Intake Manifold
04/21/23 NASA Grant URC NCC NNX08BA44A 4
Purpose of Intake Manifold
• Will assist in premixing concept
• Determine if injection of hydrogen will effect nozzle performance
• If no effect is determine we will introduce – Hydrogen
– Silane

Dr. Wu Pressure Adaptor
04/21/23 NASA Grant URC NCC NNX08BA44A 12
Pressure Testing
• Will use Dr Wu pressure adaptor to determine if hydrogen gas will effect nozzle performance.
• Comparing past nozzle value with intake manifold and hydrogen gas set up

New ignition System
• Three telsa coils ( one for each spark plug)
• 13 V DC 1 Amp power source that is button operated
• All wire will be insulated and routed away from any flammable sources
04/21/23 NASA Grant URC NCC NNX08BA44A 15
New Ignition Source:Tesla Coil
• Allows for continuous spark
• Strong spark across air flow
• Resonant transformer circuit
