Ice Capacitor Experiments
What has always fascinated me is the vast amounts of water around us - the Earth is seven tenths covered in water, the atmosphere is full of it, and we are mostly water ourselves. For the purposes of Gravitic experiments, water would be an ideal choice, as it has a dielectric constant of around 75 (depends on your water), but sadly it ionises and breaks down easily. However, I thought, what if the water was frozen and ionised molecules were enuable to transmit their charge to others so easily and speed the breakdown? The experiment I did may interest you.........
I wanted to create a cellular gravitator, as anyone familiar with T.T. Brown will be well acquainted, so I set about finding a vessel to create it in. A simple lemonade bottle, with the top cut off works well. To begin with, I poured a layer of water into the base until it covered the knobbly bottom of the bottle, then froze it. When this was done, I cut a circle of aluminium foil, slightly less than the diameter of the bottle and fed a wire into the bottom of the bottle through a hole cut in the now-frozen layer. I lay the aluminium on top, added more water, and refroze again. I continued adding water and aluminium layers until the bottle was filled. This amounted to about 10 layers, to meet the breakdown voltage for my power supply. Finally, I capped it off with a final layer of metal, and attached a connection wire for the high voltage. When all was suitably frozen, I connected it up, and begain the test.......
The Results
The Gravitator was operated at three voltage levels, 50 kilovolts, 100 kilovolts, and 170 kilovolts. At all three levels, the Ice capcitor developed a thrust in the direction of its positive pole. As one would imagine, the thrust was directly and linearly proportional to the voltage. Current was around 200uA. The thrust was not as good as that evolved by the polysulphide dielectric, but was very impressive, considering there was no exposed metal whatsoever to cause ion wind! I thoroughly encourage other experimenters to duplicate my research. At its peak, I obtained a fifth of a Newton from this gravitator.
The Conclusions
Water ice, despite not being as impressive as other, more massive dielectrics, still packs a hefty electrogravitic thrust into a small space. I intend to push this further in future, especially in view of the fact that there was no possibility of ion wind generation anywhere from the gravitator.
