Device and method for magneto-hydrodynamic treatment of hydrocarbon fuel

Abstract

The claimed group of utility models relates to the field of mechanical engineering, in particular, engine building, namely to systems for the physical and chemical preparation of fuel. In the device for magnetohydrodynamic fuel treatment, which includes a brass housing, ring magnets and separating elements, what is new, according to the claimed group of the utility model, namely the device, is that it contains seven ring magnets, each of which is made with an external diameter of 25 mm, a thickness of 4 mm and an internal channel with a diameter of 5 mm. Steel partitions are installed between the ring magnets, creating 5 mm-wide gaps that ensure magnetic field uniformity and turbulence in the fuel flow, increasing the area of ​​interaction between the magnetic field and the fuel. A 15 mm-long relaxation chamber is located behind the ring magnets, designed to increase the magnetic field exposure time and stabilize the fuel structure. In the method of magnetohydrodynamic fuel processing using the above-described device, according to the claimed group of utility models, the fuel is passed sequentially through the internal channels of seven ring magnets, while in the technological gaps between them, formed by steel partitions, areas of expansion and turbulence of the flow are created. Alternating zones of magnetic field action and turbulent flow expansion intensifies the fuel's interaction with the magnetic field and increases its processing time. After passing through a system of ring magnets, the fuel is directed into a relaxation chamber, where its structure is stabilized by maintaining the achieved changes while reducing flow turbulence. The technical result is expressed in ensuring complete combustion of fuel due to a significant increase in the time of exposure to the magnetic field and an increase in the effective area of ​​interaction of the lines of force with the fuel flow.
