Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum Behandeln von flüssigem Brenn- und Treibstoff vor der Verbrennung durch Beaufschlagung mit einem elektromagnetischen Wechselfeld.The invention relates to a method for treating liquid fuel before combustion by exposure to an alternating electromagnetic field.
Es ist bereits bekannt, in einem Dieselmotor eines Lastkraftwagens benachbart zur Zufuhrleitung einen Permanentmagneten anzuordnen, durch dessen Wirkung eine Reduzierung des Verbrauches an Dieselöl erreicht wird. Diese ist jedoch verhältnismäßig gering, denn sie beträgt im günstigen Fall nicht mehr als 5 %. Darüber hinaus hängt sie insbesondere von der Ausrichtung des Permanentmagneten bezüglich des Magnetfeldes der Erde ab.It is already known to arrange a permanent magnet in a diesel engine of a truck adjacent to the supply line, the effect of which is to reduce the consumption of diesel oil. However, this is relatively low, because in the best case it is not more than 5%. In addition, it depends in particular on the orientation of the permanent magnet with respect to the magnetic field of the earth.
Es ist ferner bekannt, den flüssigen Brenn- oder Treibstoff für einen Verbrennungsmotor mit einem elektromagnetischen Wechselfeld zu beaufschlagen (EP-A-0 389 888), wozu es auch bekannt ist, ein Wechselfeld mit einer Frequenz zwischen 16,5 Hz und 20 Hz einzusetzen (DE-A-1 037 765). Diese Beaufschlagung führt jedoch nur zu einer äußerst geringfügigen Verbrauchsreduzierung.It is also known to apply an alternating electromagnetic field to the liquid fuel for an internal combustion engine (EP-A-0 389 888), for which it is also known to use an alternating field with a frequency between 16.5 Hz and 20 Hz (DE-A-1 037 765). However, this loading only leads to an extremely slight reduction in consumption.
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Möglichkeit zum Behandeln von flüssigem Brenn- und Treibstoff, vorzugsweise von Dieselöl, vor der Verbrennung zu schaffen, durch die der Verbrauch an Brenn- oder Treibstoff bei Erzielung gleicher Leistung aus der Verbrennung verringert wird.It is an object of the invention to provide a way of treating liquid fuel and fuel, preferably diesel oil, before combustion, by means of which the consumption of fuel or Fuel is reduced while achieving the same performance from the combustion.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird ein Verfahren der eingangs erwähnten Art erfindungsgemäß derart ausgestaltet, daß das elektromagnetische Feld von einem elektrischen Strom mit einer Grundschwingung einer Frequenz zwischen 60 Hz und 150 Hz, die in jeder Halbwelle zumindest einen, vorzugsweise zumindest zwei geradlinige Kurvenabschnitte aufweist, sowie ganzzahligen Harmonischen der Grundschwingung erzeugt wird, wobei der Strom vorzugsweise in jeder Halbwelle einen waagerechten Kurvenabschnitt, insbesondere die Form einer Rechteckkurve hat.To achieve this object, a method of the type mentioned at the outset is designed in accordance with the invention in such a way that the electromagnetic field is generated by an electric current with a fundamental vibration of a frequency between 60 Hz and 150 Hz, which has at least one, preferably at least two, straight-line curve sections in each half-wave, and Integer harmonics of the fundamental oscillation are generated, the current preferably having a horizontal curve section in each half-wave, in particular in the form of a rectangular curve.
Durch die Kombination von gewählter Frequenz der Grundschwingung und die durch die geradlinigen Kurvenabschnitte, insbesondere bei einer Rechteckwelle erzeugten zahlreichen, hochfrequenten Oberwellen oder Harmonischen, ergibt sich eine überraschend ausgeprägte Reduzierung des Brenn- oder Treibstoffverbrauchs.The combination of the selected frequency of the fundamental oscillation and the numerous, high-frequency harmonics or harmonics generated by the straight-line curve sections, in particular in the case of a square wave, results in a surprisingly pronounced reduction in the fuel or fuel consumption.
Insbesondere wenn die Frequenz der Grundschwingung zwischen 80 Hz und 120 Hz, vorzugsweise zwischen 90 Hz und 110 Hz liegt, ergibt sich eine überraschend hohe Reduzierung des Brenn- oder Treibstoffverbrauches, die, verglichen mit einem Betrieb ohne Beaufschlagung durch ein elektromagnetisches Feld, oberhalb von 10 % liegt und die im Optimum etwa 22 % beträgt.Particularly when the frequency of the fundamental oscillation is between 80 Hz and 120 Hz, preferably between 90 Hz and 110 Hz, there is a surprisingly high reduction in fuel or fuel consumption, which is above 10 compared to operation without exposure to an electromagnetic field % lies and which is optimally about 22%.
Selbstverständlich ist es erforderlich, eine ausreichende Leistungsdichte des elektromagnetischen Feldes sicherzustellen, was für den einzelnen Anwendungsfall ohne weiteres durch Versuche erreicht werden kann. So hat sich gezeigt, daß für serienmäßige Kraftfahrzeugmotoren bei Verwendung einer eine Brennstoffzufuhrleitung umgebenden Spule mit ca. 30 Windungen ein dieser zugeführter Strom in der Größenordnung von 4 mA bis 6 mA und einer Amplitude von etwa 2 VSS ausreicht, während eine Erhöhung des Stroms über 10 mA und/oder der Amplitude über 10 VSS keine nenenswerte zusätzliche Wirkung mehr verursacht.Of course, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient power density of the electromagnetic field, which can easily be achieved by tests for the individual application. It has been shown that for standard motor vehicle engines using a coil surrounding a fuel supply line with approximately 30 windings, a current supplied in the order of 4 mA to 6 mA and an amplitude of approximately 2 V SS is sufficient, while an increase in the current above 10 mA and / or the amplitude above 10 V SS no longer caused any significant additional effect.
Da der jeweilige Brenn- oder Treibstoff etwa Dieselöl, Heizöl, Benzin, Kerosin, Alkohol (z.B. Methanol), Pflanzenöle, in seiner Zusammensetzung schwanken kann, schwankt auch die für den jeweiligen Brenn- oder Treibstoff optimale Grundfrequenz. Es ist daher zweckmäßig, die Grundfrequenz periodisch, etwa mit einer Periode von 1 bis 10 sec, vorzugsweise 2 bis 8 sec und insbesondere 4 sec bis 8 sec einen Frequenzbereich durchlaufen zu lassen, wobei dieser Bereich beispielsweise mit den vorstehend genannten Frequenzbereichen übereinstimmen kann. Auf jeden Fall sollte dieser Frequenzbereich für zur Zeit handelsübliches Diesel- und Heizöl sowie Benzin die Frequenz 100 Hz enthalten, da diese offenbar die optimale Frequenz ist bzw. die optimale Frequenz im Bereich nahe um 100 Hz liegt.Since the composition of the respective fuel or fuel, such as diesel oil, heating oil, gasoline, kerosene, alcohol (e.g. methanol), vegetable oils, the basic frequency that is optimal for the particular fuel or fuel also fluctuates. It is therefore expedient to have the basic frequency run through a frequency range periodically, for example with a period of 1 to 10 seconds, preferably 2 to 8 seconds and in particular 4 seconds to 8 seconds, this range being able to correspond, for example, to the frequency ranges mentioned above. In any case, this frequency range for currently commercially available diesel and heating oil and gasoline should contain the frequency 100 Hz, since this is obviously the optimal frequency or the optimal frequency is in the range close to 100 Hz.
Es sei erwähnt, daß die Speisung der Spule allein mit einem sinusförmigen Strom der Grundfrequenz, also ohne Oberschwingungen, nicht zu einer Wirkung in Richtung der Reduzierung des Verbrauchs von Brenn- oder Treibstoff führt.It should be mentioned that feeding the coil with a sinusoidal current of the fundamental frequency alone, ie without harmonics, does not lead to an effect in the direction of reducing the consumption of fuel or fuel.
Wenn das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zur Behandlung von Dieselöl oder Heizöl eingesetzt wird, kann die mehrere Windungen aufweisende Spule die Zufuhrleitung zur Einspritzdüse eines Dieselmotors oder einer Ölheizungsanlage umgebend angeordnet sein. Für den Fall, daß das Verfahren bei einem Benzin verbrennenden Viertakt-Motor angewendet wird, kann die mehrere Windungen aufweisende Spule die Zufuhrleitung zum Vergaser oder zur Einspritzanlage des Viertakt-Verbrennungsmotors umgebend angeordnet werden. Die Spule muß nicht unbedingt in der Nähe der Einspritzdüse angeordnet werden; sie kann die Zufuhrleitung auch an anderer Stelle umgeben, beispielsweise in dem vom Tank zu der Kraftstoffpumpe führenden Teil der Leitung.If the method according to the invention is used for the treatment of diesel oil or heating oil, the multi-turn coil can be arranged surrounding the feed line to the injection nozzle of a diesel engine or an oil heating system. In the event that the method is applied to a gasoline-burning four-stroke engine, the multi-turn coil can be arranged surrounding the feed line to the carburetor or to the injection system of the four-stroke internal combustion engine. The coil does not necessarily have to be placed near the injector; it can also surround the supply line at another location, for example in the part of the line leading from the tank to the fuel pump.
Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand der Beispiele näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the examples.
Für einen Versuch wurde ein serienmäßiger BMW 520 T-Diesel benutzt. Das Fahrzeug wurde auf einem Leistungs-Rollenprüfstand gegen normalen Fahrtwiderstand mit 100 km/h betrieben, nachdem es zuvor durch eine längere Fahrt auf Betriebstemperatur gebracht worden war.A standard BMW 520 T-Diesel was used for an experiment. The vehicle was operated on a performance roller dynamometer against normal driving resistance at 100 km / h after having been brought up to operating temperature by a long journey.
Die Vor- und Rücklaufleitung für den Dieselkraftstoff wurde zwischen Motor und Tank aufgetrennt, und beide Leitungen wurden in einen zylindrischen Meßbecher mit eingravierter Skalenteilung eingeführt, der handelsübliches Dieselöl (BP) enthielt. Die Teilstriche der Meßskala hatten einen Abstand von 4 mm, was einem Meßbechervolumen von 50 ml entsprach.The supply and return lines for the diesel fuel were separated between the engine and the tank, and both lines were inserted into a cylindrical measuring cup with an engraved scale division, which contained commercially available diesel oil (BP). The graduations on the measuring scale were 4 mm apart, which corresponded to a measuring cup volume of 50 ml.
Das Fahrzeug wurde zunächst ohne Modifikation des Motors gestartet und lief mit mittlerer Drehzahl solange, bis Saug- und Rücklaufleitung blasenfrei waren. Dann wurde auf 100 km/h beschleunigt und bei Erreichen dieser Geschwindigkeit mit der Messung begonnen. Nach einer Betriebszeit von 3 Minuten zeigte sich an der Skalenteilung des Meßbechers ein Kraftstoffverbrauch von 5 Teilstrichen, also 0,25 Liter.The vehicle was initially started without modification of the engine and ran at medium speed until the suction and return lines were free of bubbles. The vehicle was then accelerated to 100 km / h and the measurement was started when this speed was reached. After an operating time of 3 minutes, the scale division of the measuring cup showed a fuel consumption of 5 graduation marks, i.e. 0.25 liters.
Das Fahrzeug wurde nach diesem Versuch mit Spulen ausgerüstet, die ca. 30 Windungen aufwiesen, wobei um jede der Zufuhrleitungen zur Einspritzdüse jedes Zylinders eine Spule gelegt wurde. Die Spulen wurden mit einer Versorgungsschaltung verbunden, die die Spulen mit einem Strom von 4,5 mA speisten, wobei der Strom die Form einer Rechteckwelle mit einer Amplitude von 2 VSS hatte, die mit einer Periode von 6 sec einen Frequenzbereich von 0 Hz bis 400 Hz durchlief.After this test, the vehicle was equipped with coils which had approximately 30 turns, a coil being placed around each of the feed lines to the injection nozzle of each cylinder. The coils were connected to a supply circuit which fed the coils with a current of 4.5 mA, the current being in the form of a square wave with an amplitude of 2 V SS , which with a period of 6 sec had a frequency range from 0 Hz to Passed through 400 Hz.
Der vorstehend beschriebene Versuch auf dem Leistungs-Rollenprüfstand wurde dann in gleicher Weise, jedoch mit mit elektrischer Leistung beaufschlagten Spulen wiederholt. Nach 3 Minuten zeigte sich ein Kraftstoffverbrauch an der Skalenteilung des Meßbechers von 4 Teilstrichen, also 0,20 Liter.The test described above on the power roller dynamometer was then repeated in the same way, but with coils loaded with electrical power. After 3 minutes showed there is a fuel consumption on the scale division of the measuring cup of 4 graduation marks, i.e. 0.20 liters.
Das Fahrzeug aus dem Beispiel 1 wurde einerseits ohne elektromagnetische Felder erzeugende Spulen und andererseits mit in der im Beispiel 1 beschriebenen Weise beaufschlagten Spulen über eine Strecke von 500 km gefahren, wobei in beiden Betriebsfällen die gleiche Strecke gefahren und die Fahrgeschwindigkeit, im Rahmen des möglichen, gleichgehalten wurde.The vehicle from Example 1 was driven on the one hand without coils generating electromagnetic fields and on the other hand with the coils applied in the manner described in Example 1 over a distance of 500 km, the same route being driven in both operating cases and the driving speed, within the scope of the possible, was kept the same.
Im Betrieb ohne aktivierte Spule ergab sich ein Verbrauch von Kraftstoff von etwa 11 Liter auf 100 km, während der Verbrauch bei beaufschlagten Spulen bei etwa 8,7 Liter pro 100 km lag.When the coil was not activated, the fuel consumption was approximately 11 liters per 100 km, while the load on the coils was approximately 8.7 liters per 100 km.
Der Versuch aus dem Beispiel 1 wurde wiederholt, jedoch wurde die Spule mit einer Rechteckwelle konstanter Frequenz von 100 Hz beaufschlagt. Die Reduzierung des Kraftstoffverbrauches war die gleiche wie im Beispiel 1.The experiment from example 1 was repeated, but the coil was subjected to a square wave of constant frequency of 100 Hz. The reduction in fuel consumption was the same as in Example 1.
Der Versuch aus Beispiel 1 wurde wiederholt, jedoch wurde die Spule mit einer Rechteckwelle mit einem Strom von 4,5 mA und einer Amplitude von 2 VSS gespeist, die mit einer Periode von 6 sec den Frequenzbereich von 0 Hz bis 833 Hz durchlief. Die Reduzierung des Kraftstoffverbrauches betrug lediglich etwa 9 %.The experiment from Example 1 was repeated, but the coil was fed with a square wave with a current of 4.5 mA and an amplitude of 2 V SS , which ran through the frequency range from 0 Hz to 833 Hz with a period of 6 sec. The reduction in fuel consumption was only around 9%.
Die deutliche verringerte Reduzierung des Kraftstoffverbrauchs gegenüber den Beispielen 1 und 3 hat offenbar ihre Ursache darin, daß die eigentlich wirksamen Frequenzen um 100 Hz während des Überlaufens des verhältnismäßig großen Frequenzbereichs nur kurzzeitig auf den Kraftstoff einwirken konnten, so daß nicht die volle Wirksamkeit erreicht wird.The significantly reduced reduction in fuel consumption compared to Examples 1 and 3 apparently is due to the fact that the actually effective frequencies around 100 Hz during the overflow of the relatively large frequency range only could act briefly on the fuel, so that the full effectiveness is not achieved.
Der Versuch aus Beispiel 1 wurde wiederholt, wobei die Spule mit einer Rechteckwelle mit einer Frequenz von 180 Hz beaufschlagt wurde. Es ergab sich keine Reduzierung des Kraftstoffverbrauches.The experiment from Example 1 was repeated, the coil being subjected to a square wave with a frequency of 180 Hz. There was no reduction in fuel consumption.
Der Versuch aus Beispiel 1 wurde wiederholt, jedoch wurde die Spule mit einer Rechteckewelle mit einer Frequenz von 440 Hz beaufschlagt. Auch in diesem Fall ergab sich keine Reduzierung des Kraftstoffverbrauches.The experiment from Example 1 was repeated, but the coil was subjected to a square wave with a frequency of 440 Hz. In this case, too, there was no reduction in fuel consumption.
Mit einem Personenkraftwagen (Chrysler Voyager 3,0 LE) mit Viertakt-Motor mit Einspritzanlage wurde der Versuch entsprechend Beispiel 2 wiederholt, wobei die Spule um die Zufuhrleitung zur Einspritzanlage gelegt wurde. Die Spule wurde mit einem Strom von 5 mA gespeist, der die Form einer Rechteckwelle mit einer Amplitude von 3 VSS und einer Frequenz von 100 Hz hatte. Der Benzinverbrauch (Shell Normalbenzin bleifrei) wurde mit einem elektrischen Durchflußmesser gemessen. Das Fahrzeug wurde auf der Autobahn bei Windstille und etwa 5°C Außentemperatur mit eingestellter Geschwindigkeit (Tempomat) ohne und mit mit Leistung beaufschlagter Spule gefahren.The experiment was repeated as in Example 2 with a passenger car (Chrysler Voyager 3.0 LE) with a four-stroke engine with an injection system, the coil being placed around the supply line to the injection system. The coil was supplied with a current of 5 mA, which was in the form of a square wave with an amplitude of 3 V SS and a frequency of 100 Hz. The gasoline consumption (Shell regular gasoline unleaded) was measured with an electric flow meter. The vehicle was driven on the highway with no wind and about 5 ° C outside temperature with the set speed (cruise control) without and with the coil under power.
Beim Betrieb des Fahrzeugs mit einer Geschwindigkeit von 100 km/h ergab sich bei Betrieb mit mit Leistung beaufschlagter Spule gegenüber dem Betrieb ohne Spule eine Reduzierung des Benzinverbrauches von 5 % und bei einem Betrieb mit einer Geschwindigkeit von 120 km/h eine Reduzierung des Benzinverbrauches von 8 %.When the vehicle was operated at a speed of 100 km / h, there was a 5% reduction in gasoline consumption when operating with the coil under power compared to operation without a coil, and a reduction in gasoline consumption when operating at a speed of 120 km / h 8th %.
Die durchgeführten Untersuchungen zeigen, daß durch Beaufschlagung von im Jahr 1993 in Deutschland handelsüblichem flüssigem Brenn- oder Treibstoff, insbesondere Heiz- und Dieselöl sowie Benzin, mit einem elektromagnetischen Feld, das von einem Strom in Form einer infolge geradliniger Kurvenabschnitte verursachte Oberschwingungen aufweisenden Welle erzeugt wird, eine Reduzierung des Verbrauchs erreicht werden kann, wenn die Frequenz der Grundschwingung der Welle nahe 100 Hz oder genau bei 100 Hz liegt, daß jedoch praktisch keine Reduzierung des Verbrauchs erreicht wird, wenn die Frequenz der Grundschwingung weniger als 50 Hz oder 180 Hz oder mehr beträgt. Darüber hinaus zeigt sich, daß es für die Verbrauchsreduzierung eine Größe der der Spule zugeführten elektrischen Leistung gibt, oberhalb der keine weitere Verbrauchsreduzierung mehr erfolgt. Sollte sich die Kraftstoffzusammensetzung jedoch ändern, beispielsweise hinsichtlich der Viskosität, der Dichte, etc., so könnte die optimale Wirkung auch mit einer anderen Frequenz erreicht werden, die je nach Zusammensetzung des Kraftstoffs kleiner oder größer als 100 Hz, oder sogar größer als 150 Hz sein könnte. Es bereitet dem Fachmann in Kenntnis der vorliegenden Erfindung keine Schwierigkeiten, die optimale Frequenz zu ermitteln.The investigations carried out show that the exposure to liquid fuel or propellant commercially available in Germany in 1993, in particular heating and diesel oil and petrol, with an electromagnetic field which is generated by a current in the form of a wave exhibiting harmonics as a result of rectilinear curve sections , a reduction in consumption can be achieved when the frequency of the fundamental wave of the wave is close to 100 Hz or exactly at 100 Hz, but practically no reduction in consumption is achieved when the frequency of the fundamental wave is less than 50 Hz or 180 Hz or more is. In addition, it is shown that there is a size of the electrical power supplied to the coil for the reduction in consumption, above which there is no further reduction in consumption. However, should the fuel composition change, for example in terms of viscosity, density, etc., the optimal effect could also be achieved with a different frequency, which, depending on the composition of the fuel, is less than or greater than 100 Hz, or even greater than 150 Hz could be. Knowing the present invention, the person skilled in the art has no difficulty in determining the optimum frequency.
