Dave Sullivan – Team leader and Electrolosys
expert
Mike Whiteman – Teams analytical expert


Adelio De Monte – Professor at Fleming
College and is interested in the results and
performance analysis of the system
DSE Automotive – Automotive company in
Brampton owned by David Stirk which will be
helping us with the automotive side of things
and is interested in the end gains of the
system.

In today’s world gas prices are rapidly sky
rocketing from where they where 5 years ago.
Our goal is to create a system that will
convert water into hydrogen fuel using
electrolysis to cut down the need of fuel by a
considerable amount. This system will be
able to be installed into any vehicle with an
internal combustion engine or a diesel
engine.



Construction of electrolizer at DSE
Automotive
Install electrolizer into the car as well as all
other necessary devices such as bubblers and
valves.
Create the PWM device for the power supply
to the electrolyzer
Hand wind the toroid transformer coil to
combine difference wave outputs.





Install dc to ac inverter to power the PWM
Install Rectifier to convert the ac back to dc
Tune the PWM to resonance frequency of the
cell.
Create o2 sensor modifier which will allow us
to manually control the fuel/air ratio as lean
as 18/1
Create the mass airflow sensor mod to allow
us to match the tuned o2 sensor
modification.




Create analog readout display of current fuel
air mixture so we can visually see how lean
we are running it.
Tune all sensors to the optimum efficiency
according to how much hydrogen is being
produced.
Gather statistics of sensor settings and
performance statistics to do a performance
analysis on it.
In the end we should have a very efficient
vehicle

In closing, we have a project ahead of us that
will not only extend our knowledge in
electrolysis and other aspects of this project,
but we will be creating a brilliant device, that
if done properly, should yield amazing results
to help reduce fuel consumption in an
everyday vehicle. This not only be an
incredibly project for Fleming College but
may produce an end product that could make
major changes in the way vehicles operate
today.
