UNIVERSAL FUEL ELECTRICAL PURIFICATOR Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: diesels, engines, turbines. SUBSTANCE: universal fuel purificator has electrical separator and electrical filter. Their working chambers are connected by short branch pipe with water-repelling electrode grid. Electrode grid itself is electrically insulated from branch pipe and is under induced potential from separator and electrical filter working electrodes. Capacity for separated water made in the form of cylindric tank is partitioned from working chamber of electrical separator by three branch pipes with holes. Branch pipes length and number of holes is determined taking account to prevent mixing of fuel and water in conditions of roll and pitch of ± 10 To make fuel purification of much higher degree from impurities electrode system of electrical filter is made on the form of set of dielectric and current conducting cylinders with radial holes, sizes of which in dielectric cylinders are uniformly decreasing from periphery to center. EFFECT: increased fuel purification degree. 3 cl, 4 dwg
