Description
FUEL ENHANCEMENT DEVICES FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES
This invention relates to devices for enhancing the desirable qualities of fuels used in internal combustion engines, commonly designated "petrol" (i.e. "gasoline"), "diesel", "kerosene" or "derv".
One desirable characteristic of such fuels is the "anti-knock" quality which is a measure of the ability, when used in internal combustion engines, to burn smoothly, evenly and predictably. This is commonly determined by ascertaining the point at which pre-ignition (characterised by a knocking sound which is indicative of potential damage to the engine) occurs, and comparing this with a fuel consisting of a mixture of heptane and octane, containing for example 90%, 92%, 94% etc, of the latter - which gives rise to the equivalent "octane number". It is established practice to add octane improvers such as organo-lead compounds (e.g. lead tetraethyl) which may be mixed with alkyl halides (e.g. ethylene dibromide) in order to raise the octane number, especially in the case of petrol. High octane fuels are preferable.
Another desirable characteristic is the ability of the fuel to provide adequate lubrication of the moving components exposed to the ignition process. In this regard, the combustion products of the aforementioned lead compounds (e.g. lead oxide) are effective lubricants.
A further desirable characteristic is that the combustion process should produce a minimum of toxic exhaust emissions such as carbon monoxide, carbon, nitrogen oxides, aldehydes, lead compounds and unburnt fuel, thus reducing possible undesirable environmental effects.
Among the methods currently employed to encourage the reduction of environmental pollution, is the use of "unleaded" petrol. This is an internal combustion engine fuel which contains no added lead compounds, but relies on the use of an increased proportion of aromatic hydrocarbons (such as benzene) in its composition to prevent "knocking". Another method employs catalytic converters containing colloidal platinum to modify the composition of the exhaust gases.
However, these have several practical disadvantages: In the case of unleaded petrol commercially available, the anti-knock qualities of the fuel are considerably reduced, so that the ignition timing of the engine must be retarded to compensate, which in turn adversely affects the power generated.
Furthermore, the combustion characteristics are such that the valve metallurgy must be able to withstand the more hostile conditions which unleaded fuels generally impose compared with leaded fuels.
In the case of catalytic exhaust conversion systems, these are inherently expensive and are easily rendered ineffective by accidental contamination with, for example, traces of leaded fuel.
To overcome some or all of these problems, a number of possible solutions have been suggested. These include the use of tin and its alloys and compounds. A comprehensive review of the literature is contained, for example, in publications of the International Tin Research Institute dated 26 July 1990 entitled "The Chemistry of Tin Alloy-based Fuel Modifying Devices" and "A Select Bibliography on the Uses and Interactions of Tin and Tin-Alloys with Fuels and Oils". These disclose, inter alia, the use of tin and its alloys as additives and catalysts.
To reduce the levels of unburnt fuel in petrol and diesel engines, attention has been given to the design of the combustion chamber in order to promote more efficient mixing of the vaporised fuel and air before ignition takes place.
Our invention consists of devices incorporating a magnet in close proximity to a ferrous metal core on which is wound in physical contact a coil of wire consisting essentially of tin, or tin in conjunction with other specified metals. The effect is enhanced by enclosing the devices in a case containing metal dissimilar to the other metals present.
The devices provide an array of magnetic, electro-chemical and catalytic processes, which singly or in combination, enable unleaded fuels to be used instead of leaded fuels without substantial modification to the ignition timing or valve metallurgy of the engine and may be inserted into the fuel line, used to treat fuel in bulk, or be incorporated into the carburettor or other metering mechanism.
It is a further feature that the devices promote the more complete combustion of internal combustion engine fuels, whether of the "petrol" variety or the "diesel" variety, thus increasing the distance travelled from a given amount of fuel and reducing the emission of unoxidised fuel.
The advantages of these devices include: economy in the use of fuel, less environmental pollution, more responsive engine power, and a reduction of undesirable deposits of lead and carbon in the engine.
The aforementioned array consists of one or more of the following components acting either singly or in combination: 1 A magnet, especially a magnet with a power of at least 1000 gauss
measured at its surface.
2 A ferrous metal core, which may itself also be a magnet.
3 A coil of metal wire containing tin or a tin alloy, in contact with
the core.
4 A case containing a metal dissimilar to the other components present.
A preferred arrangement is illustrated, although not limited by, the attached drawing (Figure 1) showing the elements numbered as above.
The magnet is conveniently made of, for example, cobalt steel, or a rare earth metal or alloy, or a ceramic material, or a metal nitride.
The core preferably consists of iron or steel.
The coil is fabricated from tin or tin alloyed, coated or mixed with a metal or metals selected from a group which includes: aluminium, antimony, cobalt, iron, lead, magnesium, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, silver, vanadium, zinc.
The casing is preferably constructed from copper, brass, aluminium, zinc or metal castings containing any of these metals.
Under suitable conditions of use, several chemical, electro-chemical, electrosynthetical and catalytic processes are or may be involved, which may result in one or more of the following reactions occurring: a The transport of tin molecules via the fuel to the combustion chamber,
thus improving the combustion and lubrication qualities of the fuel.
b The synthesis of beneficial organic compoumds from the aromatic
content, under the influence of the tin or tin compounds.
c The voltages generated by the presence of dissimilar metals.
d The electrical effect produced by the mechanical agitation of the
magnetic element of the devices when installed in moving vehicles.
Whatever the precise nature of these reactions, the practical benefits are generally found to include: a smoother, cleaner, more responsive engine; an improvement in fuel consumption averaging 7% with "urban cycle" driving and of at least 10% at a constant 70 mph; a reduction in noxious exhaust emissions of at least 30%.
