In a recent paper published in this journal by Tao et al.,1 an automotive injection technology that involves application of a strong electric field to the fuel line, which reduces the liquid fuel viscosity causing a finer fuel atomization with smaller droplets, was reported. Further, applying this technology to a diesel-engine-powered car, as well as to a laboratory test engine, the authors claimed that the fuel mileage improved by up to 20%. Unfortunately, this paper has some serious deficiencies, and certain aspects of the experimental methodologies and analysis require clarification: some of the statements are not entirely justified; description of the experiments and experi- mental protocols are not complete; and the results and conclu- sions are at odds with established knowledge. The paper gives the impression that the authors may not be familiar with physics and chemistry of combustion in general and internal combustion (IC) engine combustion technology in particular. Given the importance of the subject matter of the paper, the objective of this Comment is to point out the major deficiencies and set the record straight regarding the results and conclusions of the authors."

This is Guider critique. Check his resume and compare it with Taos then ask the question should Tao even be involved with this subject!
