Remember the water powered car recently?

I was nosing about on the net and found this site, thought some of you might be interested. John.

I have not posted a URL before so this might not work, forgive my ineptness if it doesn't. Cheers John.

Damn: maybe you can just try googling the address.

Yep, that works ok.

try http://hytechapps.com/aquygen/hhos

doesnt have the ch in the middle - same bunch??

that company supplies water welders, and have adopted one for use in their vehicle.

also working on making a water powered hummer for the army

same old rip off of an old series design cell (originally patented in the 50's ?I think.
i believe he added a ionizing process for the output as well? to make it HHO .

cheers

Yep, I see where I cocked that address up Thanks paturoa.
I just thought it was another interesting slant on the quest for water power etc.
I guess if they keep on trying some one will hit the big pay dirt sooner or later. Cheers John.

[adam666]

indeed a worthy quest!

the on-demand conversion of water into gas!

Ive spent just over a year experimenting thus far and have a couple of water welders that run on as little as 400w (current unit configured for 14v input).

I have a larger unit for running from the mains in progress, its amazing the heat produced! 2800'c stoich flame temp, and reaching over 3800'c (the highest measurable temp) when using atomic recombination techniques.

its truly amazing being able to weld stone to glass to metal!

cheers

Meh, if I want alternative, I'll get this

[adam666]

oooh oooh grab me one too would ya!

some damn fine electric wheels there!!

Well, there is a way to use the hydrogen in water to power a car and I am not talking about perpetual motion etc. Basicly you mix boron and water. It reacts, and one of the products is of course Hydrogen. The boron is used up and at the next fill you grab a block of boron and a tank full of water. .... The following is a small section of the latest New Scientist article on the subject.

I think it's interesting anyway

By reacting water with the element boron, their system produces hydrogen that can be burnt in an internal combustion engine or fed to a fuel cell to generate electricity. "The aim is to produce the hydrogen on-board at a rate matching the demand of the car engine," says Abu-Hamed. "We want to use the boron to save transporting and storing the hydrogen." The only by-product is boron oxide, which can be removed from the car, turned back into boron, and used again......The team calculates that a car would have to carry just 18 kilograms of boron and 45 litres of water to produce 5 kilograms of hydrogen, which has the same energy content as a 40-litre tank of conventional fuel.
