Hey Mark, Very interesting links (although I dont have full access to the second one). From: zeropo...@charter.net To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: RE: [Vo]:SPAWAR has yet to respond re simple error in claims of effects of external high voltage dc fields inside a conducting electrolyte: Rich Murray 2012.03.01 2012.07.02 Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2012 17:26:13 -0700
A quick web-search verifies that E-fields most assuredly CAN exist in conductive electrolytes… for both DC and AC conditions. Electric fields in an electrolyte solution near a strip of fixed potential http://jcp.aip.org/resource/1/jcpsa6/v123/i13/p134705_s1 Excerpt from Abstract:“Electrostatic fields produced by flat electrodes are often used to manipulate particles in solution. To study the field produced by such an electrode, we consider the problem of an infinite strip of width 2a with imposed constant potential immersed in an electrolyte solution.” Influence of electrolyte composition on the effective electric field strength in capillary zone electrophoresis. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8529611 and this one: http://eprints.soton.ac.uk/259274/1/PhysRevE_III.pdf I was going to include some piccys, but even though black-n-white, they were too large. There was one figure which shows the visual manifestations photographed from the experiments, with the theoretical model of the E-flds (on the right). It was very clear that fields were present in the electrolyte, as one could see the manifestations of the field-lines in the photographs taken of the area above the electrodes. Electrolyte concentrations varied from 0.02 to 0.08M KCl. I believe LENR typically uses 0.1M, so just slightly more conductive than this reference. Now, this experiment was done using AC, 100Hz to 10000 Hz. -Mark
