After reading the journal reference, a few questions:

(1)”However, the main function of our device is to reduce the viscosity of the fuel as it passes the electric field.”

Simple heating will do that. Viscosity specifies measurement at a certain temp. Hot oil is less viscous than cold oil.
Which leads to:

(2) No word of temperature measurements. Some formulas, but one of the most important factors in viscosity is temp. and not a word unless I missed it.

(3) “Because our technology, developed on the new physics principle, consumes very small power and improves fuel efficiency significantly, we expect it will have wide applications on all types of internal combustion engines, present ones and future ones.”

What “new physics principle”? Reducing viscosity of the incoming fuel charge? That can be accomplished by preheating the fuel or the fuel/ air mixture as did the VW “Beetle” did over 50 years ago. Their air cooled engine used exhaust heat to heat the incoming fuel/air mixture thus eliminating the engine warm-up period.

The diagrams show a positively charged wire mesh and a negatively charged wire mesh in line with fuel flowing between the two. That appears to be nothing more than a
fuel heater, which may explain the lack of information on temperatures of fuel going into the device and temperatures of fuel coming out of the device.

Who is paying for the research and who will own the patents obtained?

Lastly, did any of the researchers have a financial interest
in the out come of the research or the company, if any, that paid for the research?

These important questions, left unanswered as they are, tell me this “research” is nothing more than a new twist on an old J.C. Whitney add-on.

After looking at the company, Save the World Air, Inc. this whole thing looks like a penny stock company trying to boost
it’s price.

I give it a HUGE Bronx cheer.
