This is a 25 hp twin engine with a GEET reactor. I have 4 cups of water and 1.5 cups of Coleman fuel labeled "White Gas". The engine would not run with the carby air intake open. It would not run with the reactor fresh air input open any more than about 5% max.. The bubbler air intake valve is open to let fresh air in but exhaust gas also goes to the same point. The exhaust back pressure valve is open for no restriction so exhaust is not blown out that bubbler fresh air valve. The 2nd vertical pipe in a pipe on the right is a percolator but I have the liquid line closed so the exhaust is juts coming up through it from the bottom and then going over to the bubbler. The bubbler output side valve is just barely open and adjusted so I get 10 inches vacuum at the jar I have inline between the bubbler and the reactor's intake input. If I add just 0 to 5% fresh air right at the reactor input it runs better but if I go just a little too much it kills it fast and even if I turn it back fast it stays killed until I restart the engine on the original carby and then shut off its petrol supply. I also have the engine's crank case ventilation going to the jar that reads 10 inches vacuum. I forgot to zoom in on that when I made the video.

I know it needs lots of work still. It is not very efficient. I still have a good amount of heat coming out the exhaust pipe. I don't know why I have so much problem trying to mix very much fresh air with the reactor output gases when others have no problem. Even on the input side of the reactor, if I add very much fresh air at all it kills it fast.

  • Can we see this unit under load? I have yet to see one of these engines being run under load....

  • @n0csw These are driving a load: GEETs mowing tall grass: watch?v=m0kkXBFEoU8 watch?v=zCKKYGHkNn0 watch?v=DpqTMjRV5VY GEET in a car getting better mileage: watch?v=ntTrXBYdNQs GEETs in Heavy Equipment: watch?v=gT_69ra2PB0 watch?v=gv0AjiPj34E GEET on a generator driving a light: watch?v=Kibz18JNmB8
  • Interesting, still trying to understand it. can run on "water" (HHO) electolised separating the two components H2 and O as a fuel! (Yero emmisions if that is possible!

  • The process is more closely related to steam reforming than it is to electrolysis.

    Google search "steam reforming"

    or "plasma fuel reformer"

  • Mine gets super hot too. Its because of the bubbler is not efficient.

  • If you mean running closed loop, you do not need to "loop" the reactor to crack the fuel and without either a plasma or a catalyst you cannot crack the fuel vapours.

    I suggest you do more research. Do a google search of:

    "steam reforming"

    "fuel reformer"

    "plasma fuel reformer"

  • I see it but it looks like a vapourizer not a reactor. You do not have a catalytic process nor a plasma process that cracks the fuel. There is no steam reforming.

    Do a google search of steam reforming. Without the aid of either a catalyst or a plasma you just have a vapourizer. There is no endothermic reaction that carries potential energy back to the engine as shorter chain more volatile molecules.

  • Yes I made one put petrol oil and water in it it ran the same as with just petrol about 10 mins. I was thinking making the heat exchanger tube longer and the fuel rod plus putting a longer pipe into the fuel tank to warm the fuel a lot more as I am trying to run on just waste engine oil.

    Its ok if you got some stale petrol or petrol mixed with junk water etc. But like you said petrol is made of several different fuels.

    Looks nice set up m8

  • nice one,

    keep up the good work

    :-)
