That's why I stated that I would not be adverse to a "chemically induced" increase in conductivity. As long as the chemical does not detract from the combustibility of the fuel. Hmmm, how about if I ionize the air (or gas) prior to mixture? Is that something that could be done relatively...
OK, let's try a little "applied physics".
First, I like to race. Now that the season is over, it's time to use
the cold winter to find more horsepower. While browsing through my
large stack of science, engineering and physics books, I stopped with
a copy of Schaum's Outlines, "Fluid...
