Hydrogen Gas (HHO) and Hybrid Fuels

[pdgood]

What are you talkin about?

Air/fuel standard gasoline ratio is 14.7 to 1. It's called stoichiometric ratio or lambda. A lean AF ratio produces less power and more heat. That is unless hho is present. When hho is present you can run at a lean gasoline AF ratio with ever lower heat that runnin at stoichiometric without hho.

Detonation happens because hho burns so fast that the piston is still rising at combustion. Early combustion tries to drive the piston down prior to top dead center causin detonation which can break rods and crack pistons. timing must be changed when using hho to run properly.

The rich AF mixture is used in many applications outside of normal driving. A lean mix increases heat. A rich mix, say 14/1 doesnt cool the engine once past the 14.7/1 stoichiometric optimal. It does use more fuel and produce more emissions.

The point of this whole discussion on A/F ratios is that hho allows you to run lean with positive effects, not the usual negative. Less fuel consumed and less emissions. If that hho addition allows the effective stoichiometric ratio to be optimal at say 25/1 a rich mixture needed for towin etc would fall in the 20/1 ratio. Far better than the 14.7/1 stock gasoline ratio. again better milage and less emission because you have less gasoline to burn and hho is present to burn it more complete. That's the bottom line on hho hybrid fuels. It also relates to my posts on fuel management throughout all RPM ranges.
