Herman Anderson water fuel
Herman Anderson
Hydrogen-on-Demand
Deuterium Gas, sometimes called H2 with the number "2" placed above,instead of below, the center of the "H", as when writing H20, and aka "heavy hydrogen" (not to be confused with the liquid deuterium oxide, aka "heavy water") may well be one of the keys to a successful water fuel system.Herman Anderson is the only water fuel device inventor to talk openly and at length about this. Herman explained why it is important to make deuterium,which is a non-radioactive isotope of hydrogen. It is twice as dense as hydrogen. That means you will need less than 1/2 of the gas you would otherwise need to run a car! It also means that the flame speed is reduced!That means more power!Some of the challenges associated with using hydrogen as fuel are eliminated simply by tweaking the hydrogen produced from water so that it becomes deuterium. Again, we're not talking about "heavy water", but "heavy hydrogen". It is rocket science, to be sure, and that is why Herman was uniquely qualified to know how to do it. He was a rocket scientist.He may not have had a degree in physics, but he knew ions, and he was the one to reveal this to the world in his own Tennessee "country boy" way. He said that a 70,000 volt corona discharge superimposed on normal electrolysis will cause the hydrogen ions to form deuterium. He further stated that the gas is powerful enough that you have to shut down production of it at idle.It used an LP regulator and had a working pressure of 8 ounces!
Herman's System:
A 3-1/2" wide slice of 14" OD PVC pipe
is fitted with two narrow (1") strips of the same pipe recessed just inside of its two openings. This allows the mounting of the two 13" round nickel-plated steel anode and cathode plates to these mounting flanges.A gasket and gasket-sealing compound are used to seal the plates to the chamber.
The plates thus mounted are now 3" apart. They have a short1/2" bolt welded to the middle of each plate, facing outward, to accommodate the electrical connection, which is a battery cable on the positive side, and a battery cable and a HV spark wire on the negative side
The chamber has 4 holes drilled and tapped at the 12:00, 3:00, 6:00 and9:00 positions. The two located at 3:00 and 6:00 accept 1" barbed hose connectors and plastic hoses that connect to a 2" PVC stand pipe. It is used as a thermo-siphon radiator and allows the introduction and circulation of the KOH electrolyte solution (pH 12, using de-ionized or ozonated water). The 9:00 hole is capped and unused.
The 12:00 hole is drilled and tapped to accommodate a 1-1/2" white plastic sink trap adapter 'T' drainpipe
This allowed for the passage of the hydroxy gas on to the LP regulator and finally the engine's carburetor. It also allowed for the introduction of a stream of pressurized air from the car's heater blower fan.
A Honeywell gas pressure sensing switch, mounted between the chamber and the regulator, detects hydroxy pressure and shuts down the current to the electrolyzer when it reaches 8 oz. Gas production is thus cycled on and off as needed.The aluminum throat that is used to induct the hydroxy to the carburetor is like that formerly used on an LP forklift. It prevents the escape of the lighter-than-air hydrogen gas.
A Lemert Selectrol water injection device, such as used on a WWII P-51bomber, introduces a fog-like stream of water vapor to the intake manifold,which serves to cool the burn of the hydrogen and adds steam power to the combustion stroke. i would post pictures if i know how to add pics here.
