Abstract

The article presents the results of engine and laboratory tests with fuel before and after treatment with a heavy particle generator. The results of the research have shown that in the course of the conducted research the impact of the heavy particle generator on fuel during engine tests leads to an increase in its detonation resistance and a reduction in fuel consumption (up to 15%), as well as significantly improves the environmental performance of the engine. The reduction in the concentration of carbon monoxide CO - from 0.09% to 0.03%, carbon dioxide - by 6% and nitrogen oxides - by 7%. The results of research of hydrocarbon composition of fuels by GC-MS method have shown that the impact of heavy particles generator have a favorable effect on the octane number of gasoline, as well as low-temperature properties of diesel fuel. The change of engine operation parameters after the impact of heavy particles generator is established. The change can occur as a result of complex influence on fuel and engine systems, and as a result of influence on a single factor, which is the root cause of the subsequent change of parameters.
