Hello Andrew,
do you want to swallow ions in the reactor, to see the theory of crispus
indeed, for that, it is not necessary that this arch, otherwise the produced ions are shortcircuited
having then become neutral by recombination, they can no longer initiate the vortex whose crispus speaks
but the arc has probably created a few dissociations of molecules
for good, the electrode plates of the ionizer must be as parallel as possible (no angle or peak): this avoids the phenomenon of "peak" (concentration of ions at these places causing arcs)
if we want to give reason to crispus and bob_isat (electrification ...), we must first of all ions at the entrance of the reactor:
given by a bubbler which is therefore necessarily wet vapor or other system
then, the few ions present spinning around the stem, creating other ions, and, becoming too numerous, end up making the short-juice (the éticelle, the storm) which concretizes the formation of ozone, molecule breaks: the endothermic reaction
the traces of cavitation at the start of the stem are created by the nebulization of the last micro-drops of water (steam not yet dry), and the "short-juices" are only created within the "vortex" (for weather comparison : from cloud to cloud and not from cloud to the ground), the rod being against (stuck or welded) the tube, therefore at the same potential
it would be for that one does not see traces further on the stem
if there are not the right conditions, the arc is not fast enough (in the inter-fer) can not be done, and it is only the ions that managed to get into the combustion chamber who can improve it
in this case, at most there is a difference in number between the H + and the OH-, the more it is likely to remain (as they tend to neutralize each other)
