Plasma Ignition | Plasma Jet Ignition

[heysoundude]

The capacitor is important to collect the energy that's used in the plasma event, but it's really the diode that's key to making it happen.

I've not tried water injection or HHO yet (and I've just found some good information on HHHN/NH3) because I'm looking to get plasma happening on mine first, but there's little doubt in my mind water contributes to higher efficiency/cleaner ICEs and diesels.

heysoundude, that's just too bad. I am now too old and lazy to 'diy' I could be the most ancient in this forum,having spent over 5 decades of electronics, starting with vacuum tube amps, using tubes such as the 6L6GC/EL34/5U4, etc. to arduinos. Like John Bedini who worked with KT-88 and perfected his audio amp with the highest standard of excellence. All I did was purchased the parts and assembled the kit. JB even made his own output transformer. Imagine, using positive feedback!

He has made a big impact on me that I will hang his picture on my workshop wall together with Tesla and Marcel Vogel.

I am still hopeful that someone will develop a 'plug n play' device, you'll never know. I saw some videos that claim to duplicate plasma ignition with the addition of a single, HV, low value capacitor. Of course, I am not fully convinced but I'll try it when I feel to experiment on it.

Q: Is the invention on h2ge.com applicable on diesel engines? The inventors are vague about this.

[heysoundude]

Buy Aaron's book package. You'll soon see why there is no plug-n-play solution.

Auto manufacturers aren't mandated by governments to install it at the factory because it would cut into tax monies earned from the oil industry, and all 3 of those parties and their employees like their jobs and their power. Trouble is, we're coming to a crossroads, a decision point about maintaining that status quo on this planet, or doing things differently so the planet won't kill us. (we probably couldn't get our acts together quickly enough to get ourselves off the planet before it does so)

And quite a few people have even run gasoline generators with diesel fuel with the plasma ignition just to prove the point.

Good day, sir, you are the inventor of plasma ignition? Congratulations! I have several questions about plasma ignition, if you don't mind. Q: is there a 'plug n play' device for non-diyer's? Does that mean plasma ignition can be used on compression ignition? I guess not. When the time will come when water/gasoline will be used worldwide will be the demise of the diesel engine. It will also make the eengine quasi-obsolete. This will be the greatest revolution in the automotive and oil industry. Nice meeting you, Aaron Murakami, sir.

(I am still in the dark on how plasma ignition work. Further re-reading the thread is required). I hope someone will come up with a complete device, ready for installation.

Hi Nuvists,




It can be used with any fuel that is spark ignited in the engine such as gasoline, alcohol, L.P., nitro-methane, ammonia, etc. Walt Jenkins can even burn water with plasma ignition. Check out his web site here. https://www.h2ge.com/

Gary Hammond, your link floored me, I am still dazed after reading the site. Caught me with my pants down. Today is not April 1st, right?

I thought that anybody who could make a vehicle run on water will be visited by the MIB. That's a myth, then. WJ will disrupt the oil industry. Q: does Trump know this? Our technology is concentrated on diesel emissions, not only on gasoline engines, thank God, otherwise we'll be in deep s**t. Our invention is still safe, then.

Wow! this forum is truly amazing. Guess, i'll be always online. Nice meeting you online, sir.

Hi guys, I'm new at this forum which has so much knowledge to be learned, I'm so much intrigued about 'plasma ignition' which, i presumed to be a diy thing, judging from the comments (pages 1-116). I've read about 60mpg in one comment. Q: how about showing data (before and after plasma ignition)? Does someone have a 'install and forget' device for non-diyer's? I understand this plasma thing is only for gasoline, right? Sorry for interrupting.

Just checked NGK Ruthenium spark plug design. I can guarantee that it won't be suitable for plasma based on my experience with iridiums(it did not outlast cheap nickel non resistor spark plug). Sure it can give much better life with conventional ignition. But plasma is very different.

Sharp thin electrode would quickly vaporize iridium and tungsten. Ruthenium is no different in this regard. If there is considerable surface area for spark erosion, like in surface discharge design it would hold up for a very long time.

I like to think about it this way:
Hammering a needle like point on another metal, no matter how hard the needle tip is made of, the pressure is way too high, whereas hammering on a larger surface area, not so much.

In case of plasma, concentrating huge plasma impulse on a sharp point is similar to the above analogy. My understanding is that plasma temperature is way over any known material, so electrode erosion is inevitable.

So key to better durability of plug is distributing spark erosion by increasing the surface area of the electrode in the spark gap.

I got an email from rock auto today - NGK is now selling Ruthenium spark plugs, another rare metal similar to Iridium.

Yes this is Honda cbf150 unicorn variant motorcycle.
Here is the link for LPC plugs:
https://store.usalpc.com/product/int...nt-spark-plug/

There is a secondary air injection built in to exhaust valve chamber design supplies fresh air to exhaust for meeting CO emission requirements. This had an o ring for avoiding oil entering this chamber. O ring was not tight fit,I applied some gasket maker and so far its holding up well.

After decarbonizing my engine, my bike exhaust is so much cleaner and giving off crazy amount of steam after 3000rpm
Before decarbonizing (with oil leak) there was horrible smell which is now gone.

I am seeing this much amount of steam from my engine for first time after doing power lynz. At first, I mistaken it for oil burning. I even did glass fogging test on exhaust.

If my understanding is correct, this could be the consequence of power lynz. Steam was observed after running straight 30kms with 108 main jet (originally 115 main jet) with throttle position sensor connected and without detonation. What I am interested is to see how long this benefit would last considering the poor quality of gasoline available(its looks adulterated)

Crank case gases are so clean that there is no visible smoke even with a laser test.

[heysoundude]

I'll google the LPC plugs, but would you be so kind as to provide the link you use?

engine deposits - this is a motorcycle as I recall, correct? do they have a system to balance crankcase pressure and evacuate the blowby and unburned hydrocarbon vapours, like a PCV system in cars? if so, have you tried a catch can on the evac line that recirculates back into the intake?

[firozmusthafa]

Just an update on my experiments. I recently did power lynz inside intake manifold and intake port.
Couldn't get the ridges on intake valve along with it since tungsten carbide and diamond tools were not even able to score the valves .

When I opened engine, I was shocked to see hard epoxy like deposits, even after soaking it for hours in methanol, methylene chloride, carburetor cleaner, methyl ethyl ketone, kerosene and gasoline, it did nothing to it. Ended up running hard carbon steel wire wheel for about 20 minutes to get it off completely. It was a frustrating experience. Ordinary gasoline piston deposits washes off quickly under a minute. I think that the oil additives from valve seal might be the reason for this.

Funny thing is there was oil disappearing every week and no smoke or oily residue in exhaust (plasma could be the reason). Piston, rings and bore were in spec and were not having any scorings.

With powerlynz I have noticed cooler exhaust temperature after decarbonization. So my conclusion is that if engine has hard carbon deposits inside combustion chamber, it won't allow advanced ignition timing and lean mixtures together. Gasoline deposits are inevitable with conventional fuel delivery.

Also I tried LPC intelligent spark plug with plasma and noticed that both Torquemasters and LPC plugs are similar in performance

Just ordered some 30kv 18 gauge wire from eBay, may as well replace that to. Makes me wonder if that could have been my problem all along, although it is working fine now even with the low voltage wire. I’m tempted to try the HV wire in conjunction with my Granatelli 0 olm wire to see what happens.

My Msd wire has 45 ohms of resistance.

Hi Jeremiah,





If the high voltage is shorting through the insulation you should be able to see sparks and arcing, especially after dark. It will also probably misfire if this occurs.
