Definitions

  • This invention relates to an HGC, hydrogen generation chamber, installed on a vehicle for supplying hydrogen on the spot as fuel.
  • Hydrogen is a desirable environmental fuel which produces no carbon dioxide or air pollutants.
  • massive production of hydrogen depends on available cheap electricity supply for electrolysis and an efficient transport/storage system, liquefaction and compression difficulty apart.
  • an HGC in which water is used to react with molten metal to release hydrogen for use on the spot (for example in vehicles/carriers).
  • the chamber has a water infeed control system and a molten metal supply system and a metal sprinkler (for example, for aluminium pellets/powder).
  • a rotating device for example, containing aluminium powder or mixed metal powder in non-piercing bullets (i.e. bullets not lined or guided as shots) enables metal bullets to be exploded (with explosives) or dropped onto the water.
  • Purifier for the water used are also present. The purifier may be attached to exhaust water from combustion to provide water for recycling.
  • the HGC is installed on a fuel vehicle (with the necessary adaptation device for hydrogen as fuel.)) Pressure control pump/s for fluid movement to designated areas/chambers are present.
  • Figure 1 shows in perspective, a gas fuel vehicle 00, looking from the side view with the fuel supply tank (FT) 01 and the HGC 02 exposed while other parts are not shown.
  • Figure 2 shows in perspective with its key features exposed: the HGC 02, has a trough (WT) 021 containing water, and a metal sprinkler (MS) 03 with a rotating disc (RD) 04. Fluid valves (FN) 05,051,052,053 etc. are present for water and gas movement control.
  • WT trough
  • MS metal sprinkler
  • RD rotating disc
  • FIG. 3 shows in perspective, with its key features exposed, an alternative HGC.
  • HGC02 has an FN 053 leading to FT 01 (with feed ducts to the combustion system not shown).
  • Feed ducts 041,042 connected to aluminium pellet and sodium pellet suppliers (not shown) allows aluminium and sodium pellets to get in touch with water in WT 021 so that aluminium is in touch with water supplied by a water storage/collection tank (not shown) at high temperature because of the heat generated by sodium and water reaction.
  • a rotating disc or gun system ejects bullets of aluminium and sodium (in wax cover) into hot water.
  • a heater with temperature control is present to supply the heat for the wax cover to melt.
  • Outlet 06 allows reaction precipitates and unwanted water to run out of HGC 02 while FN 05 allows water to enter HGC 02.
  • a water collection system (WCS), not shown, can be attached to the exhaust pipe (not shown) for re-cycling via FV 05.
  • Aluminium or mixed metal pellets/powder e.g. sodium, calcium, etc.
  • Aluminium or mixed metal pellets/powder e.g. sodium, calcium, etc.
  • a mounting device not shown
  • a feed device not shown
  • a bullet storage system not shown
  • the bullets are released onto hot water in WT 021 via a release control device (not shown). (Used bullet case disposal/storage device is present but not shown.)
  • the hydrogen generated in HGC 02 is passed into FT 01 via FN 053 (with the help of a pressure control device, not shown).
  • FIG. 5 Similar shows a reaction chamber RC 08 instead of a hopper.
  • RC 08 in this case replaces HGC 02 and conveys hydrogen produced via valve 053 to FT 01.
  • Purified water enters RC 08 via valve 05.
  • Aluminium and sodium pellets are contained in a uniform rod 16 in small chambers (e.g. ceramics coated chambers) along the rod 16 with openings 10 and 11 respectively.
  • a screw system 15 (for example operated by hydraulics) helps propel the forward and backward movement of the rod 16.
  • Rod 16 has a groove (not shown) so that as it moves past the knife-edged pointers 12, the protective covering (such as wax) for openings 10 and 11 are removed.) (Empty separation spaces for the metals along rod 16 are filled with inert gas or hydrogen.)
  • Figure 5 similarly shows RC 08 with rod 16 containing one kind of metal such as aluminium: an electric melting system is present but not shown: instead of melting with the heat of chemical explosion or sodium reaction,aluminium is molten by electricity to react with water. In the case of sodium fuel, electricity is not necessary.)
  • Pressure control such as pressure control valves are present and not shown.
  • Water recollection, purification and re-supply systems for exhaust water are present and not shown.
  • the wax covering sodium is removed in an alternative device by a heating device.
  • Sodium metal with protective separation material e.g. wax
  • the beaded wires are cut by a cutting device (e.g. a rotating cutter) as they are pushed into HGC 02 by automatic device.
  • the beaded wires also have grooves covered with wax so that the wax is removed by a scratching edge to expose the sodium to water.
  • aluminium beads with sodium metal core is the use of apatinium beads/powder and sodium beads (coated in wax). Aluminium and sodium beads enter a collector/hopper via different ducts in controlled quantities (through control device) to meet water in a hot catcher to remove wax. The reaction between sodium and water produces the heat to melt the aluminium to release heat and hydrogen.
  • the HGC 02 is detachable via screw catch mechanism and a device exists to cap up the gas conveying ducts so that via a control system, the vehicle/carrier now runs on electricity supplied by a detachable battery system in the case of hybrid vehicles using fuel and electricity.
  • a detachable rechargeable battery system is present so that the vehicle can run on battery electricity with or without energy supply from hydrogen burning.
  • an adapting device for hydrogen burning is mounted to enable hydrogen to be used.

Abstract

Selon la présente invention, une chambre de génération d'hydrogène (HGC 02) permet d'engendrer de l'hydrogène de combustion à partir d'eau qui a réagi avec un métal, tel que l'aluminium et/ou le sodium, introduit par exemple à travers un asperseur métallique doté d'un dispositif de chauffage, en cas d'utilisation d'aluminium en tant que métal. Ladite chambre est généralement installée dans des véhicules hybrides ou de consommation de carburant pourvus d'un dispositif de détachement conçu pour fournir l'énergie d'entraînement. Dans un type d'utilisation de véhicule, la chambre de génération d'hydrogène (HGC 02) est amovible et peut être remplacée par une batterie amovible.
