Abstract:
This work intends to show the technical viability to use the eletrodialytic
hidrogen as source of energy to heating environment. A generator of hydrogen
eletrolytic was used as source of energy to test two types of heat exchangers:
One tubular which was made in the University and other convective type
adapted to use hydrogen.
Inicialy the convective exchange heat was tested with butane gas and
after that it was adapted to use hydrogen. From the results the heating rate of
butane gas was 30% higher than hydrogen rate.
To analyse the performance of both exchangers were studyed fowolloging
parameters: Variation the internai and externai temperature room as function of
time, hydrogen consumption, the ratio between acumulated and consumption of
energy during the heating process. The convective exchange heat presented an
energy efficience of 50% superior than tubular exchange heat.
The results obtained showed that there are great possibility to use the
eletrolytic hydrogen for heating environment.
