Characteristics Experimental Study of Wet Cells HHO Generator with Perforated Plate Electrodes

HHO merupakan gas hasil elektrolisa air yang dapat digunakan sebagai bahan bakar tambahan pada motor bakar. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui karakteristik generator HHO menggunakan elektroda pelat berlubang. Elektroda yang dipakai berupa pelat aluminium dengan ukuran 60 x 60 x 0.5 mm3 dengan variasi tanpa lubang, 4 lubang, 6 lubang, dan 9 lubang. Masing-masing lubang berdiameter 4 mm. Variasi tegangan input 3,5; 6; 7,5; 9 Volt. Karakteristik yang diuji meliputi daya input, debit, dan efisiensi generator HHO. Hasil yang didapatkan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa debit gas HHO yang terbesar dihasilkan dengan elektroda 9 lubang yaitu sebesar 5,77 cc/min dengan daya input 4,59 Watt. Sedangkan efisiensi generator tertinggi juga dihasilkan dengan elektroda 9 lubang yang mampu mencapai efisiensi 63,16 % dengan daya input 0,52 Watt.

Study of Selected Characteristics of 8-Cell HHO Generator Using Various Concentrations of NaOH Solutions

The aim of the contribution is to carry out the study of the conditions of HHO gas production. All of the measurements were executed on dry cell HHO generator made of 8 stainless electrodes with NaOH solution as an electrolyte. Three concentrations of NaOH solutions (5%, 10% and 20%) were used and the changes in volt-ampere characteristics, efficiency and hourly volume performance were monitored and results were processed and compared. The KOH solution is considered as a best available electrolyte from the perspective of stability and moreover it is more suitable in cold outdoor conditions. However, the NaOH solution provides higher maximum efficiency of HHO gas production. Some recommendations to increase the efficiency of the generator are described in the conclusion.

Study of Selected Characteristics of a Dry Cell Hydrogen Generator in Conditions of Long Term Operation

Hydrogen generator (HHO generator) is a relatively simply device where the oxygen and hydrogen are produced via water electrolysis. Mostly, water solutions of NaOH or KOH are used instead of pure water due to higher electric conductivity of these solutions. In these measurements, current of 2 A was set for three hours and changes in voltage, temperature, efficiency and hourly volume performance were monitored. All measurements were realized with 10% KOH and 10% NaOH solutions and the results were compared and evaluated. KOH solution is considered as a best available one because of its high chemical stability and efficiency of HHO gas production and NaOH solution was selected due to its low price and good availability.

Study of Basic Characteristics of Hydrogen Generator

HHO technology appeared in USA in 1950s but only in last years it became more interesting due to rising of fossil fuels price. In a device called HHO generator, hydrogen and oxygen are produced onboard on vehicle by electrolysis of water solution of NaOH or KOH. This mixture of gases is known as a HHO gas and it is used as an additive to gasoline in conventional internal combustion engines. Construction of a HHO generator is relatively simply process with small money requirements. All measurements were realized with 10% KOH solution because this electrolyte at this concentration is considered as the best available one. KOH solution excels in chemical stability and efficiency of HHO gas production. For comparison, the 10% NaOH solution was prepared because of low price and good availability of NaOH and all measurements were repeated and results were compared.

STUDI EKSPERIMEN PENGARUH PENAMBAHAN GAS HHO TERHADAP DISTRIBUSI TEMPERATUR API PADA KOMPOR TEKAN (BLOW-TORCH BURNER) BERBAHAN BAKAR KEROSENE+OLI BEKAS

The quality of combustion in stoves press (blow-torch burner) can be improved in various ways. One way is use renewable fuel that is HHO gas, which is produced from HHO generator dry type, also by utilizing the waste oils as fuel. The addition of HHO gas and used oil in stove press (blow-torch burner) burning will reduce the volume of kerosene consumption.This study was conducted using true experiment with fuel kerosene + used oil as a control group were then compared to the fuel mix used oil and kerosene + HHO gas. Tests conducted on a test stove and combined with a self-designed HHO generator. HHO gas production rate that entering to combustion chamber as much as 2.3 LPM. HHO Gas and vapor mixing kerosene + used oil are combined in premix using ejector, by varying the fuel valve opening at openings 25% and 50%. Parameters measured were flame fire structure based on the contours of isothermal, the temperature distribution at each altitude, high fire, flame width, power fuel and conduction heat transfer that occurs.Based on the results of research showed that the fuel valve openings and the addition of HHO gas on the stove press (blow-torch burner) burning led to a decline in flame height, increase the width of the flame, increasing the temperature distribution, power fuel, as well as conduction heat transfer with increasing fuel valve openings and the addition of HHO gas.Keywords: stove press (Blow-torch burner), kerosene, used oil, HHO gas, HHO generator.Studi Eksperimen Pengaruh Penambahan Gas HHO37
