Don't forget that there is likely to be a fair bit of free Hydrogen in a
normal IC engine running on gasoline, which after all is a "Hydro"-carbon.
So if H is anywhere near a reasonable catalyst, then we are likely already
seeing Hydrino energy in normal combustion engines. [/snip]
Yes to a limited degree but I am still convinced that oxygen is the bane of
this reaction. Combustion is a one way reaction that removes the hydrogen.
If the plasma can be oxygen starved the fractional/ hydrino states can
expand over a wider range. I think a diesel like heater in the ICE could
bring a noncombustible mix of hydrogen and other gases up close to the
threshold of a runaway ZPE reaction and then the piston stroke would act
like the PWM in the Rossi device to compress the plasma over the threshold
in one direction then reverses to expand and cool the plasma back under the
threshold. My posit of an endless ashless reaction is based on a super
catalytic disassociation where nano geometry pockets of catalyst gas oppose
and disassociate molecular hydrogen or hydrinos - I don't think the
fractional states would be as acute as in a solid skeletal cat or nano
powders but there is no danger of damaging the geometry since they are
constantly reforming in a gas medium similar to bubbles in the liquid medium
of bubble fusion. IMHO the dihydrinos would disassociate/reform multiple
times giving off heat every time they reform to heat the gas and push the
piston back up.
