Well, the electrostatic charge that a dropplet of water can carry is very small so when it contacts a conducting material, so of it's charge will move to the conductive material (only if the material has oposite charge), and yes, if grounded then the effect (lost of charge is greater).

I have a feeling that if we replaced the water with little metal particles in the Kalvin generator, we would get the same self charging effect.

now I ask: where is the energy coming from? The Answer starts with a G

Earths voltage gradient?

Instead of using steam, try an ultrasonic fogger.

i like this idea.. the way i see it heat may expand water into higher states but would a heat state be a chaos/iradict state.. a cold expanded fog state might be more receptive to voltage?

Meyers sparkplug creates small droplets by pressure, this fogger is practical the same thing and easier to experiment with.

John,  

Have you measured the capacitance of the bifilar without connection to the secondary?

I haven't seen this measured value yet.  It is quite important to know what it is.

Could you post the measured values of the bifilar  in "aiding" connection and another in "opposing" connection?
I would expect probably minimal capacitance in the opposing connection, but it would be good to know anyway.



Has anyone tried driving this Vic at the resonate freq of the bifilar choke?

EDIT: It might be more likely that the resonate freq of one bobbin slot of the bifilar is the correct freq to drive this.

John has gone fishing again , will there be any fishes left in the ocean after John ? Who knows ...

I want to throw some fuel to the injector design. What if the vortex from the injector geometry helps the air inlet to a positive charge? I think about the GEET engine and what happens there with the counter vortices. Check out the Hilsch tube.

WARNING !!!

The utmost care should be practiced in handling the stainless steel wire.  Any kink will create a weak point that may result in a wire break.

Another broke wire leads to another scraped choke, primary, and tap wind.  Damn!!!!  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10
O. K. I'll start again.  
More progress reports to come.

John,  how sharp was the kink in the wire that caused the breakage?

The reason I ask is, I firmly believe the choke wire should be twisted together
and I'm worried about trying to twist a long length of wire and scrapping it.

I'm not sure how many twists per inch to try before bend radius of the wire comes into play.


It's hard to decipher this from the description in the tech brief that the choke is wound this way,
but there are a couple reasons to have the bifilar as a twisted pair.

1.  It increases the capacitance, therefore the cell/injector variance has less of an effect on the resonance of the choke.

2.  When they are wound together the mechanical vibration is reduced from the magnetic
     attraction/repulsion created in the transformer.


Dankie, have you tried twisting your wire with any success?

Thanks,
Mike
