuse (5) is positioned into the device measuring box (6) on the body (1). Rectifier diode (7) and 1 ,5-volt resistance (8) are placed inside the device measuring box (6). Device measuring box (6) is externally mounted to the fuel saving device and it enables the measurement of the fuel consumption data. Chips (16), which are connected to said device measuring box (6) and transfer the data to the device measuring box, are located on said coil group (3).

In order to enable a better understanding of the device according to the invention, the information and the results of the experiments are provided below, which are conducted with the fuel saving device mounted on different vehicles.

EXPERIMENT:

Trial Method: Fuel saving device was mounted on TF 80-66 and TF 480 tractors. To demonstrate the effect in different operating regimes, the vehicle was run without load at 1500 1/min engine revolution and at 540 1/min PTO and at 1967 1/min corresponding to BG. Engine loading was performed by hydraulic brake device, fuel consumption was determined at 45-minute periods by means of the measured container method, and the exhaust gas was assessed by means of a smoke measuring device used in the control of the diesel engines.

At the end of the experiment, the requirement sought in the exhaust gas measurements related to the environmental protection is an exhaust emission value smaller than 2.5 (K<2.5) for the diesel engines. The trial tractor (TF 80-66) was found to comply with this requirement. However, with the device according to the invention, the K value was determined to exhibit an improvement of 7.57% in the operation without load, and 18.5% in the operation under load.

Thus, in the stoichiometric tests of the combustion obtained after applying the voltage on the fuel saving device by means of the device feed cable (4), the hydrocarbons (non-combusted fuel) and carbon monoxide were observed to reduce by an extent of 75-92% and 99,9%, respectively.

The scientifically measurable ratio of emission reduction/combustion efficiency yielded an average increase of 15% to 35%.

The saving device according to the invention may be used in any kind of vehicle running on petroleum products, such as the cars, vessels and airplanes.
