Project Description:
This HydroBooster is Kevin .... Kww  IDEA. It is very nice...!
I wanted to build it because it is a compact design that packs a fair bit
of plate size and his method is quite Quick and Cheap.
I stuck his 15 plate in a 4 inch pvc tube.
I made it approx 10 inches high.
It basically has two seven cell series units running in parrallel.
So 15 plates,  a connection tag in the middle
and a connection at each end.
I am putting positive in the centre and connecting neg to both the ends.
-
So Series cells means that across any two plates - there can be a maximum of
2 V ( on my car because it has generator at 14 V ).
It is in some respects a Series / parallel unit because it has two series
cells running out from the central connection.
All plates are sealed down both sides and across their bottoms.
When I pour water into the middle, it just sits there in the middle and doesnt flow any where. Unless I shake it a bit like in a car , then some will
slosh over into the next cell. Keeping the level may be a bit of a problem.
Some set up small leakage between cells to keep the level even.
This has the dissadvantage of reducing efficiency. Kevins System of
assembly works so well that it seals completely.
The plates are 1.2 mm thick ( probably 304 stainless but I hope they are
316 Grade - cause its better ) from old Laboratory equipement.
This stuff would not attract a rare earth magnet at all.
Spacers are 3.2mm because that was the thickness of the perspex sheet
I had to cut up. All plates are Cross Hatch sanded.
I used Two Part Epoxy Resin glue ( you know the 24 Hr " super Strong Stuff )
Spread all over the sides and bottom of the " Stack ".
Once this set I wrapped nylon string tightly around the bundle and put more Epoxy on the corners. then I inserted the Whole thing into a 4 inch
tube. A very Snug fit. I am in the process of sealing the two ends with
Roofing silastic ( no acetic acid ). and also smearing Silastic over the sides
as well. This should back up the epoxy , just in case I get any stress cracks
from the vibration in a car.
I probably will go with one electrical connection in the centre TOP and
then two electrical connections from the sides.
The Gas out will be right over to one side on the top as will be the Water
( Distilled Water of Course ) inlet pipe. I will probably set up a gravity feed
system again. This unit is going in a van and there is ample room above
for a container, but it is a bit difficult to open the unit where it is sitting.
-
Plate sizes: Metric ( sorry ) 210mm High.... 83 mm wide
So this gives 54 Square Inches of effective Anode ( one face ) because
there are two sets in parrallel.
Thats 756 Sq Inches of total plate area. All under about 11 inches and
4 inch pipe.
In my reckoning 54 Sq " means 27 A of fairly efficient or 13 A of Very Efficient
electrolysing. Its equivalent to plates 9 inches x 6 inches ( 8 plates for 7 cells.)
I really hope the Wife appreciates all this technology and work.!

This is A Mock up Of assembly for the KWW...Kevin assembly technique.
Note The plates should Be Cross Hatch sanded - these are not.
See thin strips for Sticking between. These are 3mm x 3.2mm, would have been better if they were 3mm thick......maybe next time.!

No prizes for noticing the photo shop adjustments. Strips are laid along edges...Talk about FUN.!!!

Next Layer sitting on Top, So Exciting.!

More, More, more this is Just So Easy.!

Pretend there are 8 Plates or Even 15 if you prefer, Then Square it all up. place a Heavy Flat object on top to keep it in Place. check, its all nice and lined up. Mix up the Epoxy Resin Glue 50%A 50%B and spread it on all the edges to stick the strips to the plates.Leave this for 3 Days if you can wait that long( the suspense is Killing me). Remove the Weight and find like me that You've glued it to the Bench..... Well Stick some plastic under next time.! Find some Nylon String, The stretchy one. And bind it up tightly. Then use more Epoxy Resin Glue To coat over this string. Next thing is to Liberally coat with Silastic ( Roofing type with No Acid in it ) to seal in case of stress cracks.
You can trim off the plastic strips that went too long, cry over the strips that mooved when glueing. Then figure out what you can stick this in. One idea is to Glue a box of Plastic onto the outsides.
When I say plastic I am referring to ABS or Polyethelene or something suitable. See Kww project Photo.
