الملخص
Research and investment in renewable energy are vital for a sustainable future to meet the growing global energy
demand driven by worldwide population growth. Dependence on fossil fuels contributes to environmental degradation
and resource depletion. Renewable energy sources, such as hydrogen, have been proven to offer a sustainable alternative
that reduces emissions and enhances energy security. However, hydrogen gas faces storage challenges and potential
hazards. Oxyhydrogen gas (HHO), produced onboard without storage, provides a viable alternative. HHO, a mixture of
hydrogen and oxygen generated via water electrolysis, was utilized in this study. The research aimed to design and
implement a dry cell HHO generator to supply a steady 0.25 LPM flow rate into a single-cylinder CI engine. HHO gas
was introduced through a drilled port at the intake manifold. The performance and emissions of the dual-fuel engine,
powered by Diesel and HHO, were analyzed. Results showed improved brake thermal efficiency and reduced brakespecific fuel consumption with HHO integration. Emission data revealed significant reductions in carbon monoxide
(CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and unburned hydrocarbons (UHC), particularly at higher engine loads. Higher HHO flow
rates were recommended to be tested to determine the optimal enrichment ratio for the engine's volume.
