Abstract

This article describes an important step in the global project of gradual transition to hydrogen energy, namely, the creation of highly efficient on-board vehicle hydrogen generator that allows recycle hardly used thermal energy. Authors proposed a new approach to creating a hydrogen generator based on the process of decomposition of water in an artificial centrifugal field. A question of the opportunities of practical implementation of creating a centrifugal hydrogen generator and its use on board the vehicle are theoretically considered. The article presents the results of calculations of the current processes, weight and size of the proposed hydrogen generator. Some conclusions are drawn about the possibility and economic efficiency of its use in road transport. The results obtained allow conclude about the prospects of the proposed centrifugal hydrogen generator.
