Means and method of injecting charged fuel into internal combustion engines

Abstract

The invention is a means and method of injecting fuel into the cylinders of an internal combustion engine wherein the fuel is introduced under pressure to each cylinder through a metallic fuel tube having an integral and preferably multiplyorificed nozzle thereon, the tube and nozzle being charged to a high electrical potential, causing injected fuel to assume a charge and be repelled from the nozzle in small droplets which in turn disperse into smaller droplets due to internal repulsion created by the charge, the result being the rapid and thorough atomization of fuel so that quick and more complete combustion will occur. The applied charge may be reversed at the end of the injection cycle to cause current flow between the droplets and the oppositely charged nozzles to ignite, or further speed combustion of, the mixture.
