ABSTRACT

A Water fuel engine (hydrogen vehicle is an alternative fuel vehicle that uses hydrogen as its onboard fuel for
motive power. Combustion of hydrogen with air is receiving increasing attention in the future energy scenario. The
term may refer to a personal transportation vehicle, such as an automobile, or any other vehicle that uses hydrogen
in a similar fashion, such as an aircraft. The power plants of such vehicles convert the chemical energy of hydrogen
to mechanical energy either by burning hydrogen in an internal combustion engine (spark ignition engine),
Widespread use of hydrogen for fueling transportation is a key element of a proposed hydrogen economy.
Hydrogen fuel does not occur naturally on Earth and thus is not an energy source, but is an energy carrier. Currently
it is most frequently made from methane or other fossil fuels. However, it can be produced from a wide range of
sources (such as wind, solar, or nuclear) that are intermittent, too diffuse or too awkward to directly propel vehicles.
Integrated wind-to-hydrogen plants, using electrolysis of water, are exploring technologies to deliver costs low
enough, and quantities great enough, to compete with traditional energy sources. In the late 1990s Canada developed
a world leading position in fuel cell and hydrogen technologies based in large part by advances in Proton Exchange
Membrane fuel cell technology by Ballard Power Systems and several smaller highly innovative firms. Global trend
is to move from fossil fuels to carbon free fuels, including renewable. Decarbonization driven by protection of

1.1 Introduction
CHAPTER-1
The fuel cell is in the transformation from chemical energy to electricity a very promising primary energy converter
for automotive propulsion due to their high efficiency and ultra-low emissions. The polymer- electrolyte-membrane
fuel cell (PEFC) - among the different types of fuel cells - is almost exclusively discussed for applications in
traction because of their rugged design and suitability for dynamic operation. Therefore, this paper deals exclusively
with PEFC technology. In comparative views with other vehicle power trains "tank to wheel" lowest CO2-
emissions for vehicles with fuel cell power trains were obtained with the PEFC-fuel cell technology. However,
extending the view to "well-to-wheel" it becomes apparent that the advantage is getting smaller or - for unfavorable
fuel supply chains - CO -emissions could be also higher. The PEFC's preferable fuel for is hydrogen. As fuel up-
to-date almost exclusively hydrogen is used, because it has been found that the realization of gas generation
systems, which convert hydrocarbons to a hydrogen rich gas on-board, is very complex. Consequently, the above
cited potential can only be assessed, if satisfying answers to the questions of hydrogen production, infrastructure
and storage are found regarding economics. Furthermore, technical progress is needed in fuel cell propulsion
technology. Main issues are: cost of the power train; lifetime of the core components, namely the fuel cell stack;
cold start ability; performance under freezing conditions; and operating range of the vehicles. Improved materials
are needed to meeting the envisaged targets. This paper gives some examples for challenges in material science
developing advanced PEFC-stacks and advanced hydrogen storages.
Many companies are working to develop technologies that might efficiently exploit the potential of
hydrogen energy for mobile users. The attraction of using hydrogen as an energy currency is that, if
hydrogen is prepared without using fossil fuel inputs, vehicle propulsion would not contribute to
carbon dioxide emissions. The drawbacks of hydrogen use are low energy content per unit volume,
high tank age weights, the storage, transportation and filling of gaseous or liquid hydrogen in
vehicles, the large investment in infrastructure that would be required to fuel vehicles and the
inefficiency of production processes. Buses, trains, PHB bicycles, canal boats, cargo bikes, golf
carts, motorcycles, wheelchairs, ships, airplanes, submarines, and rockets can already run on
hydrogen, in various forms. NASA uses hydrogen to launch Space Shuttles into space. There is
even a working toy model car that runs on solar power, using a regenerative fuel cell to store energy
in the form of hydrogen and oxygen gas. It can then convert the fuel back into water to release the
solar energy. The current land speed record for a hydrogen-powered vehicle is 286.476 mph
(461.038 km/h) set by Ohio State University’s Buckeye Bullet 2, which achieved a “flying-mile”
speed of 280.007 mph (450.628 km/h) at the Bonneville Salt Flats in August 2008. For production-
style vehicles, the current record for a hydrogen-powered vehicle is 333.38 km/h (207.2 mph) set by

a prototype Ford Fusion Hydrogen 999 Fuel Cell Race Car at Bonneville Salt Flats in Wend over,
Utah in August 2007. It was accompanied by a large compressed oxygen tank to increase power.
Honda has also created a concept called the FC Sport, which may be able to beat that record if put
into production.

3.1 HYDROGEN FUEL
Hydrogen fuel in a flame of pure hydrogen gas, burning in air, the hydrogen (H2) reacts with oxygen
(O2) to form water (H2O) and heat. It does not produce other chemical by-products, except for a small
amountof nitrogen oxides. Hence a key feature of hydrogen

Fig.3.1: Hydrogen fuel


as a fuel is that it is relatively non-polluting (since water is not a pollutant). Pure hydrogen does not
occur naturally; it takes energy to manufacture it. Once manufactured it is an energy carrier ( i.e. a store
for energy first generated by other means). The energy is eventually delivered as heat when the hydrogen
is burned. The heat in a hydrogen flame is a radiant emission from the newly formed water molecules.
The water molecules are in an excited state of initial formation and then transition to a ground state,
the transition unleashing thermal radiation. When burning in air, the temperature is roughly 2000°C.
Hydrogen fuel can provide motive power for cars, boats and aeroplanes, portable fuel cell applications or
stationary fuel cell applications, which can power an electric motor. The current leading technology for
producing hydrogen in large quantities is steam reforming of methane gas (CH4). Other methods are
discussed in the Hydrogen Production article. Primarily because hydrogen fuel can be environmentally
friendly, there are advocates for its more widespread use. At present, however, there is not a sufficient
technical and economic infrastructure to support widespread use. The proposed creation of such an
infrastructure is referred to as the hydrogeneconomy.
Hydrogen can also serve as fuel for internal combustion engines. However, unlike FCEVs, these produce tailpipe
emissions and are less efficient. Learn more about fuel cells.
The energy in 2.2 pounds (1 kilogram) of hydrogen gas is about the same as the energy in 1 gallon (6.2 pounds, 2.8
kilograms) of gasoline. Because hydrogen has a low volumetric energy density, it is stored onboard a vehicle as a
compressed gas to achieve the driving range of conventional vehicles. Most current applications use high-pressure
tanks capable of storing hydrogen at either 5,000 or 10,000 pounds per square inch (psi). For example, the FCEVs
in production by automotive manufacturers and available at dealerships have 10,000 psi tanks. Retail dispensers,
which are mostly co-located at gasoline stations, can fill these tanks in about 5 minutes. Fuel cell electric buses
currently use 5,000 psi tanks that take 10–15 minutes to fill. Other ways of storing hydrogen are under
development, including bonding hydrogen chemically with a material such as metal hydride or low-temperature
sorbent materials.

4.1 ENGINE THEORY AND CHARACTERISTICS
After becoming familiar with the physical characteristics of hydrogen, the engine criteria can be focused
on. The initial goal was to design and develop a working hydrogen fueled internal combustion engine
without extraordinary modifications. This chapter will discuss basic engine theory with a description
and specifications of the engine used in this research. Before an engine is selected, designed, and built
some engine theory is important to know. Most engines used in automobiles are known as four stroke
engines. The four-stroke cycle means that each cylinder requires four strokes

4.2 PROCEDURE AND PHENOMENON INVOLVED


PHENOMENON INVOLVED:
• The phenomenon involved in the separation of hydrogen and oxygen in water is“ELECTROLYSIS OF
WATER”
• In electrolysis the anode is connected to the positive terminal of the battery andthe cathode is connected to
the negative terminal in water.
• When the current is passed the oxygen reacts with anode and the hydrogen reactswith cathode with the help of
polymer electrolyte membrane.
• Thus, the hydrogen and oxygen liberate from the water.
• The liberated hydrogen is used for combustion in the engine.

PROCEDURE:
Splitting of Water:
• At first fuel tank is placed at the top of the engine with anode and cathode connectionsof the battery into the tank.
• When the battery circuit is closed, the electricity passes into the water, thereby the splitting of oxygen and hydrogen
takes place and the hydrogen liberates from the water and the oxygen is let out.
• The liberated hydrogen is collected separately by a tube from the fuel tank. (To check whether it is hydrogen or not,
introduce the tube which carries the hydrogen gas into a container with soap water. In the soap water, there is formation of
bubbles. Keep a flame near a bubble, the fire starts to sparkle due to the hydrogen) PATH WAY OF THE FUEL

CARBURETTOR:
• The tube which carries the hydrogen is inserted into Carburettor. The carburettor mixes hydrogen with the air.
Engine, generally a four-stroke engine is an internal combustion engine that utilizes four different engine strokes,

Fig.4.1: Carburettor
(1) Intake/Suction
(2) Compression
(3) Power
(4) Exhaust
• Intake: In “intake‟ when the spark plug ignites, combustion takes place and thereby the piston starts to work
and it pumps the air and the fuel mixture (the engine starts).

• Compression: In ‘compression’ the air and fuel mixture is kept at more pressure to produce more power.
• Power: In ‘power the rotational force of the engine is transmitted to the wheel. Thus, the vehicle starts to
move. This is how the engine starts to work with water as a fuel.
• Exhaust: During the exhaust stroke, the turning crankshaft forces the piston back up the cylinder, the exhaust
valve (or valves) opens, and the piston pushes out the burnt air/fuel mixture past the exhaust valve.

4.3.1 ENGINE:

Any device which can convert heat energy of fuel into mechanical energy is known as engineor heat
engine may be classified into two types

1.External Combustion (E.C) engine2.Internal Combustion (I.C) engine

This engine is the vehicles main source of power. The engine uses fuel and burns it to produce
mechanical power. the heat produced by the combustion is used to create pressure which is then used to
drive a mechanical device.

An internal combustion engine (I.C) is a heat engine in which the combustion of a fuel occurs with
an oxidizer (usually air) in a combustion chamber that is an internal part of the working fluid flow
circuit. In an internal combustion engine, the expansion of the high temperature and high-temperature
and high-pressure gasses produced by combustion applies direct force to some component of the engine
This engine helps in the combustion of hydrogen which was passed through the carburettor.
Internal combustion engines are those heat engines that burn their fuel inside the engine cylinder. In internal

combustion engine the chemical energy stored in their operation. The heat energy is converted in to
mechanical energy by the expansion of gases against the piston attached to the crankshaft that can
rotate. The engine which gives power to propel the automobile vehicle is a petrol burning internal
combustion engine. Petrol is a liquid fuel and is called by the name gasoline in America. The ability of
petrol to furnish power rests on the two basic principles; Burning or combustions always accomplished
by the production of heat. When a gas is heated, it expands. If the volume remains constant, the pressure rises
according to Charles’s law.

Fig.4.2: I.C Engine


(1) Suction stroke: The 4-stroke engine takes its name from the fact that it takes four strokes of the
piston to complete one cycle. On the suction stroke the intake valve (or valves) opens, and as the piston goes
down in the cylinder, the air/fuel mixture is drawn into the cylinder. During this stroke the airflow meter in the fuel
injection system sends a signal to indicate how much air is coming in. Then a computer-controlled fuel injector
sprays a precise amount of fuel into the cylinder at just the right moment.
(2) Compression stroke: The intake valves close as the piston travels up the cylinder, and the piston compresses
the air/fuel mixture. The higher the compression, the more power is generated in the next stroke.
(3) Power stroke: As the piston approaches the top of the compression stroke, the spark plugs fires, igniting the
compressed air/fuel mixture. The rapidly expanding gases push the piston back down the cylinder. This is the
stroke that generates the engine’s power. The strokes in each cylinder are timed so they occur at intervals that
create a smooth-running engine and quiet performance.
(4) Exhaust stroke: During the exhaust stroke, the turning crankshaft forces the piston back up the cylinder, the
exhaust valve (or valves) opens, and the piston pushes out the burnt air/fuel mixture past the exhaust valve.

4.3.2 CONTAINER:
Container is the major component which will helps in storage of the water(H2o).
In the container both the copper and aluminum strips are inserted which are attached with bolts and
nuts horizontally one another. This relate to the cooper wires and then connected with the battery for

4.2.1 ADVANTAGES AND LIMITATIONS OF HYDROGEN ASA VEHICLE FUEL


The most compelling incentive for use ofhydrogen as a vehicle fuel is the
low pollution nature of its combustion. For fuel-air mixtures leaner than 0.65 of the stoichiometric (chemically
correct) fuel-air ratio, the combustion of hydrogen in air results in essentially no harmful emissions.
The primary exhaust product is water. For mixtures between 0.65 and 0.95 of stoichiometric, certain levels of
NOx (oxides of nitrogen) are produced as a result of the combination of nitrogen and oxygen from air at the high
combustion temperatures. Lower NOx levels are encountered with precisely stoichiometric fuel-air mixture,
although difficulties in achieving a perfectly homogeneous stoichiometric fuel-air charge prevent the use of such
mixtures without deterioration of efficiency. The unique zero-pollution nature of lean-burn hydrogen engine
operation makes hydrogen particularly attractive in vehicle applications which require the performance of an
internal combustion engine, but the zero-pollution features previously only achievable with electric vehicles. In
addition, engines operated on hydrogen are noted for their high thermal efficiency. A hydrogen fueled vehicle can
be expected to achieve higher miles per BTU ratings than equivalent vehicles operated on gasoline or diesel fuel.
Several disadvantages of hydrogen must be pointed out. Hydrogen possesses substantially different combustion
properties than most common fuels. These are summarizedin Table 1.
A hydrogen-air mixture can be ignited much more 3easily than mixtures of other common fuels with air. This is
fundamentally due to the very wide flammability limits, and the very low minimum ignition energy of hydrogen in
air. One important ramification of these properties is that special fuel handling procedures must be observed to
assure safe refueling and operation of a hydrogen vehicle. An additional ramification of hydrogen's ignitability is
the tendency of hydrogen engines to backfire in the intake manifold when conventional gaseous fuel carburetion
equipment is used for the conversion of the engine. One of the key technical tasks of this project was elimination
of this backfire problem.

These are summarized in Table 2. It was originally proposed that a metal hydride fuel storage system be used for
fuel storage on the bus. Due to budgetary limitations, this phase of the project was not funded. Therefore, the least
expensive means for on-board hydrogen storage was selected. This was compressed storage in high pressure
cylinders. This method suffers from a poor hydrogen density per system weight and per system volume. For the
bus, nine pressure cylinders are used to provide approximately one hour of operation in typical service. Details of
this system are provided later in this report

4.2.2 Fuel Injection Development

The development of a means for elimination of backfiring in hydrogen engines was a problem that required a
solution in order to achieve acceptable operational characteristics for the bus. Considerable effort was made to
better understand the reasons behind backfiring and then to implement a means for preventing backfiring and
achieving adequate engine power output levels. Although the problem of induction ignition is not unique to
hydrogen, it is certainly more pronounced with hydrogen than with other gaseous or liquid fuels. This is
fundamentally due to the exceptionally low minimum ignition energy (0.02mJ at
~=1) and the wide flammability limits (0.21 < ~ < 7.34) of a hydrogen air mixture. The equiva1ence ratio ~ is
defined as the actua1 fuel-air molar ratio divided by the stoichiometric or chemically correct ratio. Several
mechanisms by which a backfire may be initiated have been identified or suggested. The surfaces of the exhaust
valve, piston or spark plug can ignite 6a fuel-air charge if their temperatures are sufficiently high. Combustion
chamber hot spots can also be conducive to backfiring, due to their high local temperatures. This situation may be
accentuated by the very small (0.6 mm for 0=1) surface quenching distance of the hydrogen-air mixture. The
catalytic effects of some materials contacted by the fuel-air charge in the combustion chamber have also been
identified as mechanisms by which ignition can occur at decreased temperatures. The presence of deposits caused
by the pyrolysis of lubricating oil have been shown to cause ignition, even while average surface temperatures are
acceptably low. The temperatures of small particles attached to combustion chamber surfaces or suspended in
residual exhaust gas at the end of the exhaust stroke can be significantly higher than the average surface
temperatures, due to the small thermal mass and poor heat transfer of these particles. At the beginning of the intake
stroke, these particles may be of sufficient temperature to serve as ignition sites for the incoming fuel-air charge.
They suggest that as the incoming hydrogen-air mixture is combined with unavenged residua 1 exhaust gases, its
temperature increases and its composition is diluted; but the temperature of the first introduced hydrogen-air
mixture increases more rapidly than the mixing process can dilute the composition below its flammability point.
As a result, ignition of the intake charge may occur. Thishypothesis might be extended to account for the
situation in which valve overlap allows the backflow of exhaust products into the intake manifold, which occurs
especially under high load, low RPM conditions. Ignition of the intake fuel-air charge has also been attributed to
undesired firing of the spark plug due to electromagnetic cross-induction between spark plug leads, or individual
ignition coils if used.
In the previous work of this investigator and others at UCLA, several geometries of electronically controlled
hydrogen fuel injection were evaluated as possible means for avoiding the backfire problem.
The essential features of both direct and port injection systems are that:
1) no combustible fuel-air charge is present in the intake manifold, and
2) fuel delivery may be delayed somewhat after the intake of air has begun. The delayed fuel delivery
feature allows for quench cooling of residual exhaust gases and potential ignition sites having low thermal masses.
These include deposits and suspended particles from oil pyrolysis, and sufficiently small combustion chamber hot
spots. The absence of fuel in the intake manifold ensures that should induction ignition occur; it will only involve
the charge of a single cylinder rather than the entire contents of the intake manifold. The resulting backfire is better

IJCRT2305139 International Journal of Creative Research Thoughts (IJCRT) www.ijcrt.org b56

described in the same context as ignition 11 miss, 11 much 1ess consequential than the backfire of a carbureted
hydrogen engine. For the bus application, a port injection approach was selected. Th is is especially true as
equivalence ratios approaching stoichiometric are used, since complete combustion of a stoichiometric mixture
required perfectly homogeneous mixing of the fuel and air. This is extremely difficult to accomplish entirely during
the compression stroke since turbulent mixing effects from the intake stroke are largely diminished.
Other 8 limitations of direct injection are the requirement for a hydrogen supply pressure higher than might
normally be available from a metal hydride or liquid hydrogen vehicular storage system, and the need for a high
flow injection valve capable of withstanding combustion chamber temperatures and pressures. Several design
approaches to realizing timed port injection on a multi-cylinder engine were investigated. The test engine selected
for system development was a 2.6-liter, 4 cylinder, 4-cycle, Mitsubishi engine normally used in several Chrysler
automobiles and light trucks. A feature of this engine is the 11 MCA-Jet11 third valve which is normally used to
improve the combustion efficiency of a lean fuel- air mixture with substantial EGR. The cylinder head is aluminum
alloy and the engine block is cast iron. No special provisions were made to reduce lube oil entry into the
combustion chamber. In fact, the rapid accumulation of greasy carbon deposits on the spark plugs indicated that
significant oil was entering the upper cylinder, either past the piston rings or through the valve guides. Surface gap
spark plugs and a capacitive discharge ignition system were used for all tests.
The ambient air pressure during all tests was approximately 82 kPa (620 mm Hg) because of Denver’s 1610 m
(5300 ft) altitude. Fuel-air equivalence ratio datawere determined by analysis of exhaust oxygen content. The
initial injectionconfiguration tested involved the timed injection of fuel through the third valvesunder electronic
control. A single electronic fuel injector of the type previouslydescribed was used to supply all four cylinders
by manifolding of all third valveinlets to the common fuel injector.
In this manner, the third valves acted as selector valves since only one of these valves is open at any time. A fuel
metering device as described in Figure 1 was constructed as a means of mechanically metering hydrogen mass flow
to be proportion a 1 to intake air mass flow. This metering unit incorporates the throttle body and vacuum
controlled slide of a standard SU carburetor. The position of the slide follows air mass flowrate in a non-linear, but
one-to one relationship.
A tapered pin coupled to the slide is used to meter hydrogen flow in the lower hydrogen metering valve assembly.
A differential pressure across the metering valve orifice of 221 kPa (32 psi) or greater is maintained in order to
ensure sonic flow conditions in the orifice, which makes FL orate in the va1ve independent of the downstream
intake manifold pressure.
By selectively cutting an appropriate (experimentally determined) taper on the metering pin, a relationship between
hydrogen and air flow rate is established which can be either held constant, or varied with air flow. In our engine
tests using this metering unit, a constant fuel-air ratio was maintained over the entire range, except at low flowrates
and idle condition where a leaner fuel-air ratio was used. This metering unit was emp 1oyed to supply hydrogen to
the third va 1ve manifold. This configuration allows the separate delivery of fuel, but since the third valve
opens simultaneously with the main intake valve, independent timing of fuel delivery was not possible. Tests of
the engine using this setup provided similar results to those obtained for electronic injection timing at TDC.

engine speeds above 2500 RPM. A means by which hydrogen flow from the fuel metering unit may be timed was
devised using a rotary valve as depicted in Figure 2. Hydrogen enters the 10rotary valve through the central inlet
port, and is distributed to the appropriate cylinder by the rotation of the valve shaft, which is driven through a 2 to
1 reduction timing belt drive from the crankshaft. The total duration that each of the out1ets is open is 163 degrees
of crankshaft rotation, although the majority of flow occurs within the central 81° of this period
Timing of fuel delivery is adjusted by rotation of the valve assembly in its mounting bracket. Hydrogen flows from
each of the out1et ports to nozzles located just upstream of each intake valve in the intake ports. Tests were
conducted using the metering unit - rotary valve combination. With the injection period located between 15°ATDC
and 178°ATDC, backfiring was not observed at any speed or load setting.
It was observed that with cool ant temperatures higher than 71 °C (160°F), specifically 82°C (180°F), backfiring
would occur after approximately 30 seconds of continuous operation at the maximum power condition. Conversely,
even with coolant temperatures as low as 54°C (130°F), backfiring would occur immediately during full throttle
runs if the injection initiation position was advanced to prior to TDC or retarded to later than 60°ATDC. For
injection timing later than approximately 60°ATDC, injection flow continues after the point of closure of the intake
valve leaving some hydrogen entrained just upstream of the intake valve, which 11is inducted at the beginning of
the next intake stroke. Only with decreased coolant temperatures and injection initiation between 10° and
20°ATDC was backfiring eliminated under all conditions. The results of full-throttle variable RPM tests of this
configuration are shown in the lower data of Figure 4. For these runs, a fixed ignition timing position of 19°BTDC
was used. No backfiring was observed during these tests. To investigate improved power output of the engine, a
turbocharger and charge air cooler were fitted. The turbocharger was an IHI RHOS unit with internal
adjustable wastegate. This would normally be considered too small a turbocharger for this engine displacement if
the engine were operated on gasoline, but was selected because the lower exhaust heat content of a 1ean operated
hydrogen engine dictates the use of a sma11er turbine in the turbocharger. Engine tests showed that positive boost
pressure was available at 2000 RPM with full 10 psi boost available at 2500 RPM (limit set by the wastegate).
However, the compressor efficiency drops off rapidly for engine speeds greater than 3500 RPM such that only 4
psi boost is available at 4000 RPM. A somewhat larger turbocharger would be optimum for this engine. A
different metering pin was used in the fuel metering unit, and the hydrogen supply pressure was increased to 414
kPa (60 psi) to provide a richer fuel-air ratio of 0 = 0.7±.05. The liquid-to-air charge air cooler maintained the
intake air temperature between 60 and 80°C (140 and 176°F) during these runs.
The resulting timing curve was timing at TDC for 1500 RPM and less, linearly increasing to 12°BTDC at 3000
RPM, and constant at 12° above 3000 RPM. 12Full-throttle, variable RPM test results of the turbocharged, injected
engine are shown in the upper data of Figure 4. The roll-off in power above 3500 RPM shown in Figure 4 was due
to the decrease in turbocharge boost above this speed. As before, the engine coolant temperature was limited to
71°C (160°F).
Each data point represents a 120 second continuous run at full throttle. No backfiring was observed during these
tests. It was observed that if the ignition timing was abnormally advanced to the point of audible knock, backfiring
would result within approximately 15 seconds of operation at the 3500 RPM maximum power point. This is
presumed to be due to excessive average temperatures of combustion chamber surfaces induced by the knock

condition. From the data and observations of these tests, certain conclusions were drawn. Induction ignition can be
caused by excessive temperatures of large thermal mass combustion chamber surfaces such as the cylinder walls,
valves, piston or spark plug, or by low thermal mass sites with cyclically varying temperatures such as surface
deposits, suspended pyrolysis products or hot residua 1 exhaust gases. Avoidance of induction ignition required
both the maintenance of acceptably low average temperatures of the large thermal mass surfaces, and the provision
for convective cooling of the small thermal mass sites prior to the delivery of fuel to the cylinder.

Improved cooling of the cylinder head, piston and valves, and the use of very cold spark plugs is indicated to
achieve the 1ower average temperatures. Timed fue1 injection provides a means of de 1ayed fue1 de 1i very in
order to pre-coo1 the small thermal mass sites and residual exhaust gases.
The fuel injection system developed for the 2.6L. Chrysler-Mitsubishi engine was up-scaled for use on the eight-
cylinder engine of the bus. The engine supplied in the FMC bus was a Chrysler 440 in. 3 displacement V-8
industrial engine. The condition of the engine as delivered from the RTD was extremely poor, so that a complete
rebuild was required. Preliminary design effort had been directed toward the use of a Ford 351 in. 3 V-8 industrial
engine which would have replaced the diesel engine in the originally proposed Vetter’s mall transit bus. This
design work was modified to accommodate the larger Chrysler engine.
The Chrysler engine was a poor candidate for hydrogen conversion. Its wedge configuration combustion chamber
generates low turbulence, so that poor combustion efficiency and excessively high engine operation temperatures
are problems.

CHAPTER-5
5.1 METHODOLOGY
HHO gas was generated by electrolysis process and the generator integrated to the petrol engine. The
experiment was done on single cylinder 180cc SI engine at a constant speed. load was varied along with
HHO gas. HHO gas was varied by varying the current supplied to the generator.
Amperes Used were 1, 2 and 3 amperes with DC supply of 12 volts. HHO gas was supplied along with
air through intake manifold. From the results it was observed that, at full load and at 3 ampere
current total reduction in fuel consumption was about 18.87% compared with
normal petrol engine. This was due to better combustion. After hydrogen enrichment at full load and at 3
ampere, brake thermal/eminency was increased by 3.72%. Also, HC was
decrease by 28.33% at full load CO was reduced to 1.42% from 1.7% by volume at 3 amperes current
supply.
The main reason was presence of oxygen which came along with hydrogen fuel enhances complete
combustion. Oxy- Hydrogen gas is produced in common ducted electrolyze & then sent to the intake
manifold to introduce into combustion chamber of the engine. Oxy- Hydrogen gases will combust in the
combustion chamber when brought to its auto-ignition or self-ignition temperature. The minimum
energy required to ignite such a mixture with a spark is about 20 micro joules. At normal temperature and

pressure-Hydrogen gas can burn when it is between about 4% and 94% hydrogen by volume. When
ignited, the gas mixture converts to water vapor and releases energy.
The amount of heat released in independent of the mode of combustion, but the temperature of the
flame varies.
The maximum temperature of about 2800oC is achieved with a pure stoichiometric mixture, about
700oC hotter than hydrogen flame in air. Oxy-hydrogen gas has very diffusivity. This ability to disperse
in air is considerably greater than gasoline and it is advantageous in mainly two reasons. Firstly, it
facilitates the formation of homogeneous air fuel mixture and secondly if any leak occurs it can
disperse at rapid rate. Oxyhydrogen gas is very low in density.
The engine selected for the experiment was duel twin spark plug, c80cc with specifications of
carburetor type Pulsar 1 bore and stroke as63.5x56.4 having Amax. power of 17.02HP @ 8500 rpm
and max. torque of 14.22 Nm @ 6500 rpm.HHO
Generator: - Component requirements for the Generator are Hydrogen cell, connection pipes, Cold
rated spark plug, Bubbler, Water tank, KOH, Battery (12 V, 32 A). A typical dry cell generator is shown.
As shown each plate in the generator comes with a gasket to prevent leakage of water. Hear, electrolyte
was stored in a tank connected to the generator. The HHO gas generated here is served back into the
same tank. In this process the electrolyte circulates through thesystem due to its gravity.

5.2 EXTRACT ENERGY FROM WATER:

Energy was extracted with the help of electrolysis process which was in existence. A DC electrical power
source is connected to two electrodes, or two plates (typically made from an inert metal such as platinum or iridium)
that are placed in the water. Hydrogen appears at the cathode (where electrons enter the water), and oxygen at
the anode. Assuming ideal faradaic efficiency, the amount of hydrogen generated is twice the amount of
oxygen, and both are proportional to the total electrical charge conducted by the solution. However, in many cells
competing side reactions occur, resulting in additional products and less than ideal faradaic efficiency.
Electrolysis of pure water requires excess energy in the form of overpotential to overcome various
activation barriers. Without the excess energy, electrolysis occurs slowly or not at all. This is in part due to the
limited self-ionization of water. Pure water has an electrical conductivity about one-millionth that of seawater.
Many electrolytic cells lack requisite electrocatalysts. Efficiency is increased through the addition of an electrolyte
(such as a salt, an acid or a base) and electrocatalysts.

Required equations
Cathode(reduction): 2 H2O(l) + 2e− → H2(g) + 2 OH−(aq)
Anode (oxidation): 2 OH−(aq) → 1/2 O2(g) + H2O(l) + 2 e−

This electrolysis process is done with the help of two types of water they are:

Pure water
Electrolyte-free pure water electrolysis has been achieved via deep-sub- Debye-length nanogap
electrochemical cells. When the gap between cathode and anode are smaller than Debye-length (1 micron in
pure water, around 220 nm in distilled water), the double layer regions from two electrodes can overlap,
leading to a uniformly high electric field distributed across the entire gap. Such a high electric field can
significantly enhance ion transport (mainly
due to migration), further enhancing self-ionization, continuing the reaction
and showing little resistance between the two electrodes. In this case, the two half-reactions are coupled and
limited by electron-transfer steps (the electrolysis current is saturated at shorter electrode distances).
Sea water

Ambient seawater presents challenges because of the presence of salt and other impurities. Approaches may or may
not involve desalination before electrolysis. Traditional electrolysis produces toxic and corrosive chlorine ions
and ClO−

Multiple methods have been advanced for electrolyzing unprocessed seawater. Typical proton exchange membrane
(PEM) electrolysis requiredesalination.

5.3 CLAIMS ON WATER FUEL ENGINE:


5.3.1 Garret electrolyte process
Charles H. Garrett allegedly demonstrated a water-fueled car "for several minutes", which was
reported on September 8, 1935, in The News. The car generated hydrogen by electrolysis as can be seen
by examining Garrett's patent, issued that same year.[This patent includes drawings which show
carburetor similar to an ordinary float-type carburetor but with electrolysis plates in the lower
portion, and where the float is used to maintain the level of the water. Garrett's patent fails to identify
a new source

5.3.2 Stanley Meyer's water fuel cell:-


Stanley Meyer's water fuel cell At least as far back as 1980, Stanley Meyer claimed that he had built a
dune buggy that ran on water, although he gave inconsistent explanations as to its mode of operation.
In some cases, he claimed that he had replaced the spark plugs with a "water splitter", while in other
cases it was claimed to rely on a "fuel cell" that split the water resonance, would split the water mist into
hydrogen and oxygen gas, which would then be combusted back into water vapor in a conventional
internal combustion engine to produce net energy. Meyer's claims were never independently
verified, and in an Ohio court in 1996 he was found guilty of "gross and egregious fraud". He died of
ananeurysm in 1998, although conspiracy theories claim that hewas poisoned

5.3.3 Dennis Klein: -


In 2002, the firm Hydrogen Technology Applications patented aselectrolyze design and
trademarked the term "Aquagenic" to refer to the hydrogen oxygen gas mixture produced by
the device. Originallydeveloped as an alternative to oxyacetylene welding, the company
claimed to be able to run a vehicle exclusively on water, via theproduction of "Aquagenic", and
invoked an unproven state of matter called "magnegas" and a discredited theory about magnecules to
explaintheir results. Company founder Dennis Klein claimed to be innegotiations
with a major
US auto manufacturer and that the US government wanted to produce Hummers that used his
technology. At present, the company no longer claims it can run a car exclusively on water, and is
instead marketing "Aquagenic" production as a technique to increase fuel eminency, thus making it
Hydrogen fuel enhancement rather than a water fuel car.

5.3.4 Genesis World Energy (GWE): -
Also in 2002, Genesis World Energy announced a market ready device which would extract energy from
water by separating the hydrogen and oxygen and then recombining them. In 2003, the company
announced that this technologyhad been adapted to power automobiles.

The company collected over $2.5 million from investors, but none of their devices were ever brought
to market. In 2006, Patrick Kelly, the owner of Genesis World Energy was sentenced in New Jersey to
five yearsin prison for theft and ordered to pay $400,000

5.3.5 Genepax Water Energy System: -

In June 2008, Japanese company Genepax unveiled a car it claimedran on only water and air, and
many news outlets dubbed the vehicle a"water-fuel car". The company said it "cannot [reveal] the
core part ofthis invention" yet, but it disclosed that the system used an onboardenergy generator,
which it called a "membrane electrode assembly", toextract the hydrogen using a "mechanism which
is similar to the method inwhich hydrogen is produced by a reaction of metal hydride and water".
The hydrogen was then used to generate energy to run the car. This led to speculation that the metal
hydride is consumed in the process and is the ultimate source of the car's energy, making it a hydride-
fueled "hydrogen on demand" vehicle rather than water-fueled as claimed. On the company's website
the energy source is explained only with the words "Chemical reaction”. The science and technology
magazine Popular Mechanics described Genepax'sclaims as "rubbish”.

The vehicle Genepax demonstrated to the press in 2008 was a REVAi electric car, which was
manufactured in India and sold in the UK as the G- Wiz. [citation needed] In early 2009, Genepax
announced they were closing their website, citing large development cost

5.3.6 Thushara Priyamal Edirisinghe: -
Also in 2008, Sri Lankan news sources reported that Thushara Priyamal Edirisinghe claimed to drive a
water-fueled car about 300 km (190 miles). On 3 liters (5.3 imperial pints) of water. Like other alleged
water-fueled cars described above, energy for the car was supposedly produced by splitting water into
hydrogen and oxygen using electrolysis, and then burning the gases in the engine.
Thushara showed the technology to Prime Minister Ratnasiri Wickramanayake, who "extended the
Government’s full support to his efforts to introduce the water-powered car to the Sri Lankan market".
Thushara was arrested a few months later on suspicion of investment fraud

5.3.7 DANIEL DINGLE WATER FUEL: -
Daniel Dingle, A Filipino inventor, has been claiming since 1969 to have developed technology allowing
water to be used as fuel. In 2000, Dingle entered into a business partnership with Formosa Plastics
Group to further develop the technology. In 2008, Formosa Plastics successfully sued Dingle for fraud
and Dingle, who was 82, was sentenced to 20 years' imprisonment.

5.3.8 Ghulam Sarwar: -
In December 2011, Ghulam Sarwar claimed he had invented a car that ran only on water. At the time
the invented car was claimed to use 60% water and 40% Diesel or fuel, but that the inventor was
working to make it run on only water, probably by end of June 2012. It was further claimed the car
"emits only oxygen rather than the usual carbon".

5.3.9 Agha Waqar Ahmad: -
Pakistani man Agha Waqar Ahmad claimed in July 2012 to have invented a water-fueled car by
installing a "water kit" for all kind of automobiles, which consists of a cylindrical jar that holds the
water, a bubbler, and a pipe leading to the engine. He claimed the kit used electrolysis to convert water
into "HHO", which is then used as fuel. The kit required use of distilled water to work.
Ahmed claimed he has been able to generate more oxyhydrogen than any other inventor because of
"undisclosed calculations". He applied for a patent in Paki. Some stan.[Pakistani scientists said Agha's
invention wasa fraud that violates the laws ofthermodynamics.
