How
The Trucker Cell Works

By adding a small amount of highly combustible HHO Gas (Hydrogen
+ Oxygen) to the fuel mixture going into the combustion chamber, the
existing diesel in the new mix burns at a much higher rate. You need
less
diesel to accomplish optimim combustion, you
save on every stroke of the piston.
Hydrogen burns nearly one order of magnitude (ten times)
faster than petroleum fuels, thus approaching ideal thermodynamic
cycle; and hydrogen has a shorter flame quench distance, allowing
flames to travel closer to the cold zones, thus improving combustion.
HHO Gas is injected directly into the intake manifold, as
it travels into the combustion chamber it acts as an accelerant on
the diesel molecules creating a highly efficent burn rate.
The Technology
The technology that the Trucker Cell is based upon is called
- Hydrogen Combustion Catalyst (HCC). The principle
of operation of the HHO gas fuel mixture has been studied for many
years by National Aeronautics & Space Administration (NASA). The following
is a brief description of how the system works: The Trucker Cell system
uses a process called electrolysis to break down water, on-demand,
to produce orthohydrogen /parahydrogen /oxygen gas blend (HHO Gas).
This HHO gas is then introduced with the air-fuel mixture into the
combustion chamber of the diesel engine where it acts as a catalyst
to burn long fuel molecule chains with a much higher flame speed which
results in enhanced combustion process in the engine resulting in
lower emissions, lower losses to the cooling system and exhaust gas
which increases horsepower and improve fuel economy.
Are there changes made to the engine?
No, the diesel engine itself is virtually unchanged, except
for the addition of HHO gas (hydrogen + oxygen) into the injection
system and the ECU, fitted externally to the engine. The Cell is installed
and calibrated automatically to maintain in-cylinder temperatures
and pressures that are within those of pure diesel operations, so
the converted engine operates within the designed limits of the original
engine.
Engine System Integration
The Trucker Cell components will not affect the base engine's
robustness and durability, a return to pure diesel in the event of
Cell failure is done on the fly with no intervention neccesary. If
the Cell becomes non-functional for any reason, the system simply
returns to a diesel only fuel.
Competitive Technologies-
The major Competitive technologies to the Hydroxy
Combustion Catalys (HCC) systems today are the Selective
Catalyst Reduction (SCR) and the Advanced Engine Gas
Recirculation (EGR). The following three definitions briefly
describe the technology. The competitive edge ReV-Systems.com has
with the “Trucker Cell” is its ability greatly increases the fuel
economy of any diesel engine, thus greatly decreasing fuel cost of
those engines.
SCR - This system utilizes a urea solution
known as Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to neutralize nitrogen oxides
Nox in the exhaust stream.
EGR- This system
utilizes high-pressure common-rail fuel injection and electronically
controlled air and fuel management to limit Nox.
HCC- This system
utilizes the on-demand production of orthohydrogen /parahydrogen /oxygen
gas blend (hydroxy gas) to act as a catalyst to burn long fuel molecule
chains to improve combustion, reduce overall emissions, increase horsepower
and improve fuel economy.
This chart will highlight strengths and weakness
of each system.

The benefits
that ReV-Systems.com, Inc. reasonably anticipates, including estimated
return on investment (ROI), will be reduced harmful emissions to below
EPA's Tier 4 Standards (as shown above), increased fuel economy savings
in the range of 10 % to 30 %, increased engine performance in horsepower
in the range of 5% to 15%, where comparable results should be found
in the maritime and rail diesel propulsion. ROI will generally be
in the neighborhood of nine to eighteen months *(This data is derived
from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s ratings estimates
on carbon dioxide reduction).
