Note that this is NOT in [TECH]. Ah well 10% fuel economy gain using static permanent magnets. http://www.magnatechfuel.com/?gclid=3DCNXg9baEuqkCFRpVgwodHELv9Q Unlike some they have "real" scientific studies, proper reviews, suspected mechanisms of operation discussed. And much more. Walker. Alas. Their first claim below (120 C rose) would be very very very easy to test double bind, single blind or even unblinded would be fine if YOU were ding it and knew there was no fraud. AND their method should be testable by anyone competent who looks at their claims without using their gear. So, how is this claim not rejected utterly OR why is the world not using the system everywhere?. While the scientific papers do provide some mechanisms for stuff to happen, the inescapeable conclusion is that these systems are fueled on snale oil with a very high level of probability. .. Case studies - it must work, then http://www.magnatech.org.uk/applications.html ____ Magnatech Fuel Conditioning units have the following results: **** A rise in flame temperature of 120C+ for the same amount of fuel. **** This means that the heat exchange plate in a boiler reaches target temperature sooner. Less fuel is burnt to reach the target temperature. The burner=92s =91burning time=92 is reduced The heat exchange plate is slightly hotter so the circulating water is hott= er. Returning water can be warmer, needing less heat to achieve target temperat= ure. There is much less waste hydrocarbon in emissions. More of the fuel is burn= t ________________________________ What is fuel conditioning? Fuel conditioning is an emerging technology based on the discovery that hig= h powered magnets placed in a particular pattern on fuel feed lines cause the fuel to burn at a higher temperature and more efficiently. This is reported by Professor Wakayama in his paper "Magnetic promotion of combustion in diffusion flames" published in 1996 by Elsevier. He believed that this was due to paramagnetic oxygen. Others have put forward theories linked to nanoparticles being influenced (Professor Kendal, Birmingham University). The jury is still out on what actually is taking place but the results are beyond doubt. Flame temperature increases for the same amount of fuel, less fuel is burnt to achieve target temperature. For commercial applications we recommend a site survey to establish the mos= t efficient pattern and type of Magnatech unit to use. Most domestic installations can be carried out simply, quickly and without special tools by the homeowner.

(Hookey) =09 Magnatech - the fuel conditioning experts Based in Northamptonshire, UK, Magnatech is a specialist in fuel conditioning. For fuel conditioning, we have developed our own design and configuration of magnetic fields, drawing on many years of experience on installations all over the world. Many companies have run extensive trials to determine the extent to which Magnatech Units will reduce fuel consumption. They include Pfizers, Eli Lilly, Heinz, the Royal Navy and the MOD. Our clients come from food processing, manufacturing industry, light manufacturing through to heavy industry, refineries to offices and warehouses, hotels to stately homes. From massive commercial boilers to a single domestic heater in a house and from Army barracks to Royal Navy Fleet Headquarters. Fuel consumption reductions between 6% and 11% are typical, providing significant cost savings and reduction in carbon emissions. We are able to condition any type of hydrocarbon fuel, with the degree of effectiveness governed by the layout of the fuel feed line. We are happy to carry out surveys and trials if required. Why choose Magnatech? 10 years experience. We know where, what and how to install units to achieve a good result. Magnets designed and made by Magnatech, mostly in the UK. We have 12 different units. 100% money back guarantee. We guarantee that the client will be satisfied with the results. Only 3 refunds have been requested in 10 years. Tested and verified by the EU Tritech Scheme Magnatech offers the only technology of this type to be verified by the EU Tritech Scheme. The EU environmental programme LIFE+ funded a project to look at emerging technologies in the fields of Water, Soil and Energy hence the TRI tech. Magnatech were invited to take part and have our technology examined in great detail and our claim of at least a 6% reduction in fuel consumption in hydrocarbon burning boilers verified. After months of analysis, visits, interviews and trials by Mouchel it was agreed that our technology did indeed reduce fuel consumption by at least 6% and most found much more. Magnatech is one of just 17 companies in Europe who now hold the ETV certification, this format of validation of emerging technologies is being presented to the EU for roll out in the near future. ______________________ Possibly related The effect of an external magnetic field on natural convection in an inclined rectangular enclosure http://pic.sagepub.com/content/221/12/1609.refs The effect of an external magnetic field on natural convection in an inclined rectangular enclosure 15 pge PDF free http://pic.sagepub.com/content/221/12/1609.full.pdf+html Effects of Magnetic Field on Swirling Flame 6 page pdf http://www.modlab.lv/publications/mmp2010/pdfs/145-150.pdf "Magnetic field .. 2 phase enclosed thermosyphon" http://profdoc.um.ac.ir/articles/a/1012792.pdf ______________ Walker Hookey Hookey Walker http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-wal1.htm --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
