Design, Development & Testing of Hydroxyl (HHO) Gas Generator by using Dry Cell

Brown's Gas (HHO) has been introduced to the auto industry as a new source of energy. The motive of this project is to design and construct a simple HHO generation system and test it on suitable IC engine by introducing it with the conventional fuel. The effect of hydroxyl gas (HHO) addition into gasoline fuel will be evaluated on engine performance and emissions. The HHO cell should be designed, constructed and optimised for maximum productivity of the cell in producing HHO gas per input power. Literature studies show that the parameters on which the productivity of the cell depends are number of neutral plates, distance between them and type and quantity of solutes that is Potassium Hydroxide (KOH). The results are estimated as increment in power, reduction in fuel consumption, reduction in CO, reduction in HC and reduction in NOx. The addition of HHO gas into gasoline is an effective way of improving the engine performance and maintaining the exhaust emissions to an environment friendly limit compared to neat gasoline operations.

Production of Brown’s Gas using Hydroxy Generator

This paper deals with the designing of hydroxyl (HHO) generator and thus use the Brown’s Gas liberated from it as a supplement to increase fuel efficiency in IC engines. The combustion process in IC engines is very primitive and hence unburnt fuel remains after the combustion process. This is a very challenging problem being faced by today’s automobile industry as this unburnt mixture is a serious air pollutant. The proposed approach is based on an ordinary HHO generator. Although people use HHO generators in practice a very little research has been carried out in implementing an efficient system. This project is mainly focused on finding an efficient configuration of an ordinary HHO generator that is efficient than an ordinary system. Here the generator was tested under several conditions in order to determine a convenient design for an efficient HHO generator.

KAJIAN TERHADAP BESARAN DAYA DAN EFISIENSI ALAT PERANGKAT GENERATOR HHO SEDERHANA TIPE DRY CELL SEBAGAI BAHAN PADUAN PEMBAKARAN DALAM PADA KENDARAAN BERMOTOR

Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui terhadap besaran daya dan efisiensi alat perangkat generator HHO sederhana tipe dry cell sebagai bahan paduan pembakaran dalam pada kendaraan bermotor. Metode yang dilakukan dengan mempergunakan proses elektrolisis. Elektrolisis adalah pengurangan suatu elektrolit oleh arus listrik pada sel-sel elektrolisis, dimana molekul air (H2O) menjadi molekul hidrogen dan oxigen (HHO) yang menggunakan arus listrik dalam larutan elektrolit. Proses ini terjadi pada susunan plat dengan ukuran dan ruas kisi-kisi yang telah ditentukan. Jumlah plat ada sebelas, dan hanya dua plat yang diberikan hantaran arus listrik langsung pada baterai DC dikutub positif dan negative. Dari dua kutub tersebut terjadi reaksi reduksi (katoda) dan reaksi oksidasi (anoda) dalam air yang di alirkan arus listrik langsung mengalir melalui sistem. Dalam penelitian ini gas hidrogen dan oksigen dihasilkan, dan laju produksi HHO meningkat serta kecepatan arus listrik yang dibutuhkan dalam proses elektrolisis. Kata kunci: Brown’s Gas, Elektrolisis, besaran daya dan efisiensi generator gas HHO.
