Steam Resonator design session v5: reasoning
(design note unavailable — Claude Code killed by timeout after 180000ms (SIGTERM))
Score 0.521 — 24.631 kg/hr steam, 0.0% of the heat non-ohmic
Cavity 1 × coaxial T-304, rod 6.35mm in 20.35mm ID, 49mm active (gap 7.00mm, 14.4 mL water) Drive 1000V, 30.000 MHz sequential switchover, 45% phase duty, 5% dead-time Amp restrict pickup 1Ω + choke 1Ω resistive wire → leakage 20543.06 mA Field ⟨E⟩ 122.8 kV/m, establishes to 91% in the on-time (τ_bulk 6 ns)
Drive shape BIPOLAR (cross-coupled switchover — field reverses each phase), 1.0ns edges → 5 odd harmonics counted up to 0.32 GHz Debye ε'' = 2.66e-2 at 30.000 MHz; water relaxes at 56.9 GHz → running at 5.27e-2% of the loss peak Double layer FROZEN OUT (charges 0.00% per phase, τ_EDL 8277.0 µs) — this is the amp restriction working
Heat budget dielectric relaxation 4.527e+0 W ← Stan's "particle impact" double-layer cycling 8.865e+3 W ← also amp flow ohmic leakage 8.865e+3 W ← the amp flow to restrict = cavity heat 1.773e+4 W (0.0% non-ohmic) VIC resistive loss 7.596e+2 W electrical input 1.849e+4 W → thermal η 95.9%
Yield 6.842e+0 g/s = 24.631 kg/hr, 1.332 g/Wh
