You are right. The effect is more likely to show up on the smaller
system, which uses 0.25" plates. It won't sharpen the edge, but
rather smooth it and also tend to reduce the width. But the plates
are too thin to show much of a "V" due to the edge effect. They wear
through too fast.
Mike,
True there is going to be some edge effect. But thats not the bulk of the
current. When you place 2 flat conductors next to each other with an
insulator in between you have a capacitor. And the electrostatic field
covers the entire surface of both conductors connecting them with a
constant supply of ions being generated between them. With the mechanical
stirring sweeping the ions away as soon as they are formed. This method
allows for a highly ionic solution to be made quickly. The beauty of using
plates as your electrodes is the electrostatic field is larger because more
surface area is aligned.
