I have procurred and tested a 60 hz resonant supply to a DC water cell. This was in earlier winter months where I became fascinated by the end component which can act through the air; where these were high induction coil pairs of 60 H paired through air to a pair of 23 mh coils made as two spools of 500 ft ,14 gauge wire. Each of these used ~ 306 uf, a large value. The circuit could never be operated with 120 VAC input without a load present between the opposite inversely phased series resonances using these twin stacked coils of 23 mh matched to ~ 306 uf. Only 2.3 ohms would exist on each branch if the inversely phased series resonances were ideally obtained, which becomes the action under no load circumstances. To counter these initial problems a variac is used, and the rectified water cell chosen as 24 6 by 6 inch plates each separated by 3/4 inch water. It is here the cell is made as many of these in series and a variable water cell load can be put into testing by first chosing the end plates and then using a reduced portion of the 24 plates in series. It is found here that when the total amount of plates are used that the 60 hz resonant supply has a terrrible efficiency, but as the plate number used is reduced, more current flows through the water cell load, and the impedance or actual water resistance of the load begins to match the impedance of the oppositely attached balanced reactances, whereby the maximum energy transfer thorem then implies that maximum energy transfer then takes place by impedance matching. However even at this point quite a loss of efficiency occured, perhaps 25 %. For this design ordinary water works better then electrolyte water! And this is because we are using 23 mh/2.3 ohms for the resonant ballasting at 60 hz, and the cell that has the same resistance as the reactance of 2.3 mh at 60 hz would be the one to give maximum energy transfer. In this case I found that 5 plates in series gave this amount and by then noting the sum of those surface areas on each side, this then gives a guideline as to how much surface area needs to be employed for the case where the cell is made from concentric tubes at the same 3/4 inch separation of plates. I have now again removed these coils for use at 465 hz alternator frequency, which can give much higher q factors. I am again investigating the ferrite heating phenomenon, and will include electrolysis experimentation at this rectified frequency.Sincerely HDN
