hey Dave, resonant action is also explained in the Voltage Control patent (ending with 661)

Here is a collection of statements from that patent.

But, can resonant action be achieved with a typical submerged cell, or is there some design factors involved to make it work as described? Could there be a gap tolerance where the resonant action cannot propagate due to having too wide of a gap? Do normal injectors have a resonant frequency? Pulse jet?

I take the guess that th distance between the plates / tubes equals a frequency that at resonance the vic/choke circuit matches? So is there a calculation to determine gap distance and is there a desired frequency to aim for in determining the gap? and another thought, does the length/height of the tubes / plates affect the frequency aimed for in setting the gap?

The frequency matched to the gap does have to be a full wavelength frequency, it can be a 3/4 wave, 1/2 wave, 1/4 wave, etc.. Also during current restriction you will not have electrons from the coils crossing the plates, but you will have electrons from the SS plates them self crossing through the water and this will aid in the water splitting. Now as far as the water is concerned, Stan states that water has a dielectric value of approx. 78. This means that 78% of the water bath is non-conductive and the remaining 22% is conductive. Based on tests that I have conducted does prove this to be true. I wont go into full details, but I will tell you this, Stan says he wanted to "tune" into the dielectric properties of water (non-conductive 78%), so basically he wanted to nullify the 22% conductive property of the water bath. Now you have to ask yourself how you can do this!  ;)

Yeah I would think that all those things would apply. It couldnt just be one frequency right? I mean the electronics scan and find resonance in the range they were designed for so it couldn't be. Maybe resonant action can happen in a rang of frequencies. With that said would it not also depend on the voltage force being applied?
