APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING LIQUID HYDROCARBON FUEL TO CHANGE ITS GROUP AND FRACTIONAL COMPOSITION UNDER ELECTRIC FIELD ACTION (VERSIONS) Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC F02M27/04 

FIELD: devices for fuel combustion.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to devices for fuel preparation before combustion. Proposed device comprises housing 1 accommodating electrodes 4 connected to an alternating voltage source. Alternating-current electric field frequency, physical characteristics of fuel and geometric dimensions of the processing device are set in accordance with the formula: f_ef=βEexcV/U²εaπℓt, where: f_ef – frequency of electric field vibrations – 1/s, β=(w/k)N_Avρ/M – depth of fuel modification – 1/m³, w – speed of chemical chain reaction – s^-1, k – rate of radical death in chain-termination reaction – s^-1, N_Av – Avogadro number – mol^-1, ρ – fuel density – kg/m³, V – processed fuel volume – m³, M – molar fuel mass – kg/kmol, U – voltage amplitude on electrodes of the processing device – V, εa =εε₀ – absolute capacitivity of fuel, 1, ℓ – length of processing chamber electrodes – m, t – time of processing fuel – s.

EFFECT: proposed device provides higher quality of fuel, higher heating value and combustion efficiency.
