John Kanzius: saltwater can burn!

[gaby de wilde]

I am all for research to improve the efficiency of any system. My point is that efficiency of %100 is the absolute maximum.

Yes, we are trying to figure out what exactly the maximum is.

We will just shift goalposts and move the armchairs when we have to.

I have uploaded the latest report from Kanzius as a PDF file over here:

It is very scientific and summaries all the effects pretty neat !

So if we get a giant tank of water and submit it to an elctromagnetic field of 13 Mhz we can pipe that to our engine and run it?  Wow!  That is awesome!  Of course, there might be more to it, but man!!!  =D

It is my understanding that Spontaneous Human Combustion is caused by the "Wick Effect". For example, if you roll a pig in a blanket and light one end of the blanket so it smolders, it can burn the pig right up.

Lovely it brings back memories of when I used to burn unwanted byproducts of hunting expeditions, the carcases used to smoulder for days with a thin stream of smoke which smelled like burnt hair and fat mixed, I dont know how they would ever get the smell out of a room where this ("spontaneous" combustion) occurred.

As for splitting salt water with RF, it should be possible with tap water, set up a series resonant circuit with a pointed electrode on the HV end and use a glass tube surrounding the electrode to feed steam around it. This was published in an RF experimenters book over 30 years ago AFAIR they used 70Mhz  to split N2 into N + N which then recombined producing a nice hot flame the unit in the book was 70W output, I was going to build a 3Kw version but other things took my attention.

If using salt water HCl will be present as will Na0H, while they may react to form NaCl the reaction zone has to be  designed to ensure this,  Hot Na0H and HCl are very corrosive, stainless will be rapidly corroded, Nickel should be better.

    I would think there would be a number of dissolved solids that would form ions that could be excited by the rf.  I was also thinking about piezo electric crystals in microsuspensions being excited by sound freqs.  Overunity or not man needs a better energy storage system then big tanks full of liquid fossil fuels.
