subject: Behind The Scene: How Water To Gas Systems Works [print this page] Water4Gas, runyourcaronwater, Fueltrips, drivewithwaterfuel, wam-a-bam. Sound familiar? These are some of the sites that offer technology to run cars on Hydrogen (HHO or Brown's Gas) which may also be named Hydroxy, that originates from water. These are the principal water to gas players in the market nowadays. So how does this technology works?
If you where contemplating to change to this type of fuel system, it is essential to understand a couple of things. You are never going to be asked to actually put water into your gas tank. Nor will you be able to buy a vehicle with a water to gas engine. Actually, it is very simple. You don't have to change your engine or you car computer.
The water to gas conversion kit comes in with different part in which can be simply constructed at home over the weekend. It only requires a few basic tools. The conversion kits main components would be:
Electrolyzer (some people call it "Hydrogen Generator"): these would be the containers (quart sized) may consist of about 950cc of ordinary tap water or distilled water (based on the requirement of the manufacturer of the conversion kit). It could be glass, metal or plastic containers.
MAP Sensor Enhancer: this electronic gadget minimizes fuel usage without modifying the engine or the computer
Vaporizer: adds water vapour to the engine to cool it down, enhances combustion and fuel economy.
Fuel Heater: pre-heats your gasoline for improved gas economy, making use of only energy coming from the radiator that gets wasted otherwise, it calls for no changes made to the radiator or its hoses.
PCV Enhancer: yet another excellent companion to your hydrogen system that improves the PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) function, protects your engine and helps you to save gasoline. Fuse holder wiring. Connect to the 12 volts.
Vacuum T-connector: helps you splice the vacuum line for feeding the hydrogen and oxygen into the engine.
Catalyst: Ordinary baking soda.
Raw hydrogen is unsafe, particularly storing it in large compressed volumes in containers. It can result into explosion, however water does not explode. That is the reason why water to gas conversion kits do not utilize pure hydrogen. Since hydrogen is already compressed or found in water, it is safely and quickly released and consumed. So when HHO is produced, the by-product left is water. Absolutely no hazardous chemicals are being emitted from this system. You just need plenty of space beneath the hood to position a quart sized jar to put the water and catalyst. Catalyst is actually the substance that helps the electricity divide water into HHO. Absolutely nothing will occur without this material. This process uses normal baking soda, you can easily grab it from the nearest grocery store or from your own kitchen cupboard.
Water is converted into HHO gas utilizing electricity from the car's battery. The quart-sized water jar with a small bit of baking soda is positioned under the hood. This device is connected with some fuse holder and wires to the car's battery. It is provided with vacuum and electricity from the engine generates the HHO gas. The HHO gas is supplied to the carburaetor. The generator from your battery attaches the device by way of the ignition switch. This prevents hydrogen production when the engine is off and utilizes less electricity.
Understanding how risk-free and straightforward to construct to water to gas conversion kits provides us a view on an alternative way to save our visits to the pump. But always, it is very important whenever you will be using this system or any system at all that will support us financially, to stick to the provided directions and understand the system that you are going to purchase and use.
