The best thing about burning hydrogen, is that you can burn steel
with it. Since the biggest problem with the GM I.C.E wanks
is that the only thing the idiots know efficiency is people who
run Exxon, rather than efficiency. And the only thing Exxon
knows about effiency is people who run G.E. rather than efficiency.
And the only thing G.E. knows about efficiency is people who
run steel mills, rather than efficiency.

Yes,
It's like taking a blow torch to the ocean
and measuring the local (close to the blowtorch) water only.

Limescale can be deposited without boiling. That is not an issue. If one of
these is heating a sealed thermals storage system limescale is not a
problem.

Enough info is there. Put it at 2.5 kW to sound up. Calculate temp rise
from 10C to 60C, 15C to 60C and room temp 20C to 60C and that will give some
figures. As he says, aluminium is not the ideal metal to use, stainless
steel is.

It think there is enough evidence to say it works - enough from NZ anyhow.
But is it feasible?

Sonic boilers are not new. James Griggs invnetd the hydrosonic pump.

You can buy one. Many claim it is an over unity device.

The company:

They are also on sale in Moldavia - where they were developed entirely
separately from Griggs.

But you'll notice these folks do *not* claim any overunity nonsense. They
explain that 'shockwave' heating is a way of heating water without using a
high temperature surface to get the heat into the water. So it has some
advantages in certain applications (no cold spots, no fouling or scaling of
surfaces if the water has a lot of contaminants).
