The variable voltage source includes means for restricting current flow between the plate exciters to a minimum value relative to the applied potential difference, by regulating the repetitive frequen...

The rate of production of the hydrogen/oxygen/other dissolved gas mixture from natural water is controlled by varying at least one of: the amplitude of the applied voltage, or the pulse repetition rat...

The Water Fuel Cell generator uses at least a pair of plate exciters within a water-containing vessel, driven by a variable voltage source that converts input voltage to uni-polar d.c. voltage pulses...

In the Hydrogen Resonant Cavity Furnace, pulse repetition rate is matched to the wavelength distance between the two exciter plates; the flame is pulsed from a higher gradient level to a lower one (Va...

The voltage amplitude is increased only to the minimum necessary to achieve resonance, then maintained at that minimum and raised further from there to increase gas generation; this minimum correspond...

When the distance between the plate exciters equals the wavelength of the frequency of the pulses driving them, the back-and-forth movement of water molecules/atoms toward the attractive field goes in...

The spacing between plate exciters in water (varied via rack 80 and gear 81, manually or by programmer 69 driving motor 33) is directly related to gas separation rate: closer spacing increases attract...
established WFC
Natural waters with salt content (sea water) or iron/mineral content have a tendency to draw current; the resulting current flow causes voltage to drop and curtails generator operation, which resistor...

All electron-leakage-inhibiting circuit sequences were tested under actual conditions with distilled water; natural water with contaminants is equally operable since contaminants have no effect on sep...

The circuit of FIG. 5 is economical: extremely low primary voltage (0-5 volts) applied to winding 42 yields negligible current/minimal power consumption, while secondary winding 46 output is relativel...

Faster rotation of the primary winding's field produces greater pulse frequency; increasing the number of secondary windings increases the number of pulses, while increasing the number of turns on the...

In FIG. 5, a low battery voltage drives primary winding 42 of a rotating field (grounded at opposite end); as the field rotates it induces three pulses per revolution across secondary windings 46a, 46...

Resistor 60 (FIGS. 1 and 5), a variable resistor for fine tuning, is connected individually (60a...60n) between each inner (negative) plate exciter and ground; since it runs ground-to-ground it causes...

Applying positive voltage individually to each outer plate exciter and negative voltage individually to each inner plate exciter (rather than in parallel) eliminates surface leakage between larger pla...

Electron leakage begins at amplitude level L-1; as voltage V1 increases, at leakage onset current begins to flow and voltage V2 drops proportionally to current increase, until arcing causes a dead sho...

Varying the duty cycle of the uni-polar pulse DC voltage applied to the plate exciters keeps the pulse amplitude at a maximum level that would otherwise cause electron leakage, while the average ampli...
