Patents by Inventor Miroslaw Weclas

Miroslaw Weclas has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 6932594
    Abstract: A method and device for low-emission, noncatalytic combustion of a liquid fuel. The method includes separately introducing the liquid fuel in a non-ignitable state into a mixing zone, vaporizing the liquid fuel in the mixing zone, separately introducing a gaseous oxidizing agent into the mixing zone, and mixing the fuel and the gaseous oxidizing agent in the mixing zone to create ignitable mixture. The mixing zone is formed so that combustion is not possible even when the ignition temperature of the mixture is reached within the mixing zone. Combustion of the mixture occurs in a combustion zone located down current from the mixing zone.

  • Patent number: 6257868
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the combustion of liquid fuel (F), especially oil. Wherein the liquid fuel (F) is distributed by means of a distribution device (1) and directed to a downstream reactor with porous means (6) having a communicating pore volume, whose Pecler number allows for flame expansion and full combustion of the liquid fuel (F) inside the porous means (6).

  • Patent number: 6125815
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for converting heat into work, a gaseous fuel being compressed and subsequently burnt and a drive means 2 being moved due to volumetric expansion generated as a result of combustion. In order to allow low-pollutant combustion, there is provision, according to the invention, for the compressed gaseous fuel to be burnt in a porous body 8.
