Using 12 SS plates stacked similar to this setup:
The 12 plates (11 cells) were slipped over plastic rod
with ~ 1.0 cm spacing. Immersed in distilled water in
a container evacuated to 5 inches Hg pressure.
The current with 12 volts DC applied was 2.0E-3 amperes.
According to Faraday's laws there was 11*2.0E-3*6.25E18
= 1.375E17 H-OH bonds broken with 12*2.0E-3 = 2.4E-2
joule input.
But, H-OH bond energy is 4.53 EV upon recombination,
hence 1.375E17*4.53*1.16E-19 = 9.96E-2 Joule, implying
a C.O.P. of 9.96E-2/2.4E-2 = 4.15.
