Water molecules are broken down into hydrogen and oxygen gas atoms in a capacitive cell by a polarization and resonance process dependent upon the dielectric properties of water and water molecules. The gas atoms are thereafter ionized or otherwise energized and thermally combusted to release a degree of energy greater than that of combustion of the gas in ambient air.

Claims

1. In an apparatus for obtaining the release of a gas mixture including hydrogen and other dissolved gases entrapped in water, from water, the improvement consisting of a resonant electronic circuit in operative relationship with the water in which the dielectric property of water determines the resonance of the circuit.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 in which the resonant circuit includes a resonant charging choke.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 in which water is included as a dielectric between conductive members that form a capacitor in the resonant circuit.

4. A method of obtaining thermal energy from water, consisting of:

(A) providing a capacitor, within which water is included as a dielectric, in a resonant charging choke circuit that includes an inductance in series with the capacitor;
(B) subjecting the capacitor to a pulsating, unipolar electric field in which the polarity does not pass beyond an arbitrary ground, whereby the water molecules within the capacitor are subjected to a charge of the same polarity;
(C) further subjecting the water in said capacitor to said pulsating electric field to achieve a pulse frequency such that the pulsating electric field induces a resonance within the water molecule;
(D) continuing the application of the pulsing frequency to the capacitor after resonance occurs so that the energy level within the molecule is increased in cascading incremental steps in proportion to the number of pulses;
(E) maintaining the charge of said capacitor during the application of the pulsing field, whereby the co-valent electrical bonding of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms within said molecules is destabilized, such that the force of the electrical field applied within the molecule exceeds the bonding force of the molecule, and hydrogen and oxygen atoms are liberated from the molecule as elemental gases;
(F) collecting said hydrogen and oxygen gases, and any other gases that were formerly dissolved within the water
(G) subjecting the collected gas mixture to a pulsating, polar electric field whereby electrons of the gas atoms are distended in their orbital fields by reason of their subjection to electrical polar forces, at a frequency such that the pulsating electric field includes a resonance with respect to an electron of the gas atom;
(H) cascading said gas atoms with respect to the pulsating electric field such that the energy level of the resonant electron is increased in cascading incremental steps;
(I) ionizing said gas atoms;
(J) subjecting the ionized gas atoms to electromagnetic wave energy having a predetermined frequency to induce a further election resonance in the ion, whereby the energy level of the electron is successively increased;
(K) extracting further electrons from the resonating ions while such ions are in an increased energy state to destabilize the nuclear and electron configuration of said ions; and
(L) subjecting the destabilized ions to thermal ignition.

5. The apparatus of claim 2 in which water is included as a dielectric between conductive members that form a capacitor in the resonant circuit.

6. An apparatus in accordance with claim 1 or claim 2 or claim 3 or claim 5 in which the gas mixture released is collected and utilized as a source of thermal energy, and including further successively interconnected:

(A) means for collecting the gas mixture released in the apparatus;
(B) means for providing a pulsating, polar electric field to the gas mixture, whereby electrons of the gas atoms are distended in their orbital fields by reason of their subjection to electrical polar forces, at a frequency such that the pulsating electric field induces a resonance with respect to an electron of the gas atom; and the energy level of the resonant electron is increased in cascading, incremental steps; and
(C) means for providing a further electric field to ionize said gas atoms;

said further means being connected to an electromagnetic wave energy source for subjecting the ionized gas atoms to wave energy of a predetermined frequency to induce a further election resonance in the ion, whereby the energy level of the electron is further successively increased; and
(D) an electron sink for extracting electrons from the resonanting ions while such ions are in an increased energy state to destabilize the nuclear and electron configuration of said ions;
(E) a control means for directing particle flow in a continuous manner through the electric fields, wave energy source and electron sink to a final orifice at which the destabilized ions exit from the apparatus; and
(F) a terminal orifice at which the said ions exit from the apparatus.

7. An apparatus in accordance with claim 1 or claim 2 or claim 3 or claim 5 including means for collecting the gas mixture released from the water.

8. An apparatus in accordance with claim 7 including means for directing the gas mixture to a combustion locus.

9. The apparatus of claim 8 in which a flame is produced at the combustion locus.

10. The apparatus of claim 8 in which an explosion is produced at the combustion locus.

11. The apparatus of claim 8 in which the combustion locus is in an automobile.

12. The apparatus of claim 8 in which the combustion locus is in a jet engine.
