Abstract

This paper presents the recent development of low temperature, fuel cells having high efficiency with better environmental performance leading towards an excellent potential as a future source of energy for all categoery vehicles. Electrolyte materials in the fuel cell functioning at low temperature (700°C) undergo interfacial reactions with adjoining cell components after continuous and extended operation. The Problem is that the present fuels are not renewable biofuels and their burning results a net increase of CO₂ accumulation in the atmosphere accompanied by toxic by-products. It’s aims at an experimental investigation of hydrogen blending by deployment of an Oxy-Hydrogen (HHO) booster in a two wheeler, which involves production of hydrogen from distilled water and blending it with air-fuel mixture through carburetor for improvements. Mileage test has been conducted at 1500 rpm and variations in performance like mechanical, volumetric, thermal efficiencies and emission characteristics due to deployment of HHO booster have been investigated
