This is the Briggs & Stratton powered 160A alternator rig I'll be testing for the first time at Waldorf. Haven't even had time to do any tests at home with it yet. You and I will learn the results together at Waldorf.

  • Results from two full sets of data

    No alternator load, no HHO, run times = x

    25A alternator load, no HHO, run times = 0.86x

    25A load, HHO fed back to carb, RT = 0.94x

    All the energy used to create the HHO was taken mechanically from the motor. There was no adjustment for gasoline fuel mixture during these tests. Gasoline engines can definitely run MUCH leaner in the presence of HHO without damage, predetonation or increased emissions which is where the net efficiency gains will come from!

  • I am working on a carb now that will allow me to adjust high speed run mixture for future testing. I will also be recording exhaust temps to prove I'm not running too lean, or burning valves. It will further prove that more of the heat energy is being translated to mechanical energy at the crankshaft rather than going out the exhaust as waste heat.

  • Zero, It has been six months, I thought you were going to post results after you installed the adjustable carb. When can we expect the results?

  • When the garage thaws out. ;-)

  • I like this setup because it is the same in a car. When can we see a video of run time with gasoline and run time with HHO assist?

  • What the fuck. Build a test rig, post the video, let 43 days go by without announcing any test data. What was the point in building the rig?

  • so is this engine running on gasoline and hydrogen or just hydrojen

  • Have you adjusted the timing of the motor?

  • kdkinen above

  • he who zero?

  • Results posted.

  • Because he came to his senses and realized what a jerk he was being.
