The present invention relates to the sector of production of mechanical energy starting from fuels. More specifically, it regards an apparatus for controlled and instantaneous production of hydrogen to be introduced into the intake duct (C) of an internal-combustion engine (1), said apparatus being characterized in that it comprises, in combination: a tank (2) containing distilled water, preferably, but not exclusively, with potassium hydroxide in solution, or else NaOH or other suitable solute, for increasing the electrical conductivity of the water itself; a multi-plate electrolyser (4); a square- wave pulse generator (PWM); and a connection to the battery of the vehicle on which the apparatus is installed, or else to other similar source of electrical energy; wherein a data processing unit (CPU) is provided, which is interfaced to the pulse generator (PWM) and is equipped with a pipe (3), which functions as air-flow meter, connected to the intake manifold (C) of the internal-combustion engine (1); said air-flow meter (3) being subject to the pressure variations that arise in said intake manifold (C). |
