The Website – Considering New Content
Nov 16th
Frankly I’m not quite sure of what direction to take waterfuelconverters.com. The current status of the website is excellent. By far the vast majority of the website is W3C compliance html 4.01 code. This is good. The website is scemantically correct and high accessible. Because of this the website is well indexed in Google. It shows up alot on page 1, and in particular it shows up at the top for “hydrogen fuel enhancement”. So overall the primary keywork that I have interest in has been targeted and achieved. My main interest is hydrogen fuel enhancement, and I am findable, and locatable by that keyword.
I feel the introductory paragraph of the website is targeted well. It provides access to direct links to journal articles that deal with the topic of the website. Click on the consulting picture and you will get an attractive popup, at the bottom of the website, that introduces the consulting services that I am interested in providing.
While I should update pages, in particular the explanation of Brown’s Gas, HHO, oxyhydrogen and hydrogen I find myself not pressued to do so. I want to, but I’m so tired at the end of the day, after work, that I consistently put it off. I think its ok for now; its not horribly off base. Overall the content is still up to date, and most likely the vasy majority of companies on the industry page are still available via the listed websites.
I have been blogging alot lately, and will pick up the website again eventually. Its a matter of when not if.
Hydrogen Fuel Analysis
Jul 27th
In chemistry, oxygen does not contribute energy to chemical reactions, and its main role is the facilitation of combustion. Considering this, Oxy-Hydrogen, Brown’s Gas, and Pure Hydrogen all have the exact same energy content on a mole per mole basis. Given the 1’st and 2′nd laws of electrolysis, energy in is always greater than energy out, why use one Hydrogen Fuel over another?
Pure Hydrogen
The beauty of pure hydrogen is that it can be substantially pressurized to over ten thousand [10,000] psi, which makes it a suitable fuel for tanking, storage, and distribution. Carbon nano-tube based materials, and potentially high strength alloys, appear to be the future of tanking.
Oxy-Hydrogen
Oxy-Hydrogen can be produced from tanked hydrogen and oxygen gases for torch application. Doing so will allow for the maximum potential of efficient energy recovery from the hydrogen. The more accurate the 2:1 ratio of hydrogen versus oxygen respectively, the more efficient the combustion of the hydrogen and oxygen into water and energy.
Brown’s Gas
Brown’s Gas can only be produced in a common ducted electrolyzer. The most efficient common ducted electrolyzer design is series cell parallel plate. By not separating the product hydrogen and oxygen gases efficiency is improved; when hydrogen is in the presence of oxygen, immediately after electrolytic production, the formation of diatomic hydrogen and oxygen formation is accompanied by subsequent structures of increased energy content. This accounts for the increasingly efficient electrolytic reaction observed in series cell common ducted electrolyzers.
