This web page is an inspiration I
started but have not finished. The generator is powered by a small
engine; one that does not require a lot of fuel consumption. The
generator supplies enough electrical power to create its own fuel,
but does it have enough reserve to do work for the owner?
HHO gas is being made from water via an
Electrolysis Process. Basically, 10.44 milliliters is made between
each set of electrode plates (per amp of electrical power - per
minute). In order to achieve heat efficiency, and electrical
efficiency, the amperage must pass across multiple water
compartments that are arranged in Series between positive and
negative electrode plates. To do that efficiently heat wise, plate
voltage needs to be around 2 volts Dc to 2.25 vdc; or there about.
So your power source is going to determine the number of electrode
plates needed for a single Cell Stack (group of plates in Series).
How much HHO you intend to make, will
determine the Dimensions or Size of the plates; based on the amount
of Amperage you intend to pass across them. If size becomes an
issue, then Multiple Cell Stacks enters the picture. It is not so
complicated as complex. Once understood, you could predict what is
needed.
If your Generator has a DC power output,
you could use that to power a Cell. It is the Watts that you need to
be concerned with ( Volts x Amps). Higher voltage needs less
amperage in order to create an equal amount of HHO; generally
speaking.
12 volts x 10 amps = 120 Watts
24 volts x 5 amps - 120 Watts
120 volts x 1 amp - 120 Watts
So, high voltage and low amperage has
its advantage but it is more costly to construct a Cell - because of
the increase in the number of electrodes.
Most Experimenters are using HHO as a
supplement to improve the fuel efficiency of their AC Generators;
adding HHO to the Air the engine takes in. So, 12 and 24 volt DC
power sources are generally being used. If your intention is to
totally fuel the Generator via HHO gas, or just the Hydrogen, then
high voltage is going to be your solution.
The Generator Industry needs to get away
from Stator type generation and take up Permanent Magnet Generation.
That is what is needed to reduce the cogging caused by turning the
armature of the generator. Today's engines require too much horse
power to turn the armature. Permanent Magnet armatures would reduce
the resistance on the engine to turn it.
Because power generation operates
for long hours, it is going to be very important to build a Cell
that can operate for those long hours, continuously.
A 12 volt DC power source would need
7 electrode plates in Series in order to achieve 2 volts per
plate.
A 24 volt DC power source would need
13.
A 120 volt DC source would need 61.
(the AC voltage has to be converted to DC).
A 240 volt DC source would need 121.
If you are going to depend on this
operation as your only source of power, then you had best have a
backup.
