Linnard?s hydrogen on demand system without electricity !

[ResinRat2]

Hi All,

I have finally been motivated to test the hypothesis that the Linnard Griffin electrolysis process runs endothermic and absorbs energy from the atmosphere that surrounds it. I am sorry to say that I have results that give an opposite conclusion.

I placed within a glass jar reactor approximately 100ml of electrolyte solution. Into this was placed three zinc electrodes and one tungsten carbide electrode. The tungsten carbide electrode and the zinc electrodes were not allowed to touch and the reactor was allowed to stand overnight to equilibrate its temperature.

Starting temperature ----- 72.3?F

I then connected the tungsten carbide electrode to the three zinc electrodes with a copper wire and the system began to give off hydrogen gas.

After a few seconds the temperature rose to 72.5?F and remained there for several minutes.

I then added another tungsten carbide electrode and connected it to the zinc with a copper wire.

After several seconds the temperature rose to 72.6?F where it remained for several minutes.

I then connected a third tungsten carbide electrode to the system. This time the temperature rose to 72.8?F and remained there for several minutes. Finally peaking at 73.0?F.

Room temperature was 72.1?F.This is in my basement, temperature and humidity controlled area.

So this tells me that my hypothesis that the system runs endothermic is incorrect. At least as it is.

Now, perhaps that will change once the fuel cell is added. This will be speeding the regeneration of the zinc in the system. I don't know yet if this would lower the temperature of the electrolyte solution or not, but as it is, the system is not endothermic. It looks slightly exothermic. So it would not be absorbing energy from the atmosphere as it is.

Once I get my reactor back and add the fuel cell I will do temperature studies on its operation to prove definitively whether it is endothermic or not.This will help give an indication as to whether the system can achieve overunity or not.

Thanks for your interest.

Here are a few pics of the new reactor.

It's BEAUTIFUL  --------------------------

Oh by the way, I got it running too.

Video on YouTube soon.

Thanks for your interest.

Also, Chris,

I decided to try your electrode arrangement for the first test. To me it looked great and using the fuel cells gives me a voltage of about 0.80 - 0.85V across the fuel cell, and a voltage of 0.775V across the regeneration tungsten and zinc electrodes.

I guess this is the voltage to shoot for right now.

Video posted soon.

Thanks again Chris for trying your configuration idea.  I would have never gone back and tried it if it wasn't for your work.
