URGENT! WATER AS FUEL DISCOVERY FOR EVERYONE TO SHARE

[thermalenergy]

Hi sparks,

thanks for your input. I really like this idea: To increase the pop it may be necessary to ionize the intake air so that the whole mix is electrically active. 

thanks for sharing.

Hi Luc,
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned turning a sparkplug into a Magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) Thruster, similar to a Lorentz Force Motor, but using plasma instead, and accerating it magnetically. Instead of using a small center electrode within a ceramic insulator, how about using a solenoid coil around the plug to magnetically charge the core. Then the water doesn't need to get right into the plug to burn because the plasma will come out to burn it. The plug should have a funnel-shaped opening of course. Wouldn't want to cut a plasma whole right through the piston! Attached is a picture from the myelectricengine site, http://www.myelectricengine.com/projects/mpdthruster/mpdthruster.html .
P.S.
I'd like to draw and test some circuits, but need some free open-source drawing software to work in Windows. Anybody know of something like that?
Thanks to you all,
Joel

Hi my friends,

I have already tested  something else.
Perhaps many of you, already know that (I don't know), but in any case, i will tell it to you.

I use the always same type of spark (it is NGK 7811 BP6ES) and i will tell you this as an information.
So , Instead of (to make the experiment) the 100W /220V bulb (resistor) , i used a ballast (which we use for neon lamps, type TRL for L65/58 230V , 50Hz, and  22  Ohm resistance) and it worked with C1=1uF just good (I was not to much satisfied)

Then I tried to connect the 100W /220V bulb with the ballast (as a queue, the one after the other) and it did not work (absolutely nothing).
After this i put again the bulb and i made the test again by using now a C1 = 8uF capacitor and it work very good.
I tried it also with a C1=16uF capacitor and it worked much better. (but when i spraied water on it, water made a small explosion and then stopped, i don't know why , perhaps the amount of the water was to much , i really  don't know).

(I have to say, that unfortunatelly I have not a capacity meter, to measure the "real", exact capacity of the capacitors. So, when I tell you a capacity, I mean only the number of the capacity it is written on the capacitor, just thinking that it is true).

Finally I changed the 100W/220V bulb with a 150W/220V bulb (with 33  Ohm resistance) and i used a C1= 1uF, and It worked.
I made the same with C1=9uF and it worked better.
I also made the same with C1=17uF and It worked  very very good.

So I made a small video with this last job.

On this small video you see the 150W/220V bulb (with 33  Ohm resistance) working with a C1=17uF.
So please , allow me show you the following...

Thank you very, very much again,

I don't know... I like to learn...

video corroborating pressure = intensified plasma

Hi all,

I have just posted a new little video corroborating what others have claimed. Mike posted a great video showing that increased pressure enhances the plasma spark.

I built the small fixture pictured below and ran the spark from the on board system running the plasma circuit on the Bug.

The Digital video doesn't do it justice but the contrast can easily be seen. Enjoy the video and I hope it answers some questions and erases doubts and conflicting opinions re: pressure and plasma ignition sparks.

The video is at:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MP9CiEOEFY

Peace,

Greg

Hello Greg,

Nice handy work, it really is very nice to be able to see the reaction under pressure, thanks for sharing your test....

Greg if you have time could you draw one of your simple schematic's of your oscillator circuit with all value parts you used, thanks a million!!!!

Regards,

HV

This is Andrew speaking: Where abouts would the current limiting go in the voltage doubler circuit? The AC side or the DC side?
What type of current limiter will work for the doubler and if it is a light bulb on the DC side, would we need two light bulbs in series to be able to handle the voltage?
