Title: Metal seperator in a battery, advice
Post by: Hydro-Cell on December 27, 2009, 06:56:44 AM
Have had this idea but it needs 2 seperate chambers.

the idea goes like this,

one chamber with zinc in it, (anode). another chamber with stainless steel in it (cathodes)

fill the cell up with aquaeus solution of NaOH and add colloidal silver and colloidal magnesium (from linnards ideas)

normally the anode and cathode would be connected through the solution, since the silver gives the water higher conductivity for elecricity to flow it got me thinking. when measuring the voltage potential between zinc and stainless steel electrodes you should get voltage

could the 2 electrodes be seperated by a metal plate. so we have 2 totally isolated electrodes that are still in contact with each other electrically????

would i still get the same voltage potential between the electrodes??

AN interesting theory, but MIT has recently published information on ideal electrolytes, and honestly, adding NaOH to the water and using the configuration of metals which you do will behave more more like a battery, ..

and in my idiocy, I thought this was a hydrogen cell configuration, so your ideas are sound, however, if you do this, then it will not be a unified cell, and it can then be thought of as two independent series cells.  SO yes, I suppose, pictures help, even if they're done in paint.

Having a conduit between but not touching the electrodes is a design hallmark of many HHO cells.

it is a hydrogen cell, only it requires no external power to produce hydrogen.

are you saying then that the seperator plate will not affect its function??

It would depend on the material the plate was made out of.

I picture two separate solution in two tanks, with two electrode and a metal bridge between them.  It would then be a matter of the material.
