Cooking pasta with HHO

[hartiberlin]

Hi All,
something like this can be used to cook your meal without any pollution
in your room due to the gas burning:

Hey that's a really useful video, it shows that experimental fuel research can also be converted into home cooking
But isn't hydroxy gas a combination of both hydrogen and oxygen? Doesn't this then mean that it is extremely explosive?

It is not explosive, if you add enough air with an electric air pump.

This is not yet shown herein the above video , but Youtube user
Hollywoods7 has shown it and User Woodpecker
confirmed it.

I been doing same experiments cooking with hho myself ..
I have boiled eggs and scrambled them ..

Adding air to the hho does not change the flame rate speed.
I have been doing test by adding air also , all the adding air does is thin the gas ..
But the result of thinning HHO with air is a flame that has less heat , the  gas will
go further but less heat ...If you add to much air it will not burn at all....Tested and tried
I did not like it because it takes away from what I am wanting and that is heat ...

If you want to change the flame rate speed and make the gas less explosive bubble it thru
a carbon....I have tested this with a mixture of 1 tsp Lighter fluid 3 tsp of rubbing alcohol and bout  10oz of water ....
The hho bubbles thru picks up a bit of the alcohol and lighter fluid  and you pretty much have a weaker gas...it burns alright , will not burn unless you have air and it dont flashback near as bad as plain hho.
I did not like it either ...
In my setup I have 2 bubblers one which has a reset top on it and i never have any more than 1/2 liter of gas in any given area no matter if i am doing 1 lpm or 10 lpm  , so my flashbacks are just a little pop.
I would also like to add that if you get your tip hole size and number of tips and the right amount of gas calculated , you will have no flashbacks ..It takes a lot of tinkering with the tips but it can be achieved ...I am using 19 tips and can be used with a min of 2.3 lpm  and have only had bout 4 flashbacks  in around 5 hrs run time total..And now i think I have it right ..I plan on going up to 30 tips real soon .........

Okey thanks for the info!
I think safety is a little bit important when working with hydrogen, the gas in itself is quite powerful.
