I have some thoughts on the whole process, that will help tie together what is happening.
To split the water molecule with the electrical polarization process you need a DC voltage force to pull them apart.
Stan says this may be a static DC voltage force, but pulsing increases the efficiency and acts as a dynamic force.
Amp restriction is not fundamentally required in the process, but to have [relatively] high voltage and high amps at the same time would imply that both electrolysis and the electrical polarization process are occurring simultaneously at a fundamental level, although both are acting inefficiently!
In electrolysis, about 2 volts are required, above this the voltage will act to perform the electrical polarization process, but your amp flow will reduce the amount of voltage you can maintain.
Amp flow will consume your applied voltage, so to maintain your applied voltage you need to restrict the amps. It is at this point when the efficiency of the electrical polarization process will skyrocket, and the electrolysis that is happening simultaneously will cease.
The key points i am trying to make are that:
1. DC voltage is required for the Electrical Polarization Process
2. Electrolysis and the Electrical Polarization Process can occur simultaneously, but both poor efficiency
3. Amp flow consumes your voltage force, restricting amps allows voltage force to take over.
4. When the above happens, electrolysis ceases and the Electrical Polarization Process becomes effective
Now lets look at a few things:
1. Conventional Deregulated Delco Remy Alternator, and it's Circuit and Output
2. Compare above to VIC
3. Rotary VIC, compared to both
First, the Delco Circuit

Look at this as a single phase.
This is a Secondary, and a Diode, and not grounded.
We can think of the Diode as the Blocking Diode from the VIC, really this is a VIC without chokes, and without a ground. The blocking diode keeps it DC just like we need it too.

The output of this is DC voltage, and amps, and since it is not grounded, there is no reference, so the DC voltage should be equal and opposite to the plates. Because there is DC voltage, this will perform the Electrical Polarization Process. Because there are amps, this will do it poorly, because voltage can't be maintained, and it will also perform electrolysis simultaneously, but also poorly.
So we have half of the VIC, but amp restriction would be nice, that will stop our voltage from dropping. Higher voltage would be cool too.
So how about we add some chokes, they will restrict amps, and maintain voltage. We should use two chokes, one on each side of the secondary, and we should keep them the same size too and wind them bifilar, because we really want that equal and opposite DC voltage to pull on our water molecule.
Lets put one choke after the blocking diode. Since our alternator is producing AC and we are half wave rectifying it, it means we are pulling out a 50% duty cycle DC, so our diode will also double our pulsing frequency too.
Lets wrap it up in a three phase system again, so we'll need some isolation diodes to keep our chokes from interfering with each other in the phase waveform.
That should look something like this:

We're still not grounding it, so there is no voltage reference, we should get equal and opposite voltage to each plate. Or we could ground it between the secondary and the bottom choke, and we should still get equal and opposite voltage because our chokes are the same length and wound bifilar.
Now we still have a DC voltage output, but we have restricted our amps, so we have eliminated the electrolysis, and the drain on our voltage. This should perform the electrical polarization process a lot more efficiently.
We can even use finer wire, and get a higher voltage out of it.
If we compare this to what we know as the VIC, we can see that each phase looks exactly like the VIC, except for the addition of the isolation diode, and we know if it was only single phase, the isolation diode is not needed, so they accomplish the same thing.
In fact, the components of the RVIC have the same reference numbers as those in the VIC! that means when he's talking about them in the Tech Brief they have the same function!
Now, our chokes are going to be chokes even if they don't resonate, if they did resonate, we would have a series resonance with the cell, actually we would have a double series resonance with the cell from both sides. Since I don't think the tubular array will resonate, I'll skip my ideas on resonance for now.
