I have a vacuum pump that is used for evacuating A/C systems. At 29.5 inches of mercury, water turns to vapor. With a plasm spark, would it ignite? Anybody have an thoughts?
Or this. The exhasut of my vacuum pump could be routed through a very fine SS mesh electrode. Think electrolysis would occur on the vapor?
I doubt it would. You still have to split the water molecules. Water vapor in itself is not "split".
That is the basic theory of the 'water sparkplug' stan meyer used.
