Abstract
A device and method for reconditioning oil or vaporizing volatile fluids from oil of internal combustion engines in order to extend the oil service life is disclosed and described. Such an oil reconditioning device (10) can include a housing (14) which defines an enclosed open chamber (12) that can receive heated engine oil. A spray nozzle (16), a vapor outlet (18), and a reconditioned oil outlet (20) may be coupled to the housing (14). In addition, the disclosed oil reconditioning device may be free of direct heating or supplemental heating sources other than the intrinsic heat of the heated engine oil as it enters the open chamber (12). The oil reconditioning devices (10) can spray engine oil into the open chamber (12) to increase the surface area of the engine oil. The increase in surface area and design of the reconditioning device can increase the vaporization rate of volatile fluids to form a reconditioned oil. The reconditioned oil has a significant reduction in water and fuel content thus allowing for increased service intervals and increased useful oil life.
