This should be of interest to Ron Wormus and any others who have high output equipment for RF in the FCC permitted range of 13.56 MHz.
http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/maney/mri/2008/00000012/00000001/art00002 As to this being way below microwaves:I would have been more surprised that 13.56 turns out to be an effective range for an anomaly- had it not been for the Stiffler SEC effect which is now going into publication. There is a possibility that this is related to the SEC effect but Ron Stiffler is not commenting until his report is published. Here is the abstract from the Kansius/ Roy paper which costs $45. I suppose that cost is how the publishers are able to give the inventors a stipend, so we should not complain about that cost being excessive- assuming most of it goes to the inventors. However, the cost will keep the paper out of the hands of younger experimenters. From the abstract: ...."NaCl-H2O solutions of concentrations ranging from 1 to30%, when exposed to a polarized radiofrequency beam at 13ยท56 MHz atroom temperature, generate an intimate mixture of hydrogen and oxygenwhich can be ignited and burned with a steady flame." That is the limit of relevant info from the abstract. OK - it is clear to me from other reports, even if it is not admitted in the abstract - that this process is NOT gainful, in the sense of OU- as many observers had hoped; but that does not make it 'merely' a curiosity. The usefulness of the technique will depend on how efficient the process is, when comparing P-in (elec) to P-out (thermal). One report which seems to have been accurate several weeks ago pegged the initial efficiency (before the famous Dr. Roy got involved in the project) at about 40% which is only about one-half of what you get with DC electrolysis. I am hoping that it turns out to be greater than that. Open questions: 1) why does RF polarization matter? likely answer: it prevents immediate recombination 2) how is RF polarization accomplished likely answer: a waveguide or geometric reactor of some kind that favors polarization ... any other questions come to mind?
