Use of hydrogen in classic internal combustion engines.

On this page, I report a list of scientific and technical documents regarding the use of molecular hydrogen in classic internal combustion engines.

Practically, use hydrogen to enrich hydrocarbon fuels to increase combustion efficiency, improve engine performance, and make the engine cleaner during operation, thus less carbon deposit in combustion chambers and exhaust ducts, decrease in polluting particles and exhaust gases, decrease in fuel consumption, increase in the life cycle of the engine.

There are various technological solutions in the world, developed by innovative companies.

Some solutions are easy to implement on a classic engine, such as injecting molecular hydrogen – produced by highly efficient electrolysis with innovative electronic systems with particular frequencies and pulses – into the engine’s intake duct.

Other solutions, however, are more complex, such as injecting molecular hydrogen directly into the combustion chambers with special injectors.

Interestingly, many mechanical engineers are not convinced of the great potential of injecting molecular hydrogen into internal combustion engines to create innovative ecological engines. And also more reliable over time…
