Still need to learn and testing how to and how much to inject of the HydrOxygas. The proper Air/Fuel ratio is the most important and critical part of this, there is no guess work allowed because of the extremely high flame-speed ignition and flammability of the HydrOxygas.
See below relevant info: Gasoline Vapor Concentration by Volume: The minimum concentration of a particular combustible gas or vapor necessary to support its combustion in air is defined as the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) for that gas (examples: hydrogen, butane, propane, gasoline fumes, etc.). Below this level, the mixture is too “lean” to burn.
The maximum concentration of a gas or vapor that will burn in air is defined as the Upper Explosive Limit (UEL). At the UEL, is the most efficient – greatest explosion.
Beyond that, less oxygen is available for combustion. (and the excess gas, fumes, is wasted)
LEL for gasoline vapor: 1.2% UEL for gasoline vapor: 7.1%
LEL for Propane: 2.1% UEL for Propane: 9.5%
LEL for Hydrogen: 4.0% UEL for Hydrogen: 75.0%
