Hydrogen powered lawnmower
The study and analysis of a hydrogen powered lawnmower are described. Most of the commercial lawnmower is originally powered by gasoline carbureted 2-stroke engine. The carbureted 2-stroke engines are characterized by high levels of hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter emissions. Des...
