ELECTROLYSIS APPARATUS FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES

摘要

A hydrogen gas generating chamber can be used in a hydrocarbon fuel combustion engine to produce hydrogen gas to supplement the primary fuel burned by the engine. The chamber includes various means for eliminating the risk of explo sion including a plug releasable by internal pressure, a burstable section on the hou sing, and a solenoid valve actuated to vent any gases generated while the engine is no t operating and a gas production/consumption feed back loop. The chamber is formed of a ABS material which tends not to shatter. The electrodes of the chamber are arranged to create electrolytic cells operating with voltages efficacious for el ectrolysis of water and reducing or minimizing ohmic heating while using standard vehicle voltages.
