Fuel spray after viscosity reduction by the Thermal-Charger System. Reducing viscosity improves fuel atomization and promotes more complete combustion. Effects of fuel temperature on spray configuration at 3ms after injection. Flame pattern and color confirm the combustion improvement. By heating the fuel to reduce viscosity, the size of fuel droplets is greatly reduced allowing more surface area to be exposed to combustion air.
Combustion is more complete, improving fuel efficiency and reducing harmful emissions.
Frederickson Tank Lines operates 40 fuel tankers performing contract maintenance for other fleets, as well as their own trucks.
