- An evaluation of the effect of HHO in carburetor automotive engines in road conditions Jorge M. Rodríguez Matienzo Ariel Navarro Lugo Alejandro Domínguez-Valdés Daniel Monzón-Yepe Ingeniería HHO hydrogen road test oxidric gas Fuel consumption Hydrogen is one of the most attractive fuels for IC engines. In Cuba, as in other third world countries, exist a necessity and a great interest in continuing the use of olds carburetors automobiles, but reducing the gasoline consumption. Installing an electrolytic cell to produce hydrogen on demand as an additive to main fuel appears to be a good option. Using electrolysis, water decompose in hydrogen and oxygen, forming the so-called oxidric gas, ox hydrogen gas, hydroxy gas HHO or Brown gas. In this paper, an electrolytic commercial cell is evaluated and later, installed in a carburetor, 4-cylinders, SI1 automobile engine. Severalroad test were made, measuring fuel consumption. Results showsno improvement in fuel consume, as many cell manufactures claim. In fact, using the cell in a carburetor engine may increase the fuel consumption ought to the energy required to supply to cell. 2020 artículo científico 1815-5901 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=329170753003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3291/329170753003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3291/329170753003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3291/329170753003/329170753003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3291/329170753003/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3291 Ingeniería Energética application/pdf Universidad Tecnológica de La Habana "José Antonio Echeverría" (CUJAE) Ingeniería Energética (Cuba) Num.3 Vol.XLI
