WHAT IS WATER FUELLED CAR?

A water-fuelled car is a hypothetical automobile that uses water as fuel or produces fuel from

water on-board with no energy input.

CLAIMS OF FUNCTIONING WATER FUELLED CAR

1. Garrett electrolytic carburetor(1935)

2. Stanley Meyer's water fuel cell(1980)

3.Dennis klein(2002)

4. Genepax Water Energy System

5.Dr Ghulam Sarwar(2011)

6. Agha Waqar Ahmad(2012)

TATA MOTORS FUNDING WATER CAR PROJECT AT M.I.T.

COMPARISON OF HYDROGEN AND GASOLINE AS FUEL

HYDROGEN PRODUCES 2.7 TIMES ENERGY PRODUCED PER FUEL MASS,BY GASOLINE

TECHNOLOGIES USED IN WATER FUELLED CARS

1.ELECTROLYSIS

•WE ARE TAUGHT THAT THIS CAN’T WORK IN CAR DUE TO

LESS ENERGY PRODUCED•ON BOARD ELECTROLYSIS IS

USED.

2. JAPANESE WATER CAR

• ELECTRICITY POWERED (300W) CAR WAS MADE. POWER GENERATION WAS SIMILAR TO NORMAL FUEL CELL.

• MEA(Membrane Electrode Assembly) WAS USED TO PRODUCE HYDROGEN FROM WATER INVOLVING A “CHEMICAL REACTION”,BUT DIDN’T REVEAL THE REACTION.

• GENERATOR WAS USED TO TAKE HYDROGEN FROM WATER,THEN RELEASE ELECTRON AND GENERATE ELECTRICAL POWER.

• PERFORMANCE:1 LITRE80 KM@80KMPH

3. WATER FUEL CELL-STANLEY MEYER

Electrolysis:H2O + E1 H2 + O2

Combustion:H2 + O2 H2O + E2

Energy:E1 > E2

• MEYER CLAIMED THAT HEAT RELEASED WAS GREATER THAN ELECTRICAL ENRGY USED,THIS VIOLATES 1ST &2ND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS.

• IT MAY NOT BE ACTUAL FUELL CELL BUT AN ELECTROLYTIC CELL.

4. HYDROGEN BOOSTERS

• ON-BOARD ELECTROLYSIS FUEL CELLS:-HYDROGEN AT CATHODE AND OXYGEN

AT ANODE-1-3% ELECTROLYTE SOLUTION i.e. KOH

• BROWN’S GAS : H2 AND O2 MIXED IN 2:1 RATIO , BURNS CLEAN AND PRODUCE HIGH COMBUSTION GAS , CALLED E-GAS OR BROWN GAS.

• AFTER PRODUCTION OF H2 AND O2 FROM HYDROGEN BOOSTERS , BROWN GAS IS FORMED, THAT CAN’T BE STORED BUT READILY BE USED AS FUEL.

ADVANTAGES OF HYDROGEN BOOSTERS

• INCREASES ENGINE LIFE • IMPROVES GAS MILEAGE• CLEAN EMISSION• VERSATILE: CAN WORK WITH ANY IC ENGINE• ACTS AS OCTANE BOOSTER TO FUEL MIXTURE• INCREASES HORSEPOWER OUTPUT OF ENGINE

HYDROGEN BOOSTER AS A PERORMANCE ENHANCER

5. WATER TO GAS TECHNOLOGY

• ELECTRICITY IS USED TO CONVERT WATER INTO HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN,BURNT TO 2:1 RATIO THEN LEADS TO HHO FORMATION.

• HHO GAS IS BURNT TO PRODUCE ENERGY AND EXHAUST WATER VAPOURS.

ADVANTAGE:-NO CHANGE IN IC ENGINE IS REQUIRED.

ASSEMBLY OF WATER TO GAS TECHNOLOGY

• A 950 CC QUART SIZED FILLED WITH DISTILLED WATER, AND A BIT OF BAKING SODA.

• THIS SETUP PRODUCES BROWN’S GAS AND THAT IS FLOWED INTO ENGINE INTAKE MANIFOLD OR CARBURATOR.

• IGNITION SWITCH IS CONNECTED BETWEEN BATTERY AND DEVICE TO RESTRICT SYSTEM FROM PRODUCING HYDROGEN WHEN ENGINE IS OFF.

WATER TO GAS TECHNOLOGY IN CARS

H.F.I. SYSTEM FROM CANADA• HYDROGEN FUEL INJECTOR,ON BOARD

GENERATOR OF H2 AND O2 .

• MIXING OF INCOMING AIR AND H2 AND O2 IN INTAKE MANIFOLD.

ADVANTAGES OF HFI SYSTEM

• SAFER,HYDROGEN AT LESS PRESSURE• COMPLETE COMBUSTION OF EXISTING FUEL.• REDUCES HARMFUL EMISSION.• IMPROVES FUEL EFFICIENCY AND ENGINE

POWER.

WATER TO GAS SYSTEMS

• UNIVERSITY OF CALGORY:ON BOARD ELECTROLYSIS,WITH ADDITIONAL

HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN INPUT FROM OUTSIDE.

• SOME OF ENGINE OUTPUT ENERGY WAS USED IN ELECTROLYSIS PROCESS.

CONCLUSION

• LOT OF FAILURE WERE ACCOUNTED BY ENGINEERS AND SCIENTISTS.

• HYDROGEN BOOSTERS AND WATER TO GAS TECHNOLOGY HAVE GREAT FUTURE AHEAD.

• ACTUAL WATER FUEL CAR HAS NOT BEEN MANUFACTURED AND APPROVED BY THE TECHNOLOGICAL FRATENITY.
