In this video I show you how to control fire with my hands by charging myself to 50,000 Volts to use electric forces to control the ions in the partial plasma of fire in order to bend and manipulate the fire with only my hands!
In this video I use a specially treated super hydrophobic knife to cut water droplets in half! I see how small of a water drop I can get!

That principle can be in great use for firefighters. For instance they can wear a small high voltage device which charges some sort of aluminized suit so it can repel fire (and heat) away.

I still have a Wimshurst machine I bought back in the 70's, from a company called Edmund Scientific. I need a new leyden jar, and some work on the collectors. The device could generate 75,000 volts. There are so many experiments that can be done. Once, I even tried to attach a motor drive so I could have both hands free. Not enough torque, though. I may revisit that attempt one day.

Now use the high voltage to make an electrostatic percipatator. That is a tube with a wire in the center wire and foil lined on the part of the tube. The let a smokey flame through the tube and the smoke will be attached to the foil and the flame smoke will stop polluting. I understand that power plants use this to stop polluting. I built one as a kid and it worked very well.

@dominicestebanrice7460 7 месяцев назад

Another really interesting video. Thank you! I wonder if the effect would still occur with a blue gas flame? I suspect the luminous, yellow portion of the candle flame contains charged soot particles and free radicals - the net positive charge is a strong clue. FWIW, this flame is not really a plasma*. Of course, the effect seen when you increased the spacing still happens with charged particles and does not require an electron-rich plasma. *From the Royal Society of Chemistry: "In fact, some very hot flames do contain plasma - when the energy inside them is sufficient to ionize enough of the air molecules. A classic example is the flame generated by burning acetylene in oxygen, which reaches an eye-watering 3100˚C. The paltry 1500˚C flame produced by a wax candle, on the other hand, is too low to be considered a textbook plasma."

During the Iraq war, Sadam set the Kuwait oil fields on fire. They ended up using explosives to put them out but I wonder if they could have used this technology? It was hard to even get close enough to set the explosives. You could easily push electrodes in to push the flame with needing to get too close. I wonder if you could pulse the voltage maybe using as AC waveform to disrupt the flame? Could be helpful in future for many applications.

@davidvwilliamson 3 месяца назад

if you take away the charge collecting stuff you can sense the electricity on the wheels with your finger& thumb if you put them near 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock; if you do it in a totally dark room you can see sparks coming off the wheels onto your finger & thumb. Simplifies the setup to the point where it becomes really mysterious and magical. Also incidentally much safer.
