Abstract

This Paper present the steps to build an hydrogen cell emphasizing the need to use as a renewable energy source, being applied with internal combustion engines, as an efficient result obtained through electrolysis. Data presented in tables and graphs were collected and analyzed, both for urban streets and for highways. The tests in urban streets the vehicle presented 15.5 kilometers per liter of fuel (km/l), with efficiency of 38% compared to ordinary fuel, as well as on highways, made 18.9 km/l, with 33%, respectively acting at 60.5 kilometers per hour (km/h), the gain is due the fact that the system, which is directly linked to the generator currents and voltages consumption, implying that the higher current consumption, greater will be the gas generation. The results of the project show the veracity of achieving economy, yield and efficiency through hydrogen, allowing the possibility of implementation not only in vehicles but, in all varieties of engines available on the market today, and the substitution for other sources.
