HYDROGEN REGENERATION INTERNAL COMBUSTION SYSTEM
HYDROGEN REGENERATION INTERNAL COMBUSTION SYSTEM
Idea Description
My son has a patent pending on a new and innovative design. It creates a closed-loop system to use water to power an internal combustion engine. It has two main parts: electrolysis unit in the front separates hydrogen and the oxygen from water; and, a cooling unit to take the exhaust gas (water vapor); compress it; then cool it into a liquid where it can be used again by the electrolysis unit. First prototype, PVC pipe and scrap metal, worked. His is now in 3rd yr engineering school. Engineering professor, former mechanical engineer with Ford Mtr. says it will work.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
Complete building the new upgrade R&D prototype and get certified in independent testing lab. At his request, I am establishing a non-profit foundation into which the proceeds of the commercialization will ensure that the patent is protected and the innovation is available at a reasonable and affordable price to the world for energy independence. He has already refused multiple millions to sell out.
Vote for it now.
Kevin has taken care of both those situations. In the philosophy of science terms: I guess he proved that there is a theoretical maximum efficiency - that is it is only a theory - not a fact thanks
Kevin's professor says, in part: I was a product design engineer and designer at Ford Motor Company ... Therefore, given my background and knowledge of the basic requirements on the operation of internal combustion engines, it is my considered opinion that there is every reason to believe that Kevin’s system should be viable, efficient, and economic to produce. In addition, once the mechanics of modifications of different types of internal combustion engines (for example, stationary or mobile; single or multiple cylinders; two or four cycle; etc.) the system appears to be very adaptable to mass production that would substantially reduce the price and deliverability of the system to different markets. my doctorate is in anthropology, therefore, I have no basis to comment on his qualific…moreations. however, I am involved in a number of energy related projects, both conventional and alternative (like biodiesel) so, I do understand part of the technological innovation that Kevin has created. thanks for your continued interest in this project, maybe we can collaborate at some time on our shared mutual interest after the first of the month, we might have another major break through in alternative energy systems ... all we can do is hope for the best for our shared world. thanks again
In brief response...the exhaust stroke does not have a spark so the mixture will clear out just like any other combusion source (gas or current hydrogen uses); the system is not designed to send water through the combustion process - it is is separated in the form of a gas - (similar to current uses of propane or even CNG); there are even some cars out there now with a switch that goes from hydrogen to gas - so that is not a technical problem; and, the freezing of the water mixture is no problem either - like up north now, use heaters or additives or whatever to keep it from freezing - we are looking at this also from the point of view of it working on aircraft above 30,000 - were water freezes. thanks for the questions and please let me know if this answers yours - the more questions we…more get the better the system design will improve
Excellent comment: in our larger R&D budget, working with the good folks at DOE alternative energy lab in Colorado, we are working up the multiple applications that Kevin's innovation will enable: Task 4. Internal Combustion Engine Application Analysis (*1; *2; *3) Task 4.1 Stationary Applications Task 4.2 Mobile Applications Task 4.3 Single cylinder engines applications Task 4.4 Multiple cylinder applications Task 4.5 Identification of potential additional applications This analysis is in anticipation of the commercialization phase of the overall project. And, as I have noted before, Kevin is already looking at applications for airplanes - but, as his father, I have to bring him back to earth to get the first prototype built. thanks again
thanks again!! without getting into the proprietary aspects of the invention (subject to Patent Pending stuff) the answer is YES! like you, Kevin is into high performance stuff - the test engine has the capacity to do both "regular power" for us Elderly folks and it has the capacity to switch to what you refer to as forced induction the key is the proprietary system he has invented to meet differing demands of different injection systems for energy to power the engine excellent question we appreciate all the help
This is the type of innovative process and product we need for a sustainable environment and it will also be a major asset in weaning the USA from foreign oil sources. Big military benefits, also. Go for it!! Tom Pearson May 12, 2008
