Title:
MAGNETIC FLUID CONDITIONER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1993/009868
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A magnetic conditioner is arranged with three groups of magnets (12, 14, 16) surrounding a central axis (24) of a conduit (10). The groups of magnets (12, 14, 16) include like magnetic poles facing the conduit (10) for concentrating magnetic energy within the conduit. The magnetic poles are also arranged in a helical pattern along the length of the conduit (10) to expose fluid flowing through the conduit to a more uniform amount of magnetic field energy. The magnetic conditioner is also assembled as a part of an emission control system that includes a coalescing filter (124) and a positive crankcase ventilation valve (126).
