Pulse plugs may look similar to spark plugs on the outside, but inside the technological advances of Pulstar are evident. Pulse plugs feature a unique capacitor-based circuit that captures energy normally wasted by spark plugs and generates a spark with 20,000 times greater energy than any spark plug.  |
It’s called a pulse plug – and here’s why its technology should be in your engine. Until now, every gallon of gas you bought was ignited by a simple spark plug- an outdated technology that has barely changed in 100 years. But now you can change to a new eco-friendly pulse plug that uses an advanced technology to make every drop of gas burn better and cleaner. Here’s how it works: Electrical energy from the engine’s ignition coil is stored in the built-in capacitor. At the exact moment needed, that energy is released in an amazingly powerful and quick (two nanosecond) high-energy pulse. The result: The improved combustion efficiency burns fuel sooner and more effectively, which equals improved mpg, less CO2 based emissions, and better overall drivability. Even the green get greener! For example, in this EPA US06 fuel consumption lab test, even the icon of fuel economy and eco-friendliness- the Toyota Prius- saw notable improvements in mpg. This new technology is based on plasma research supported by the world famous Sandia National Laboratories – and yes, that’s definitely rocket science. |
The Pulstar® Difference
Unlike conventional spark plugs that dissipate and waste energy, Pulstar® Pulse Plugs have a patented capacitor in the core that stores energy from the ignition coil. Immediately before the spark, Pulstar® with PlasmaCore Plugs release this energy in a quick and powerful burst, producing more than 5,000,000 watts of peak power which forms an energy-dense and ion-rich plasma field.
The plasma field sensitizes the fuel mixture allowing it to burn more quickly and completely once the spark is formed, creating consistent cycle-to-cycle combustion pressure resulting in a quicker throttle response and higher average horsepower and torque.
Pulstar® with PlasmaCore Plugs have three components that allow them to burn more of the air-fuel mixture:
The Pulstar® Core Capacitor
The Pulstar® Plasma-forming Pulse
The Pulstar® Electrode
Testing
How can horsepower, torque, and MPG be improved while reducing emissions? By burning more of the air-fuel mixture during the time allotted by the power stroke.
The ability of Pulstar® with PlasmaCore pulse plugs to sensitize the air-fuel mixture prior to the spark ensures immediate ignition followed by combustion upon spark creation and an overall faster burn rate. Testing conducted at two well-known independent third-party labs prove that Pulstar pulse plugs burn the fuel mixture at a significantly accelerated rate when compared to the premium iridium fine-wire plugs of the world’s top two leading spark plug manufacturers.
The spark, whether from a pulse plug or spark plug, can only impact the first 2-5% of the combustion process. This is called the 5% Mass Fractional Burn (MFB). In independent third-party testing, Pulstar with PlasmaCore pulse plug’s 5% MFB was measured against the leading brand’s premium iridium spark plug in a quiescent cylinder. The flame kernel area growth measured by pixels shows the flame growth at 500 microseconds (0.5 milliseconds) for the Pulstar with PlasmaCore pulse plug at 200 pixels while the premium iridium spark plug is only about 50 pixels. At 2,750 microseconds (2.75 milliseconds), the Pulstar flame kernel comprises 600 pixels compared to the iridium spark plugs 90. At 0.5 milliseconds the Pulstar with PlasmaCore pulse plug’s flame kernel is 4 times the size of the leading brand’s premium iridium spark plug; and its burn rate is accelerated, increasing to 6.7 times larger at 2.75 milliseconds.
These results not only reflect the pulse plug’s capacity to burn more of the fuel quickly; they also show its ability to ignite a lean 18:1 air-fuel mixture and burn it at an accelerated rate – improving MPG.
Additional tests conducted at the same independent third-party lab compares the flame propagation rate of the Pulstar with PlasmaCore pulse plug to a different leading brand’s premium iridium spark plug. Again, the flame propagation rate of the Pulstar pulse plug is significantly faster at 63%. The below pictures show the Pulstar flame kernel is clearly larger at 13,707 microseconds (0.013 milliseconds) and 33,187 microseconds (0.033 milliseconds) than the leading brand’s premium fine-wire iridium spark plug.
