AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights the potential of water fuel converters and the simplicity of electrolysis for generating hydrogen. An electrical engineer praises the initiative behind the technology, suggesting it could revolutionize fuel. However, concerns are raised about the efficiency of electrolysis, noting that the energy required to produce hydrogen exceeds the energy obtained from it. The feasibility of using hydrogen for heating water compared to traditional electric heating elements is questioned. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the need for a cost-effective approach to using hydrogen as an energy storage solution.

I fount this site www.waterfuelconverters.com[/URL]. Electrolysis is easy, and finally someone is doing something about it. I am an electrical engineer and I applaud the owner of the company.

nseidm1,

As an electrical engineer, you should know that the energy in the hydrogen that you get out of electrolysis is less than the amount of electrical energy used to get the hydrogen. They want to use that hydrogen to heat water? And you think that will cost less than just using an electric heating element to heat the water? Come on!
 
Hydrogen a great way to store energy. If you could purchase the electricity during cheeper low use times and extract your hydrogen then rather than buying electricity at peak periods it might be feesalble.
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
