    Tomatoes are 95% water. So maybe their intended use is for rocket fuel and not eating.

    "i'm prepared because i know i'm an idiot" is a very good line

  • Integza finally getting into hydrogen!!! I've been dabbling with ideas on making a fun electric generator out of hydrogen. The basis of the generation will simply be a weight on a string, through a gearing mechanism, to a generator. As the weight moves down, the string will rotate a gearing mechanism which will rotate the generator. In this setup I would have the HO fed into a cylinder via a gas check valve, the 'piston' in this cylinder will double as the weight. The weight will slowly drop while generating electricity, and at a certain level it will flash an igniter in the cylinder. As the HO is ignited, with nowhere to escape it will push the weighted piston back up. A light spring mechanism will wind the excess string up as the weight lifts, and the system is reset and ready for more. The last thing I haven't quite figured is safely controlling the flow of hydrogen after the arrestor, but if anyone can figure it out my faith is in you.
  • Hi. Can you make small car model (maby just 4 wheels) powered by hydrogen from water.
  • @Cretan1000
    A few points from someone who has made an oxyhydrogen torch before. 1. Your first setup with the gyroid shape had several issues. When performing a high current electrolysis reaction, selection of the electrode material is very important. I used 316L stainless steel as it was one of the most corrosion resistant. Even then, small amounts of the metal will still be destroyed in the reaction, so plating a thin layer on simply is not going to work, at least for very long. 2. It would probably be useful to experiment with different amounts of spacing between the rings. With too little spacing the bubbles of gas that are being quickly produced will displace the water from the electrodes reducing your efficiency. As you said, too much spacing will increase the resistance and make the device larger overall. 3. The voltage isn't something that bigger is simply better. Higher voltages increase the current yes, but also significantly increases the rate of electrode corrosion. Electrochemical splitting of water requires about 1.8v per cell. Round up to 2v for whatever inefficiencies you might have. Don't increase your voltage much higher than that. You could use a voltage and current regulator to dial these in which will also prevent you from burning out your battery. 4. As I'm sure you know oxyhydrogen burns at nearly 3000K. I'd be very interested in what materials you'd use and how you'd manage to actually use this as a rocket propellent

    I know a few ways to improve this design. step 1, rotate the lattice 90 degrees so the the plates are vertical instead of horizontal. the gas bubbles want to go up, and the plates are in the way. step 2 include a recirculation pump to forcibly pump water through your lattice, further pushing bubbles out and water back into contact with the electrode. step 3, just use salt water. you'll get salt deposits on your electrodes, and lower conductivity, but that will be way easier to clean off. it also makes it safer for a circulation pump. also lower conductivity means you can measure it and limit your current so you don't overload your power source. at that point it's about as optimal as it will be, so you can just scale it up. electrical resistance in the lattice itself means there's a maximum lattice size, so you're better off having multiple parallel lattices if your goal is maximum output. as for rockets... don't you lose efficiency because the water rapidly cools and loses pressure going from gas to liquid?

    theme for a video "what is the closest we can get to free energy" Two approaches: Cheapest option (spend as little from the outset) or Unlimited option (Economy of scale)
  • To avoid confusion, there's a difference between electrolysis and hydrolysis. Electrolysis uses electricity to split molecules, while hydrolysis uses water to break down molecules
  • @jeronomojoe
    Awesome video Integza! Chopping those lattices up into thin discs was very smart. I'd like to point out to the comments section that Stanley Meyer did NOT use traditional electrolysis as he stated multiple times in interviews and lectures. His designs were way more complex. Put stupid simple he used pulsed high voltage fields at specific resonant frequencies to break apart the h20 molecules. You can think of the cell as a type of capacitor with water itself being the dielectric. Later he designed water fuel injectors that used lasers in a resonant cavity to create a similar breakdown and discharge of energy. He also designed a special type of circuit called the Voltage Intenstifier Circuit or VIC which drastcially lowerd current without resistance by creating a choke of sorts with the back emf of the coils. It utlizes the same concepts which the Late Lt. Colonel Tom Bearden talked about with Scalar Potenials and scalar back emf. Keep in mind Bearden was a Nuclear engineer in the Army who worked on numerous Unacknowledged special acess projects or USAPs not a crackpot just another guy who figured it out. Stanley Meyer wasn't some guy in his garage. He spent decades of his life developing this technology surrounded by engineers and scientists in a lab.

    I really like the pace of this video! Nowadays (yeah yeah I'm old I guess), where there are shorts showing projects that took weeks to finish in under 60 seconds while they are yelling what they did at you in double-time, this is very refreshing. With your pace it's easy to follow and quite relaxing I have to say. I'm able to think along and I'm not having an existential crisis that I'm also a maker but my projects take months to finish every second - which I have with fast paced videos.
  • 1:56 not to mention that liquid hydrogen is so tiny that it can escape pretty much anything. Even NASA have some trouble keeping it in tanks.
  • @mozquito13
    Robert Murray Smith (in video 1256) suggests the addition of urea to the water to increase conductivity, instead of using sulfuric acid. As he points out, the electrolysis voltage for water is around 1.23V while that of urea is 0.37V, making for much more efficient hydrogen production. Urea also has the advantage of being largely non toxic, is cheap & readily available - it is used as a fertiliser - and has a neutral pH (neither acidic or basic - effectively forming an ionic liquid) when dissolved in water, so is far less corrosive to electrodes. Coupled with the use of stainless steel for the electrode material it should largely eliminate corrosion or contamination of the electrodes degrading the performance of your cells.

    "I'm prepared because I'm an idiot." That statement has more wisdom than all the worlds' governments and universities combined. People who think they know everything never prepare for mistakes or unforeseen variables. They charge ahead and get angry when it doesn't work. You, Dear Integza, have just demonstrated something that is rarer than Diamonds and White Holes: Humility and Integrity.

    Theme for future video : Coal powered Jet engine // Pinewood powered Jet engine Alexander Lippisch, the designer who help come up with the Me-163 Comet design also designed an aircraft called the Lippisch P.13a & b, it was envisioned to use a 'Kronach Lorin' ramjet powered by coal due to fuel shortages, seems like a perfect experiment for your channel.
