HydroDrive - Steam Injection Technology
HYDRODRIVE`S steam injection technology reduces emissions by mixing steam with diesel, gasoline, furnace oil, heavy fuels, naptha, biofuels, emulsified fuels, natural gas, liquified petroleum gas prior to combustion in the external firing equipments such as furnaces, boilers and turbines. Steam Injection into INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES run with petrol (gasoline), diesel, bio-diesel, heavy oil, marine diesel, furnace oil, emulsified fuel greatly reduce emissions and increase power due to high density of steam. The MOVIE in the link below highlights steam injection in Saab 900 Internal combustion engine.
- GAS TURBINES
- BOILERS
- GAS DRIVEN ENGINES
- STEEL MAKING
- GLASS INDUSTRIES
- CEMENT INDUSTRIES
- REFRACTORIES
- CHEMICALS
- PETROLEUM REFINERIES.
The ANSWERS to the QUESTIONS as to what makes the pollution get reduced and increase the power is given below.
STEAM INJECTION enable homogeneous mixing of steam and fuel to enable the highest jet momentum by higher volume flow:
- to enhance the diffusion rate of oxygen
- to shrink the flame surface envelope
- to reduce or block N2 penetration into the flame structure
- to reduce residence time of N2 and O2 in the hot zone
- to reduce hot zone temperature
STEAM HYDROCARBON REFORMING within the combustion chamber results in SYNTHETIC GAS production comprising of carbon monoxide (CO), Hydrogen ( H2)and FREE RADICALS. Excited steam release more H+ due to bond breaking at lower energy levels. This synthesized fuel changes the KINETICS OF COMBUSTION!
