H2-O2-H2O fuel generator
A Hydrogen fuel producing electrolytic device incorporating an electrode assembly producing Hydrogen and Oxygen gases without the aid of chemical electrolytes. The device will supply any combustion based devices using fossil, synthetic, or organic fueled engines. The present invention is used to augment or support any combustion process thereby increasing fuel efficiency or lowering adverse greenhouse gas emissions. An embodiment of the present invention causes self induced, pumping removing the produced H2 and O2 gases efficiently at a rapid rate from the cathode and anode electrode surfaces. Non rigid mountings of individual tubular anodes and or cathodes one within the other allowed for effect in the form of micro oscillations through electro attractive forces of the anodes and cathodes in a non uniform electrolytic fluid.
Circumstances of conception, came about by studying off the shelf readily available hydrogen production units in society now. It was found that any device that was small enough to assist powering a vehicle or other devices that did not require chemical electrolytes was not available. The portable small hydrogen producing devices that are available are designed only for passive supply of the product hydrogen and oxygen. The devices that are available do aid in the combustion of propane, gasoline, or diesel all inclusively, but require very high amperage to do this. This high amperage is just a trade off in electricity in and hydrogen out. We wanted to produce a hydrogen producing invention that overcame all the obstacles inherent in the above devices. Purposes and advantages of invention, is to have a supply of readily available fuel for consumption in the face of the current existing oil and petroleum shortages. The invention requires low amperage to accomplish hydrogen oxygen production and uses no chemicals in its process. The invention only requires the addition of plain mineral drinking water to accomplish what other technologies using chemicals do. Ecology is also a very large consideration in that the fuel burned from our hydrogen generator has a waste product of oxygen, and water, as do the other products available on the market. The very largest advantage that this invention has is it anode and cathode designs which cause the gases to developed is immediately stripped away allowing for a much larger production of fuel. The design causes self-induced fluid convection currents, and flow within the hydrogen reactor chamber that exceeds any of the prior designs. The enhanced flow and close proximity of the cylindrical anodes and cathode causes an electromotive force that pulls the water molecules apart through their own harmonic values, also the self induced pumping of the fluid help strip the produced gas bubbles away to the surface in the cell gas production mixing chamber #19. The invention does not require any signal generators, special circuitry, or pulsed voltages to operate a maximum capacity. The invention is a low voltage low amperage device that needs only to have the amperage increased with its size unlike other state of the art hydrogen or ortho-hydrogen producing devices, which needs high amperages to produce usable amounts of gas. Another advantage is the invention does not require a chemical electrolyte added to the water, which makes it a more desirable system without worry of spillage, environmental hazard, or leaks. The invention uses a polymer dielectric mounting material a the base of the outer anode that resists short or long-term physical breakdown and dielectric degradation. The polymer is a syntactic urethane. The inner cathode and anode are mounted with semi-rigid neoprene “O” rings
Accordingly, several objects and advantages of the invention are the ability to produce, and deliver hydrogen, oxygen and a micro-mist of water into any internal combustion or combustion chamber supported device or system. The fuel produced by the invention delivers a stronger cleaner flame front which then requires less but not limited to any of the standard fuels such as, diesel, gasoline, propane, butane, fuel oil, and ethanol for combustion. The cleaner combustion of any standard fuels used with the inventions produced gasses retards environmental damaging by products due to a more complete combustion process. The invention also increases horsepower of most devices which it's produced gases are delivered to for addition to combustion. The invention can be added to cars, trucks, electric generators, shipping, aircraft, recreational vehicles, home, and large industrial heating. The invention does not use caustic electrolytes or accelerants to produce the hydrogen, oxygen gas, but rather the invention uses plain drinking or distilled water for its operation without chemicals that pollute the environment. The invention extends mileage, fuel, combustion processes, burns clean and causes the fuel that it is extending to burn cleaner. The inventions fuel is totally non-polluting. Still further objects and advantages will become clearer with accompanying claims and drawings.
