It's an old idea that does increase efficiency because the water vapour has a much greater volume than the liquid water. It has been tried but usually deemed not worth the trouble, imv this is because it has never been applied in the best possible manner.
The next time I'm rich, I'll build a completely re-designed engine and revolutionize the motor industry.
