Posted: Thu Jan 15, 2004 6:08 am "I know its been said before but what if the resonance that is being described is in the water molecule - not in the circuit. Take the classic resonance of the child on the swing,or a clock pendulum - the cycle can quite easily be started and driven with a DC pulse It just needs a little kick at the same time in the same direction and the momentum keeps going. and of course if the kick is greater than the energy lost in friction etc the amplitude will become greater and greater. Take a look at Teslas resonance experiments when he nearly flattened a whole suburb. maybe the same thing can happen here..... drive the molecule back and forth between the attracting and repulsing plates at increasing amplitude until the bond lets go then the pause in duty cycle comes along to let things relax then the cycle starts again. ( I will have to find the references but I think there are instances of mechanical cleavage of a covalent bond being less energy intensive than electrical separation - I think this may be in the theory of vortex and cavitation water heaters) EDIT SEE theory of vortex and cavitation water heaters first 3 paragraphs of introduction CONCLUSION The analysis of energy balance of the molecules with covalent bonds shows the possibility of formation of additional thermal energy with the energy efficiency index, which exceeds unity greatly, and the experiments confirm this hypothesis earnestly. Simplicity and hundred per cent reproducibility of the experiments being described open a prospect for quick commercialization of the water electric generator of heat." additionally: WATER ELECTRIC GENERATOR OF HEAT Ph. M. Kanarev. G. P. Perekoty, D.A. Bebko, A.A. Chernyavsky E-mail: kanphil@mail.kuban.ru Abstract: the measurement process analysis of energy indices of the water electric generator of heat shows that there are such design of this generator and its such operation modes when quantity of heat energy generated by water exceeds the expenses of electrical energy for this process significantly. INTRODUCTION In engineering practice connected with ventilation system servicing, a phenomenon of excessive thermal energy in circulating air has been found. Similar phenomenon has been registered in water circulation systems with the devices for its active cavitations. In the Russian market, three firms (Yusmar, Termovikhr and Noteka) sell cavitation water heating equipment with energy efficiency index of 150%. Soon, an air heating device with the same efficiency will be produced. via: http://guns.connect.fi/innoplaza/energy/story/Kanarev/generator/index.html
