Distribution of hydrogen gas (or the fuel gas mixture) is accomplished via 'quenching tubes' (FIGS. 5 and 5B), a conduit of discrete small volumes formed in an open cell porous material within an othe...

Introducing ambient air as a dilutent can create excess oxygen (itself acting as a non-combustible dilutent), which may produce undesirable NOx; this is mitigated by substituting more exhaust gas rath...

The gas meter control providing uniform delivery of the fuel gas mixture is driven by pulse signals generated by the distributor corresponding to each cycle of the engine.
established WFC
The quantity of fuel gas mixture introduced to the cylinder per intake cycle remains constant regardless of engine RPM, even though the rate of hydrogen production by the fuel cell must increase with...

Non-combustible gases (ambient air or recycled exhaust gas including water vapor) are added to the hydrogen fuel gas mixture to dilute hydrogen concentration, reducing the burn rate to approximate tha...

The fuel gas mixture produced by the water fuel cell intrinsically includes the optimum 2:1 ratio of hydrogen to oxygen, which must be maintained uniformly across engine operating speeds to control bu...

Shape and size of the resonant cavity (per U.S. Pat. No. 4,936,961) may vary; larger resonant cavities and higher rates of consumption of water in the conversion process require higher operating frequ...

Unmodulated hydrogen has a burn rate of 325-265 cm/sec versus 45-35 cm/sec for hydrocarbon/fossil fuels; the system modulates hydrogen density with non-combustible gases so the modulated burn rate is...

Per claim 2, the capacitor (water dielectric) is subjected to a pulsating unipolar electric field whose polarity does not pass beyond an arbitrary ground; at the correct pulse frequency this induces r...

The electron extraction process is maintained during gas flow-rate change by varying the trigger pulse rate relative to applied voltage, and it prevents spark-ignition of combustible gases traveling t...

The energy yield of the thermal-lens assembly is controlled by varying the applied voltage or pulse-train, since the assembly is self-adjusting to the flow-rate of the ionized and primed gases.
