Apparently then in our concentric shell design of five in series, with varying
distance between plates and also more importantly smaller distances between
plates as those plate areas dramatically decrease with smaller surface areas
incorporated with the smaller shells going outwards from 1/4 inch OD/ 1/2 in.
OD/1 in./1.5 in/ 2 in./ 2.5 in OD. The first inner shells are thinner then the
outer ones. It is virtually guaranteed then that the division of DC cell
voltages in series will not be linear, and then that the first cell in division
to exceed the voltage to enable conduction also must govern the conduction of
the remaining cells in series, although they may not act as the same voltage of
the triggering cell itself, because of differing plate areas and distances
between plates brought on by the non-linear concentric shell design itself.
It might be possible to find this weakest link in the series electrolytic
chain, that should be measurable by the differing voltages between the
concentric cylinders of decreasing surface areas as the progression inwards
ensues to it's smallest dimension of 1/4 in.
Perhaps the concentric shell design cannot even work, because it is current
limited to the dimensions of the smallest plate areas in series. But that one
part prevents the conduction of the other parts in series.
Now suppose that one part that essentially governs the whole conduction is
given special privalege. It gets the free energy available from the exhaust
manifold of the automobile engine, like a turbocharger. That section of the
series electrolysisor having the least voltage across it; whereby because it
will not start to conduct until after achieving well in excess of 2 volts or
so, this guy is holding up the whole parade because until he moves, no one else
moves. So we prod him a little bit, put him under high pressure and temperature
available from the exhaust manifold. Then we might find that the weakest cell
becomes endothermic instead of exothermic. Special measures have been made so
that the weakest link in the chain becomes strong enough to hold the total
action.
