It's no secret that HHO or what is commonly known as Brown's Gas
has been used in combustible diesel and petrol engines in vehicle's such
as cars, MPVs, trucks, trailers, crane and excavators. But many are not
aware of the potential use of HHO in diesel generators. From the
definition of Diesel Generators in Wikipedia, "A diesel generator is the
combination of a diesel engine with an electrical generator (often
called an alternator) to generate electrical energy. Diesel generating
sets are used in places without connection to the power grid or as
emergency power-supply if the grid fails. Small portable diesel
generators range from about 1kVA to 10kVA may be used as power supplies
on construction sites, or as auxiliary power for vehicles such as mobile
homes."
THE RIGHT DIESEL GENERATORS FOR POTENTIAL HHO APPLICATION
But
we are currently talking about larger diesel generators 100 KVA and
above which are normally used to power buildings, such as rest stop
areas beside highway roads, telecommunication towers, cement lifting
cranes at construction sites, etc. Most of these types of Diesel
Generators operate daily between 12 hours to 24 hours, which the users
themselves spend thousands to tens of thousands of dollars per month to
maintain their operations that rely on electricity off grid.
END OF CHEAP OIL BECOMES A COSTLY PROBLEM
Let's
look into the current issue of these particular Diesel Generators. It
may have been a time during the cheap oil era; people would not be
bothered with the high use of diesel fuel in Diesel Generators to
generate Electricity for the use at their premises. During the mid 2008,
the oil peaked more than USD 100 per barrel causing a ruckus in
businesses that rely on diesel fuel for their diesel generators. That it
would have caused an increase in operational cost which will deeply
affect the profits for the companies that rely on electricity
generatored by Diesel Generators.
WASTAGE OF MONEY ON INNEFFICIENT & INCOMPLETE FUEL COMBUSTION IN DIESEL GENERATORS
Many
may not be aware of this, due to the prolonged use of the engines in
the Diesel Generators be it two months or more, the Engines, just like
any other internal combustion engines would accumulate carbon deposits
and would cause incomplete fuel combustion. Therefore, there is no doubt
that the Diesel Generators are using much more fuel than they need to
generate electricity. The wastage is estimated to be at least 20
percent, which in the long run, is a large sum of money; could be up to
thousands of dollars a month. Like any departments of a company,
efficiency of operations would save time and money for any businessmen.
This proves to be true even for the efficiency of a diesel generator as
well. It is no doubt as mentioned by many, the primary goal of any
business owner is to survive the current economic downturn is to develop
a leaner, more cost effective and more efficient operations.
LISTEN TO EXTREMES OF BOTH EXPERTS WILL NOT UNCOVER THE TRUTH OF HHO TECHNOLOGY
There
are opinions that automotive and fuel technology has been deliberately
held back and people have been kept in the dark about amazing inventions
and discoveries. They blame it on Big Oil Companies. In my opinion, HHO
or Browns Gas is one such "fuel technology" but I beg to differ that
this technology is being held back but was less researched due to
skepticism by a large number of people. "Experts" would theorize and
build hydrogen generators like the commonly known "Electrolyzers" and
make excessive claims of 50% to 70% even double the mileage of a car.
While other "Experts" would theorize and disprove HHO or Brown's Gas
technology, commenting such technology as scams. They are the extremes
of both; however there are several others like us would apply this
technology to find out the truth.
HHO POTENTIAL TOWARDS DIESEL GENERATORS CAUGHT OUR ATTENTION
In
this article, I will not further elaborate about HHO or Brown's Gas and
would assume the reader to have basic knowledge about this technology
before reading this. From personal experiences of installing Hydrogen
Generators or commonly known as "Electrolyzers" into Diesel Generators
100 KVA and above, we ourselves were surprised of the results of the
fuel saved in those Diesel Generators. The results of course vary, for
the Diesel Generators, but what have caught our attention was the least
savings for the Diesel Generators was 30%.
Here are the other feedbacks from the owners of the Diesel Generators themselves during the trial run
1) Engine Runs Smoother
2) Less Hazardous Carbon Emissions
3) The Gradual Increase of Fuel Saved (as the Internal Engines get cleaner from complete combustion)
NO MORE INCOMPLETE COMBUSTION OF FUEL FOR ALL DIESEL GENERATORS
This
has solved the main issues of Incomplete Combustion of Fuel for all
Diesel Generators. From complete fuel combustion, there were are
significant carbon deposits residing in the engines, allowing better
efficient engine performance for the Diesel Generators.
HOW DOES HHO HELP IN THE COMPLETE FUEL COMBUSTION IN DIESEL GENERATORS
The Hydrogen Generators or "Electrolyzers", through electrolytic
process, hydrogen and oxygen (known as Brown's Gas) are separated from
distilled or reverse osmosis water and supplied to the intake manifold
of the Diesel Generator via vacuum generated by the Engine. The HHO or
Brown's Gas is then combined with the Diesel Fuel and dramatically
improves the combustion. About 45% of Diesel normally burns during
combustion. With HHO that jumps to 90%.
The HHO within the Diesel Engine
1) Intake (Air & hydrogen Enter Cylinder)
2) Compression (Mix Heats Up)
3) Piston Compresses Air with HHO
4) Ignition (Fuel Added, Combustion)
5) Faster Burn, Quicker Release: More Power
6) Exhaust (Gasses Expelled)
7) Less Emissions Cleaner Exhaust Gas (Less Carbon Deposits)
STEPS TO INSTALL HYDROGEN DEMAND SYSTEMS TO DIESEL GENERATORS
The
installation process is much simpler than it is in Diesel Cars. In fact
it takes only an hour while the Diesel Generator is running.
1)
Identify the Battery (12volt/24volt). This is to identify the type of
Hydrogen Generator needed to operate. For Example, once we have
identified that a Diesel Generator runs on a 24 volt starter battery. We
will select the Hydrogen Generator that operates at 24 volts.
2)
Identify the location of air vacuum (intake manifold). A hole is made by
drilling and elbow tubing is fixed and glued for tubing insertion
3) A location is identified to place the Hydrogen Generator
4) The Wiring harness which includes fuse, relay, relay socket and wires provided is used to install the Hydrogen Generator
5) The Electricity source will be taken from the alternator via wiring setup (Positive wire from the Hydrogen Generator)
6) The Earth source will be taken from any part of the body engine of the Diesel Generator (Negative wire from the Hydrogen)
7) Distilled or Reverse Osmosis Water and Catalyst are filled into the Hydrogen Generator
8)
The electric current flowing within the Hydrogen Generator is adjusted
to 12 amps with an estimation of 3 liters of Gas per Hour.
CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE COMPARED TO SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY
It
is better not to take our word for it or listen to any "experts" who
theorize and disprove claims. We recommend it is better for the reader
themselves to try and get involved in this HHO Technology especially in
the applications of Diesel Generators. As we have discovered that Diesel
Generators are one of the most suitable in the applications of HHO
because of its consistency of engine operations in comparison with
vehicles which depend heavily on road conditions and user driving
habits. It has been known that, users living off grid electricity rely
heavily on Diesel to generate electricity for 12 hours or more. There
are proposals of solar energy and wind turbines to be combined use with
diesel generators to further reduce the cost of operations. However, it
is the high cost of pre investment that leaves the user in doubt of its a
few years period of Return on Investment. HHO or Brown's Gas is the
cheaper alternative to allow the users to save a large portion of their
money in a month or two period of Return on Investment (ROI). The
manufacturing and deploying Hydrogen Generators in much more cost
effective than manufacturing and deploying solar panels and wind
turbines.
