How does hydrogen engine work?
A hydrogen engine works by combusting hydrogen fuel with oxygen to generate power, similar to a traditional internal combustion engine. Hydrogen gas is injected into the engine where it mixes with air and ignites to create energy that moves the pistons. The byproduct of this process is water vapor, making it a clean and environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuel combustion engines.
Why is hydrogen used in the space shuttle engine?
To fuel it and cool it
Can the car work if the fuel pump doesn't work?
NO....if Fuel pump doesnt sent fuel to engine...engine cannot combust...
Name the fuel used in cryogenic engine?
Liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen
Can you use petrol as a fuel in rocket engine?
Rocket fuel contains oxygen, which is not found in space. A rocket in space could theoretically work in space if it were to carry its own oxygen, but other fuels such as hydrogen are more efficient.
What fuel is used in a fuel cell automobile engine?
Fuel cells operate by combining hydrogen and oxygen without actual combustion as in gasoline engines. A catalyst separates the electrons and protons to combine the elements. (Some versions of fuel cells are high-temperature only.) Hydrogen gas
Why is fuel important?
Fuel makes the engine work. The engine propels the vehicle.
Can water be used as fuel in internal combustion engine?
No, water cannot be used as a direct fuel in an internal combustion engine. However, water can be used in a process called electrolysis to produce hydrogen, which can then be used as a fuel source in internal combustion engines.
Would a 1987 Volvo 240 B23F fuel injected engine gain more then 25 percent in fuel economy if hydrogen was pumped through the air intake?
No. There may be a slight increase in performance, but too much hydrogen can easily mess up the effective octane rating of the fuel. That fools with the engine performance - not always for the good. Timing goes wack because the fuel burns too fast and all that. And the engine will meter about the same amount of fuel even if hydrogen is included in the air stream. There might be a slight increase in fuel economy (because of the effect of the hydrogen in making the engine "run with more power" under the circumstances, but it isn't a cost effective solution to the problem of improving fuel economy. If the inquiry isn't about fuel economy but about performance, nitro (nitromethane) will work a lot better. But it will mess with the performance curve, too, and tuning will be required. Additionally, it burns a lot hotter than pump gas. That makes it hard on your engine.
Should the fuel gauge work with the engine off and key in run position?
Yes, key on, engine off, the fuel gauge should work.
Does hydrogen harm a car engine?
NOBUTHydrogen is an alternative fuel and with all alternative fuel changes must be made to account for the different burn characteristics to ensure the engine will not be harmed.
What is the diffence between a hydrogen fuel cell and a hydrogen combustion engine?
A hydrogen combustion engine is like the engine in your car. Hydrogen and oxygen enter a combustion chamber, ignite, and form a ball of hot vapour (steam) which moves a piston that rotates a crankshaft. Alternately a hydrogen combustion engine could be a rocket or jet engine where the burning fuel exhausts the combustion chamber as vapour (steam again) and impacts a forward motion to the engine by the mass discharge. A fuel hydrogen cell is more like a battery. Hydrogen and oxygen react in a catalyst matrix that allows the process to continue at a fixed rate. Like most chemical reactions this involves the movement of electrons to create positive and negative reactant ions. The flow of electrons is conducted to an electrical system as power. Water is still the byproduct.
