Abstract:
1. A pre-injection fuel atomization system for cleaner, more efficient combustion in an internal combustion engine, comprising: at least one fuel holding chamber having a float therein, the float monitoring the amount of fuel in the chamber and signaling the amount of fuel in the chamber, the at least one fuel holding chamber in fluid communication with a fuel pump; at least one transducer chamber having a transducer therein with a vibrating crystal, the vibrating crystal operative for atomizing fuel into an aerosol, the aerosol having a multiplicity of microscopic fuel droplets in air, the transducer in fluid communication with the at least one fuel holding chamber and in fluid communication with a fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine; and a controller in electrical communication with an ignition system of the internal combustion engine, the controller in electrical communication with the float and regulating flow rate of fuel into the at least one fuel holding chamber in response to the signal from the float and further regulating the flow rate and volume of fuel from the fuel holding chamber into the transducer chamber, the controller in electrical communication with the vibrating crystal in the at least one transducer chamber, the vibrating crystal producing the fuel aerosol, the fuel aerosol flowing from the at least one transducer chamber to the fuel injection system operative for introducing the aerosol to the engine, the aerosol cleanly and efficiently burning in the internal combustion engine.
