Linnard?s hydrogen on demand system without electricity !

[Super God]

Whew, I've been following this thread all day!  40 pages!  Well, I guess I should introduce myself here.  I'm also a junior at my highschool, but I'm not chemist.  I'm better with electronics and electrical work than any of that fancy chemistry stuff.  Once ResinRat2 gets a stable system going, I'm thinking about connecting alot of those units in parallel to run an engine of some kind, and use the engine to drive some water pump motors and get some AC off of them.  The hydrogen fuel cells are just too expensive to do it directly, unless I build one myself.  Even if the system isn't self powering, I can easily draw some extra power from a river that flows adjacent to my house, or just add sinc every once in awhile.  So it's good news all around.  So, how's everyone's progress coming?

P.S. - Would a bunch of plates lined together put out more hydrogen than the rods?  I look forward to replicating this as soon as I can get some funds, teenagers never have money

Hi All,

I remember this from the ELSA thread. Posted by member wizkycho. Could be a clever way to use the Linnard Griffin electrolysis system.

I am posting this with the hope that someone else will jump on it and try to develop a working generator. I already have my hands full so I won't do this one; but it should be a good and cheap way to exploit this .

I guess what's nice about this is that you can burn the gas afterwards, or put it through an expensive fuel cell and get even more bang for the buck. (lol)

Enjoy.

Hi Brian,

I never tried plates, so my answer is: I don't know for sure.

Sorry I couldn't help, but it sounds like an interesting experiment to try in the future.

Thank you for your interest.

I was thinking of taking silver or lead instead of tungsten as proposed earlier in the thread to see if that would be controllable or not.  Also, what would be a reliable way to measure gas production?  What amount of hydrogen and oxygen would be needed to run a small engine?  Sorry, I can't find these answers anywhere!  Have a great day.

It's all about electronegativities and keeping the required catalysts involved.
W = 2.36
Pb = 2.28
Ag = 1.93

Silver is a required component for exp13 replication, so using it as the cathode would prevent the Ag+ colloids from acting as an catalyst.

Also, what would be a reliable way to measure gas production? 

Meassure your electrolytes in fluid ounces or grams, and then run the reaction for 1hour and repeat messurements. Then you can change your findings in to whatever conversion unit you need.

It all depends on the engine and the timing of the distributor. Remember that H2+O2=H2O is an implosion reaction which requires modifications to timing. Those questions can not be answered yet with out experimenting first.

Good luck and thanks for reading,
