Plasma Electrolysis by IronHead

think you might be too far and using more amps...possible. Experimenting with distance from rod might be worthwhile.

Voltage and field gap are first on the study list.

The ceramic glaze had micro-cracks... the rod was squirtin' H2 out all over... had to sleeve it.

Turtle:
I think you have a good point on the partial field argument but not sure of actual mechanics. For example, does a bigger rod make more h2? True, you would have burning just on one side of the rod with partial field, but it should last as long.
Anyway, look forward to more developments.  Its getting colder and need to refine the h2 heater

Turtle:
It is getting colder so I need to get busy on the heater, lol.
I think if you can replicate what IH made and run it on 10-20 watts with pulsating and reversing current, you will have created an efficient heater. The graco screen works so this is what I am going to use.
My engineer friend is not sure how to pulse and reverse the current as IronHead did. First is the pulsing which might be able to be done with a power transister.
Maybe IH can explain the setup. It would be nice to be able to run on mineral water also instead of great amounts of electrolites.

Hi just some info that may help

An RF signal at 13.56megs into an RF amp with a 250v DC supply will give you a chance to done what you want. You will need the high voltage mosfets with a  rating of 1500v and able to run on 6 to 8 amps   the RF amp will peek to peek at 1200v with low amps to start the arc then it will drop and the current will rise.

I am working on two projects in and around this.
I have seen the reports from the japs doing this stuff and they had all the gear and the technology but still failed to get any real output of gas.
DO NOT USE ANY FORM OF SALT IN THE WATER AS YOU WILL GENERATE CHLORINE IN THE WATER AND SOME CHLORINE GAS
The water can get up to 1200ppm of chlorine just from a small amount of salt
I have had years of experience with electrolysis in water treatment.

13.56 mHz?   Can a mosfet switch that fast?

Also, in the plasma application I'm working on, I want the gas burned, recombined to give off heat , thenceforth extract the heat to a thermal application.

If you've done well with RF HHO production, what for heat were you getting?

Thanks,

Turtle
