#023 - MadStu's Water Powered Van - Cell 4 - NEW RECORD!

[nbm34]

Can you please tell me if you are heating the water to make HYDGOGEN from the vans RADIATOR.

WHAT IS THE REASON WHY you can not run the diesel engine ON PURE HYDROGEN.????

IF THIS IS BECAUSE IT IS TO Explosive, I believe you need only to run hydrogen ina magnetic field to keep the electrons under control. Hope thie is of some help. i look forward to seeing you get 100% H2O as well

please let me know when you begin this test.

I will work on the magnetic field. GOOD LUCK

Hi,

No, the water heats up naturally from the electrolysis process.

The eventual goal is to power the van entirely off of HHO. Of course this is very difficult to do though - I've only ever seen 2 vehicles being 100% powered from water. By Stan Meyers and Daniel Dingel. Neither of them however have publicised their secrets and Meyers is now dead.

[MadStu1978]

Also, I believe others are experimenting with magnetic fields also. It's beyond my capabilities though, so I hope if you do make any progress, you publish your findings publicly so others can benefit too.

Thanks for the interest :)

Stu.

i see you thanked your family for their support in your project, does this include your mum lol!!??

[MadStu1978]

Yep, hello mum!

If your cell gets brown and gunky use distilled water tap water contaminants cause the cell to clog you will need to clean it if that happens try pressure washing it should come off other wise you may need to disassemble the cell to clean it what are you using as an electrolyte, baking soda will damage it.

[MadStu1978]

KOH or Potassium Hydroxide is being used.

This is filtered tap water, but I agree about using Distilled.

I didn't use Distilled because I didn't have enough. However, I want to use this in a real world environment so don't want to be using Distilled water as it costs almost as much as Diesel! Eventually I want it to run 100% tap water.

Thanks for the comments, much appreciated :D

Check out the GREENPOWERSCIENCE vids i'm subscribed to. It shows you a free, solar way to distill water :D Keep up the great work!!

[MadStu1978]

cool, thanks

Its a awesome project and the battle is over for most people when you keep putting videos

out ,,,everybody wins ,,,Kisses and Hugs!!Sherrie

OK,

0,5 liter in 32,9 seconds at 13,6 volts / 19,5 amps gives 40% efficiency. Not bad.

[MadStu1978]

Good to know.

I can't take any credit for results though - it's all just a fluke with me at the moment!

[JustRobots]

Cool project !!

[MadStu1978]

Thanks :)

so you are doing about 3 milliters per minute per watt of energy input ... not bad, not bad at all ... the typical commercially available systems rately get better than 2 mmw so you are doing MUCH better than average ... the best I have seen is about 7 mmw ...

nice job ... hell of a job actaully ...

now, get us some numbers on your gas milage ... you have about 1 LPM being delivered ... a 20% improement would be exellent ... any more than that would be extraordinay ...

[MadStu1978]

Wow, Excellent!

How is that calculated?

As for numbers. I'm afraid not :(

Something went pop... #024 coming soon...

[SmartScarecrow]

uh-oh ... pop is generally bad ... bang is generally very bad ... booooom is really, really bad ... and Ka-boooom normally brings the cops around ...

[MadStu1978]

hehe, yeah, just a pop. A big pop though, hehe. It's uploaded and processing...
