  • Patent number: 12258926
    Abstract: An enhanced control of hydrogen injection for internal combustion engine system and method providing greater real-time control of injection of hydrogen from a hydrogen generator, providing a further increase in performance and decrease in emissions of the engine of the motor vehicle. Initial values for parameters defining the optimal percentage amount or pressure of oxyhydrogen to be injected when the engine load is equal to one of several defined levels are entered and then interpolated to produce a curve specifying the amount of oxyhydrogen to be injected at any given engine-load level. Further adjustments to the load-related oxyhydrogen amounts are made for different engine operating temperatures in relation to different engine loads, and for different ambient air pressures related to altitude in relation to different engine loads. The initial values and adjusted values will be different for different engine types and sizes, different fuel types and grades, and other characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20110253070
    Abstract: A hydrogen generator for apparatus for use in an internal combustion engine of a vehicle for increasing the efficiency of the engine and decreasing emissions from the engine has stainless-steel electrolysis plates that are close-spaced in the generator housing. The hydrogen unit is configured to inject hydrogen after the throttle body and the carburetor using a spacer located between the intake manifold and the throttle body or carburetor. Alternative, a modified spark plug equipped with a tube and a check valve is mounted on the engine, while being controlled by the generator's PCB controller.
