Hydrogen PS

["Thomas Reed" <tombreed@home.com>]

PS:

 

I forgot to mention that when hydrogen burns there is a NET decrease in volume. 

 

When most fuels burn, they produce the same volume of combustion products as the combustible gases. 

 

CH4 + 2 O2 ==> CO2 + 2 H2O  (3 ==> 3)

 

For H2,

 

2H2 + O2 ==> 2H2O (3==>2)

 

So the expansion due to the heat effect is lowered by 33%.
