Abstract

The increasing demand for the petroleum based fuels and their less availability has lead to extensive research on diesel fuel engines. The combustion quality was improved significantly when use the better design of CI engine and also, improves the thermal efficiency and indirectly saving in fuel. So, as a supplementary fuel uses the HHO gas and the HHO gas was produced by the process of water electrolysis. Hydroxy gas (HHO) was produced by the electrolysis process of different electrolytes (KOH, NaOH, and NaCl) with various electrode designs in a hydrogen generator. This review paper presents the concern with the effectiveness of oxygen enriched hydrogen-HHO gas addition on performance and combustion characteristics of a CI engine with variable injection pressure. The effect will be shown on the CI engine of the brake thermal efficiency, carbon monoxide, un-burnt hydrocarbon, and carbon dioxide and NOx emission with the use of HHO and variable injection pressure.
