i posted about the very old mazda hydrogen rotary powered miata in the other forum last week

look here for all the specs on the hydrogen rotary, and every rotary engine ever built, including nsu, chevy, john deere, mercedes bens....

heres the hydrogen rotary



"Mazda's HRX-2 "is powered by a hydrogen burning rotary engine and has a virutally 100% recyclable body structure"

so can you still tune a hydrogen powered car?? I suppose you can add boost? Then you need to be able to monitor and alter fuel maps, fuel pressure?, and would you need a tank warmer similiar to Nitrous to manitain a steady pressure?

I'll stick to good old oil based gasoline!

Power is provided when the electrons move from level of spheres. tHIS CAUSES ENEGERY. By splitting the atom u get massive energy.


electrons use energy to move from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, yet release energy when moving from higher to lower



They love to have 8 electrons in each sphere.


atoms are most stable with and octet of valence electrons, like the noble gases. Oxygen has six valence electrons (outermost shell), and hydrogen has one, that's why 2 H's commonly bond with 1 O.

and with the hybrid cars that use hydrogen to provide electricity, they keep the hydrogen in carbon fiber fuel tanks for durability....hydrogen is way more reactive than gasoline (becuase of its available 1 valence electron), therefore extremely volatile; you couldn't store it in a tank that could explode on heavy impact (like a metal tank)

Two hydrogen atoms with 1 electron make a static bond with another element usally from the gas section.


and if I'm not mistaken, that's a covalent bond

yeah i love science. couldnt get all the proper terminology down last night. It did appear that everyone on Nopistons was drunk or high. SOme even both <~~hence me. But ive read that along time ago just thought id post it up for people that havnt heard of it nah mean. I am studying Computer Engineering rightnow. Data Structures in C++ is ******* hard. My teachers is a "Dork". Not just a nickname he is a dork. lol Hes smart though but you can telll he has little or no social interactions with other people. First day of classes tripped over a chair , drops the chalk mad times and smacks himself in the face with an eraser. ANyways im taking physics and i love it. That is where u see all ure hard earn calculus classes at werk lol. IIGht if you have any new info on the Hydrogen engine post it im am very interested.



HEy did ya know that Glass is not a solid but a liquid. It looks solid because it has a low vescosity rate. If you look at old 40yr mirrors closer to the bottom you notice a thicker porting than on the top. thats because gravity is pulling the liquid towards earth. Just though ya would like to know lol
