BURTHA HYDROGEN GENERATOR COMPLETE BUILD

February 17, 2009 by
Filed under: Water Fuel 

FOR THOSE WHO HAVE FOLLOWED THE BUILD, THIS IS OLD NEWS, EXCEPT FOR SOME FIRST RESULTS.

923CC/MIN 1 LITER/65 SEC (ON STAIT TAP H2O)
41.8 VDC
12.4 AMPS
518.32 WATTS, INCLUDING THE PUMP

3.158 L/M 1L/19SEC (2TBSPN LYE/GAL)
12 VDC
26.1 AMPS
313.2 WATTS
10.08MIL/MIN/WATT, INCLUDING THE PUMP

I’M VERY PLEASED WITH THE RESULT,EVEN THOUGH THESE WERE JUST USING THE ROTOR INPUT SETTINGS I USED ON MY KAREBILL. I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT MY BOB BOYCE CIRCUIT AND TOROID DOES TO MY RESULT.

    2. thanks as always. Just by chance I am using the same dimension on 1″ and .75″ tubing. I’ve yet to use a 3rd tube, maybe next time.

    3. 1″ x .095 , 3/4″ x .095 , 1/2″ x .065 . And sometimes I like to listen to different styles of music.

    4. to start, luv tha music n if anyone don’t, fxxkem! Nyt question is, can you provide me with ID and OD of your tubes?

    6. your video would be a lot better with out the music if thats what you want to call it

    7. jez o’ pete what is all that freakin noise

    8. I would be honored to help you any way I could, But this opens doors to new experiment, that will keep me quite busy. I do have to warn you, She’s an expensive bitch, And time consuming to build. But I think it was worth it!

    9. I use sodium, because it’s easier to get, I get it at lowes. But I’m told you will get a better result with KOH.

    10. you are pretty quick tonight !!

    ok one last question… sodium or potassium ?

    Nog

    11. No problem nograts. Glad to help

    12. ok so 2tbsp of KOH or sodium Hydroxide… because I think KOH requires less lye than sodium ? I am in the market to find KOH. I’ll go to a chemical place.

    Thanks Spike :)

    13. well, that’s double awesome then! your baseline has certainly raised this to a new level (as stated by SmartScarecrow).

    would you be interested in being commissioned to build another one to exacting spec? for replication purposes of course…

  13. bulldogge1232000 on Tue, 17th Feb 2009 9:44 pm

    14. I definitely understand using distilled water and lye or KOH, To make it more reproducable. I used 2 tbsp lye/gal (Roebic drain opener)100% pure lye.

    Spike

  14. nogarats on Tue, 17th Feb 2009 9:44 pm

    15. I agree with SmartScarecrow, having a constant base reference for electrolyte would be good. As if you would indicate how much (weight) of lye (and what type) for how much water. So we all could get some kind of a reference.

    Superb work Spike !!

    16. I definitely understand were you are coming from, But you got remember, I’m a Stan Meyers fan. With some Bob Boyce influences as well.

    And by the way, Dropping the return threw 2 inches of scotch bright, Does help with those bubbles.

    17. Strait grunt power, No PWM. But I can’t wait to see what it looks like with the PWM. In fact, I’m working on mounting my circuit, coil, And inverter now.

    18. spike!
    sweet job man.

    those numbers at the end with the tap water only – is that with or without your new PWM?

  18. SmartScarecrow on Tue, 17th Feb 2009 9:44 pm

    19. well, the tap water thing dont impress me much … where I am, the tap water has a much higher volume of disolved solids in it than the very weak mix of distilled water and KOH I normally use for experimentation … I prefer to select my own chemical cocktail instead of leaving it to the whims of the water authority … this way, any results I obtain are repeatable any time, any where … tap water is a moving target …

  19. bulldogge1232000 on Tue, 17th Feb 2009 9:44 pm

    20. Yes, you read correctly. And yes, I ran the experiment more than once. I even used different multimeters. But I told you I would do well in efficiency, You still got me on volume.

    The thing is, I’m going to be experimenting with strait tap H2O with this cell. And those numbers need a lot of work.

    21. did I read properly 10 mmw ??? I assume you ran the numbers more than once ??? if this is for real, you have set the bar very high indeed … we may have to re-examine the physics of things as I was of the impression that we were “over unity” at somewhere between 7.5 and 8 mmw …

Tell me what you're thinking...
