Abstract: A fuel vaporizer carburetor provides a continuous mixture of vaporized fuel and combustion air for operation of an internal combustion engine to meet the requirements of a wide range of engine operating conditions. Fuel vapor and combustion air undergo turbulent intermixing in an elongated mixing chamber. The mixing chamber is enclosed by a tubular wick of fiber mesh material which is saturated with fuel vapors and fuel condensate. The fuel vapors are generated by heating fuel in a float bowl which underlies the wick. Combustion air is admitted through a plurality of angularly spaced openings and is conducted through the porous flow passage provided by the tubular wick prior to entry into the mixing chamber. This arrangement produces a cyclonic, whirling movement which promotes intermixing of the combustion air and fuel vapors. Turbulence is induced at an intermediate point in the mixing chamber by a tapered sidewall housing section.
