Claim 0:
1. A method for reducing combustion time and/or combustion temperature in an internal combustion engine, comprising:
generating, via an electrolysis cell, an oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture;
generating an ionized oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture that includes oxygen ions and hydrogen ions by ionizing the oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture;
replacing a portion of an intake air stream with between 0.01-0.03 liters per minute of the ionized oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture that includes oxygen ions and hydrogen ions per liter of engine displacement; and
controlling a rate of replacing the portion of the intake air stream in relation to engine speed to reduce unburnt fuel at the end of a combustion cycle of the internal combustion engine by more than 10%,
wherein the internal combustion engine is a turbo-charged diesel engine installed on a truck,
wherein the electrolysis cell is equipped with an electrolyte circulation loop comprising a radiator onboard the truck, and
wherein the ionized oxygen-hydrogen gas mixture that includes oxygen ions and hydrogen ions is introduced upstream of a turbofan.
