Evaluation effect of plate electrode characteristics on engine speed performance in application of HHO generator for four-stroke engine

摘要

Natural gas (HHO) Spark-Ignition Engine (SI) engines are preferred over petrol engines due to environmentally friendly and fuel consumption. Hydrogen-Compressed Natural Gas (HCNG) technology is a promising alternative to conventional compressed natural gas engines because hydrogen has stable lean burn characteristics. An experimental test was performed on SI petrol to study the effect of plate's electrode characteristics on engine speed performance. Statistical analyses of engine speed performance were examined according to analysis of variance (ANOVA) results. The results obtained from the ANOVA based on experimental data. The test gave the result such that the engine rpm has been increased by 30 - 50 % with an HHO compared with synthetic fuel.
