A HHO car is understood as a car that has incorporated a HHO generator on board. Below you’ll learn about the interaction between the HHO generator and the car’s engine to produce what’s come to be known as HHO fuel.

A HHO generator is a device designed to produce HHO gas. In essence, a HHO fuel device splits water into its main constituents, hydrogen and oxygen, using a process of electrolysis. During this operation a direct current passes through water, which results in the separation of its two components, which are hydrogen and oxygen as we said above.

Opponents of the hho car maintain that the amount of energy you require to split HHO is far bigger than the released energy, but this is not how it works. Typically, the hho generator presented in most hho fuel kits is devised in such a way that it outputs the maximum possible energy with a very small input. The car battery provides this small input energy as a direct current.

What is the fundamental principle of a HHO car generator?

Basically, what happens is that a direct current passes through two bare ended rods that are dipped in a container of water supplemented with an electrolyte. This process produces small quantities of HHO.

The electrical direct current that is required is in the range of 1.5 to 2 volts, which is really very small. The power switch of the battery remains switched off until the air intake valve sucks off the suspended HHO gas. This process is automatic as it should, because the accumulation of HHO could be risky as it can be explosive.

What happens exactly between the hho generator and the hho car’s engine?

1. After adding water, you add an electrolyte, which usually is sodium bicarbonate.
2. As soon as the battery starts providing direct current, the water starts breaking into its primary components, hydrogen and oxygen gas, and HHO is released simultaneously.
3. At this point, the HHO travels into the air intake valve, and at the end it combines with gasoline and air in the combustion chamber.
4. Now there is a combustion of HHO, which converts it back into water.
5. Because there’s a simultaneous burning of gasoline, the temperature inside the engine rises to a maximum temperature of 500 ºF (approximately 260 ºC).
6. The cooling effect of water controls this high temperature and lowers it to 350 to 400 ºF (about 175 – 200 ºC). Over time, this reduction in temperature can mean a longer life expectancy of your car, another advantage of the HHO car.
7. At the end of this control of the temperature, which protects your car from the harmful effects of an excess of heat, water is converted into superheated steam.
8. The heated steam is then pushed towards the end of the exhaust stroke and it is converted back to water.
9. Finally, that water is ejected through the exhaust pipe and into the environment. The water is ejected as vapor because the combustion of gasoline generates enough heat to release HHO in vapor form.

In a HHO car, during the exhaust process, the water vapors mix with the conventional exhausts derived from gasoline and mitigate the pollution of the air. The atmosphere benefits are in addition to a boost in the fuel efficiency of your vehicle, which is the source of your savings on gas.

Until today, nobody took this technology serious, although it was first devised in the 1900’s as several US patents show. But as it is always the case, in times of need people take advantage of anything, however small, that can help them save on gas or anything else. The time seems now ripe to switch to a run car on water for gas technology.

Do-it-yourself HHO fuel kits are the most affordable solution for converting you car to run on water as well as gas and have a HHO car.
