Abstract:
A fuel vaporization and mixing system for producing a mixture of fuel vapor, atomized water and air for delivery into an internal combustion engine having an engine exhaust system, comprising:a fuel source for holding fuel prior to vaporization; a fuel pump in fluid communication with said fuel source for delivering fuel from said fuel source; a vapor collecting chamber in fluid communication with said fuel pump for holding a quantity of fuel while the quantity of fuel is vaporized, said vapor collecting chamber being in thermal communication with the engine exhaust system to draw fuel vaporizing heat from the exhaust system; a molecule mixture box having a box wall and being in fluid communication with said vapor collecting chamber for receiving vaporized fuel from said vapor collecting chamber; a pressurizing air/water pump in fluid communication with the molecule mixture box; an air intake structure in fluid communication with said air/water pump for delivering air through said air/water pump into said molecule mixture box; a water source in fluid communication with said air/water pump for delivering water through said air/water pump into said molecule mixture box; and an air/water aerating means positioned to receive aerate and mix the air water exiting said air/water pump as the air and water enter said molecule mixture box; additionally comprising fuel blowing means mounted within said vapor collecting chamber for pushing and uniformly distributing fuel vapor; and wherein said fuel blowing means comprises a turbine blade rotatably mounted within said vapor collecting chamber and a turbine blade drive shaft onto which said turbine blade is mounted extending through and sealingly abutting a port in said vapor collecting chamber to a turbine drive motor located outside said vapor collecting chamber and drivably connected to said turbine blade drive shaft.
