An effect of abrupt current disruption (1110.0483v2)

Abstract: Every engine, let it internal combustion engine in car or turbine of airplane, needs a high quality fuel igniter. During last decades there have been some minor changes made in ignition systems, like invention of Capacitive Discharge Ignition, Multiple Discharge Ignition, Ignition with Direct Current Discharge, but all based on the same priciple of High Voltage spark path creation. This work contains description, schematics and photographs of a new spark creation approach, providing high robustness through high power, big volume, long duration plasma. The system uses less or the same amount of energy as would CDI ignition, jet providing many times more efficient energy output. The solution is a highly applicable innovation, being able to significantly improve spark robustnes in all current HV spark ignition systems. Despite a simplicity of setup, it is still unclear why the effect persists, thus calling for additional research input.
