You
can probably remember playing with magnets and figuring out like
charges (positive to positive, or negative to negative) repelled each
other while the opposite charges were attracted to each other --
"opposites attract." The Vortex Fuel Saver system utilizes this simple concept in a very elegant design to increase fuel mileage.
Fuel
molecules naturally have a self affinity for one another causing them
to group together, resembling a cluster of grapes. When a like charge
is added to the fuel (any hydrogen based fuel) it causes the molecules
to repel each other -- separating them from the cluster into individual
molecules. If a "grape cluster" of fuel molecules enters the
combustion chamber, the "grapes" on the outside get burned while the
ones on the inside may only get partially burned. Additionally,
Vortex adds magnets to the air line of the opposite charge, thus the
fuel and air are attracted to one another to create the ideal air/fuel
ratio.
Incomplete combustion doesn't allow the maximum amount of benefit from the fuel. More
complete combustion results in additional energy. If your driving
habits stay the same, this extra energy is reflected in increased miles
per gallon. Alternatively, the extra energy could be consumed by an
increase in horsepower if calling upon the vehicle to drive
faster/carry an additional load. Typically, the extra energy results
primarily in increased fuel mileage, however, some of the extra energy
will result in increased horsepower. You will definitely notice that
your vehicle has some extra peppiness, and most people notice a
smoother ride.
Undesirable emissions from your vehicle can be simply stated as unburned fuel -- more complete combustion decreases pollution. In
a typical automobile engine, not all of the fuel is combusted in the
engine. The unburned fuel is emitted into the air as harmful emissions. This
incomplete combustion wastes fuel and contributes to air pollution.
The “perfect storm” of high, and rising, fuel prices, “peak
oil” and environmental damage due to the combustion of fossil fuels has created
an increasing demand for higher efficiency internal combustion engines for motor
vehicles. A higher efficiency engine would require less fuel to operate
because it would obtain increased energy conversion efficiency from an
identical amount of fuel used by a low efficiency engine. Consequently, less
unburned fuel enters the atmosphere. The level of environmental
pollution in the form of photochemical smog is consequently reduced since
such smog is caused by ultraviolet radiation of unburned hydrocarbons in the atmosphere.
It is advantageous for motor vehicle
owners to simply secure an inexpensive device to various lines of their
automobile engines which improves the fuel efficiency of the engine
without voiding the warranty.
