Linnard?s hydrogen on demand system without electricity !

Hi Chris,

Just got back home a few minutes ago.

Yes, please alter the reactor to have two more legs. The zinc on one side, and the tungsten on the other is good. Let's keep the both hydrogen going into one side and both oxygen going into the other. This is great. Let's also add another connection to increase the overall electrolyte surface area between the cells. Not just where the water goes back in. I think we need a connection that allows undiluted electrolyte to flow easily between cells in the reactor. Let me know what you think.

I am starting to look at the Hydrogen/oxygen fuel cell now instead of the hydrogen/air cell. The H₂/O₂ fuel cell produces almost twice the amperage, and it
should give an even better chance at overunity.

We seriously need to stop the spontaneous galvanic ss/zinc reaction. It will cause havoc in the oxygen side of the cell if I go to the hydrogen/oxygen fuel cell because it will be producing hydrogen off the ss and mixing with the oxygen. I think going with zinc bolt/washers/nuts is the way to go. What do you think?

Potentially this can be used as a closed cell.

Keep me posted and thanks again,

Dave

I've been thinking about the current design and adding the two legs per half cell and my only worry is we'll be further increasing the internal resistance of the cell. I can do this easy mod, but I'm worried about it performance. There is another option though. I have sketched out something that looks like a cube made with pvc. It would still use 2 gas exits and have 4 terminal legs, but the cambers will all be in much closer proximity. In the mean time I can send you this design and if the PVC holds up to the hydroxy, I'll start work on the chamber cell I have in mind with cheap normal PVC. (I'll still add some clear segments)

I'm looking for 1/2" zinc bolts now... It may delay my shipping date a little, but its needed.

It seems to be exactly what we need, just called by something else.
I'll have to visit some boating shops next weekend, but If I can find
some "Nut Zinc Anodes" that fit 1" 40schd PVC, I'll buy em up!

I'm having trouble finding any threaded zinc online, let alone zinc bolts.

I think these caps should work fine... Lets just hope there is a size that fits.

Hi Chris,

The flasks you bought may not work well for the reactor, I am thinking there won't be much headspace and the gas will keep getting into the connecting tube.

Aspirator bottles would probably work better. If you can find those cheap I think it would answer your problems. They also have larger openings at the bottom for connecting between bottles. I will try and see if I can find some that are more reasonably priced. Custom glassware is very expensive.

I'll keep you posted,

Dave

I agree the flasks seem to be too small for our perposes, but I'll have to look in to Aspirator bottles as you have suggested. No new parts arrived today... Hopefully tomorow. In the mean time what do you think of the zinc caps I found? Do you think they will work for containing the zinc side of the vessel?

Thanks again,
