URGENT! WATER AS FUEL DISCOVERY FOR EVERYONE TO SHARE

@demios,

Very nice calculations.Yes resistor R1 is only for current limitting.This protect capacitor from high charging current.You very smart calculate inverter power for this job !!

But, for more practical result ask  gmeast to explain you.This schematic is only one from more similar.

For best result and good plasma you need enough time for testing every component.

@djzissis,

Dear friend from Greece.Water is not suittable for ICE.You must vaporize or atomize water,and in this state mix in air intake.

Thank you very much for try.

Best reg to all.

Hi Alpeko,

Actually we want the cap C1 to charge as high as possible.  We want R1 to have low enough resistance to charge C1 to full voltage in the shortest pulse time you expect for the highest engine RPM.  If it is too high a resistance then C1 will not get fully charged and if it is too low the spark plug will arc at lower ignition rates and you will waste power and destroy plugs.  Please see the actual charge and discharge RC curves from my VexUs circuit and engine.  The scope capture shows the engine turning 4,000 RPM.  The resistor R1 must pass enough current to almost completely charge C1 and no more.   It may be best to replace R1 with a choke (inductor) L1 ... but I don't know how to calculate that.

Hi Greg,

Yes I think that inductor is much better method then resistor.On this link is formula for calculate inductor value.

Hi Greg,

This is better link.

I have 2 small questions regarding Voltage Multipliers, as seen here:

http://sub.allaboutcircuits.com/images/03286.png

The question No.1 is: do I need AC or DC capacitors to make a Voltage Multiplier circuit (doubler, quadrupler,...)?
Question No.2 is: are these capacitors in parallel or in series? Because I need to calculate the energy they can store (in Joules), and I'm not sure if they're in series or parallel.

Thanks in advance !!!
