The world needs a new source of energy, an unspillable source.

  1. Your question seems a little confusing.

    At last check hydrogen fueled transportation of any variety is a good idea but a really bad thing in a crash. Crashes with hydrogen fueled transportation would mean big explosions.

    If I understand correctly you’re talking about combining solar power with a hydrogen fuel. It’s an interesting idea but it also has the problem of being potentially explosive.

    I suggest you redefine your question, it’s really unclear.

  2. He wants to make the equivalent of a jeweler’s water/oxy-hydrogen soldering torch, but power it with a solar panel instead of plugging it into the wall. With this he hopes to propel an automobile. But photovoltaic solar panels are exceedingly feeble and you can barely power anything with them. And any sort of rocket or jet propulsion is a very inefficient way to power any sort of land vehicle.

  3. First, what is oxyhydrogen? If you mean a mixture of H2 and O2, then you have to be very careful, because it is likely an explosive mixture.

    If you produce H2 and O2 via electrolysis of water, and then recombine them via a fuel cell to get electricity back, this concept has been worked on by many companies for a long long time, like Ballard Power in Vancouver.

    If H2 and O2 is burn together, perhaps in a gas turbine, then you can convert the chemical energy to mechanical energy, like thrust of an jet engine.

    Sadly, electrolysis of water to give H2 and O2 is very energy intensive, thus, with current technology, solar panel on an automobile to drive this water to H2 + O2 and back to water again cycle would be so large that it would not be doable.

  4. It would be more like a rocket a very small rocket and I mean small; you already have the perfect mix of hydrogen and oxygen.

    Now as far as the car design goes it won’t work, you lost over 30% of the energy converting water into hydrogen and oxygen. Now if you using a conventional engine you’ll only get about 30% of the energy you put into it so all in all you’ll get back less then 20% of the total energy. So even if you covered the car completely with solar cells you couldn’t generate enough power to drive the car.

    Even if you covered the roof of your house with solar cell you couldn’t provide enough hydrogen to power a car enough to meet the daily travel needs of the average American, but if you took the same solar cells and used them to charge a battery pack you could.

OXYHYDROGEN jet ??? H2+O?

Do you think it will work if I have a 5solar panel 10 tanks generating OXYHYDROGEN???

Will it turn out to be more like a rocket or a jet engine

your opinions??
The hydrogen will not be stored it will be created onboard with the solar power

solar power —>electricity—>Hydrogen maker or generator —-> Electrolysis —>OXYHYDROGEN—> straight to jet

no storage

no big boom

If it was a car this would be my design

5 solar panels create power —->electrolysis process—> OXYHYDROGEN—> engine —> steam byproduct H2O–> radiator —> condenser–> hydrgen maker/generator redo process

this is not perpetual because the solar power input.

A perpetual machine must create no noise and no friction at all!!! and no heat

unless all of the energy is extracted and put to use its not perpetual
