Abstract
The fuel conditioner ionizer, interposed in a fuel line leading to an engine or a furnace, includes a housing, an inlet sealed to the fuel supply line and an outlet sealed to the fuel line leading to the engine or furnace. A plurality of metal wire strands from the plurality of different metals is disposed in the housing. Angular and directional fuel flow is generated by a fluid mixing device mounted in the housing. The mixer is a stationary turbine with a plurality of radially extending blades, circumferentially disposed in the housing. Improvements include an annular ring holding the blades, a central hub in the ring and additional or secondary flow directing blades. A cone or frustoconical segment may be attached or be part of the forward end of the hub to direct the fuel radially outward.
Claims36
An apparatus for treating fuel for increasing fuel combustion efficiency in an internal combustion engine or a furnace supplied with fuel via a fuel line, the fuel line having a fuel line supply segment carrying fuel and a fuel receiving segment in fluid communication with said internal combustion engine or said furnace, comprising:
- a fuel containment housing having an inlet port and an outlet port;
- means for sealingly connecting said housing inlet port to said fuel line supply segment;
- means for sealingly connecting said housing outlet port to said fuel line receiving segment;
- a plurality of metal wire strands formed of a plurality of different metals contained within said housing;
- and
- a fluid mixing device mounted in said fuel containment housing, said fluid mixing device including a plurality of radially extending blades circumferentially disposed at intervals within said fuel containment housing to impart angular flow to said fuel.
