Andrija Puharich Foundation of Voltrolysis Methods.

Andrija Puharich (February 19, 1918 – January 3, 1995) — born Henry Karel Puharić — was a medical and parapsychological researcher, medical inventor, physician and author, known as the person who brought Israeli Uri Geller (born 1946) and Dutch-born Peter Hurkos (1911–1988) to the United States for scientific investigation.

Andrija Puharich was born in Chicago, Illinois, one of seven children born to Croatian immigrants.[1] His father had emigrated from what was then the Austro-Hungarian Empire, entering the U.S. in 1912 as a stowaway. At home Karel's parents always called him "Andrija," which apparently wasn't his name at birth but just his parents' nickname for him.

 

When Karel, as a young boy, started attending school, his parents enrolled him under the name "Henry Karl Puharich," feeling he would be more easily accepted with that name than with the foreign-sounding name "Karel Puharić."[2] Thereafter he often signed his name as "Henry Karl Puharich." He didn't start using his nickname "Andrija" as his first name until sometime in the later part of his life.

During World War II, Puharich attended Northwestern University as a student in the Army Specialized Training Program. He earned an undergraduate degree in philosophy and pre-medicine in 1943 and received his M.D. from the Northwestern University School of Medicine in 1947.[1] 

 

His residency was completed at the Permanente Research Foundation in Oakland, California, where he specialized in internal medicine. From 1953 to 1955, he served as a captain in the Army Medical Corps; in this capacity, he was assigned as Chief, Outpatient Service, U.S. Army Dispensary, Army Chemical Center, Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland.[1] 

 

By this time he was already presenting papers on the possible military usefulness of paranormal phenemona.[3]

During that time, he was in and out of Edgewood Arsenal Research Laboratories and Fort Detrick, meeting with various high-ranking officers and officials, primarily from The PentagonCIA, and Naval Intelligence.[4] 

 

The Edgewood Arsenal is currently officially called the Edgewood Area of Aberdeen Proving Ground.

Puharich was impressed by the stories about the Dutch psychic Peter Hurkos and invited him to the U.S. in 1956 to investigate his alleged abilities (see below). In 1960, Puharich investigated materialization séances at Camp Chesterfield, but discovered the use of cheesecloth being used to fake ectoplasm.[5] Puharich played himself on Perry Mason television series, in the episode, "The Case of the Meddling Medium," in 1961.

 

He conducted a series of three tests to help determine the ESP of Mason's client accused of murder. During the third test, the actual murderer was exposed.

In 1971, Puharich met Israeli psychic Uri Geller and endorsed him as a genuine psychic (see below). Puharich wrote a supportive 1974 biography of Geller, a subject he had investigated with the help of Itzhak Bentov, among others.

 

He also investigated and thought favorably of the Brazilian psychic surgeon Zé Arigó, providing an afterword for his 1974 biographer. Puharich also investigated Mexican psychic surgeon Pachita. One of his books is The Sacred Mushroom: Key to the Door of Eternity, describes his work with psychics.

In the 1970s, Puharich claimed he had investigated the effects of a low frequency radiation beam that the Soviet Union had been testing. According to Puharich the beam was based on the work of Nikola Tesla and could be used as a weapon to control people. He also claimed the beam was responsible for climatic disturbances, earthquakesLegionnaires' disease and violent riots. Puharich wrote Tesla was contacted several times by extraterrestrials.[6]

Two of the most famous of Puharich's 50-plus patents were devices that assist hearing: the "Means For Aiding Hearing" U.S. Patent 2,995,633 and "Method And Apparatus For Improving Neural Performance In Human Subjects By Electrotherapy" U.S. Patent 3,563,246". He was also granted a U.S. Patent 4,394,230 in 1983 for a "Method and Apparatus for Splitting Water Molecules.

 

" His research included studying the influence of extremely low frequency ELF electromagnetic wave emissions on the mind, and he invented several devices allegedly blocking or converting ELF waves to prevent harm.

While working in Mexico, Puharich married and later divorced Rebecca Alban Hoffberger, the future founder and director of The American Visionary Art Museum.

Andrija Puharich Stage A 

The Following Study work was produce by Alex Petty

one of the worlds water fuel Industry preservation members.

We preserve and share it here so humanity has a chance. 

In his 1983 patent, Andrija Puharich describes his water splitting technique

as being a multi-stage water treatment process.

The stages of this process are summarized below:

Stage A: Dry charging the cell to test integrity of all components and to clean cell surfaces with high voltage electrostatic charge.

Stage B: (which has 5 phases)

B.1:

Water is added to the cell but not so high as to close the circuit.

 

B.2:

Water is added drop by drop until the circuit is closed as it connects non-insulated surfaces of the cell.

B.3:

The resonant frequency of the carrier drops, voltage and current drop, and sine wave from Stage A is changed to a rippled square wave. Andrija Puharich says this happens because of water’s changing RC constant from treatment. According to Andrija Puharich, the frequency of the rippled square wave at this stage is a function of its entrainment with water’s nuclear spin relaxation constant (tau=3.0 sec).

 

Also, at this phase Andrija Puharich says that the square wave exhibits higher order harmonics, each relating to the specific resonances of the water molecule’s atoms.

 

B.4:

When the water becomes highly polarizes, the waveform exhibits complete half-wave rectification. Slight electrolysis is evident by the appearance of a faint vapor.

Something else interesting happens at this stage. The reverse threshold is met. This can be tested by opening the circuit once again by removing some of the water in the cell until the water level falls below the cathode’s insulation line.

 

Voltage and current will then drop to zero, and the rippled square wave will disappear, but it will give way to positive uni-polar pulses occurring within the water itself.

B.5:

Through the process given above, the water is reshaped into a more rigid, higher energy state exhibiting a tetrahedral conformation given by a bond angle shift from 104 degrees to 109 degrees and 28 minutes. According to Andrija Puharich, it is only at this point that resonance can be applied to bring about thermodynamically efficient water splitting.

Stage C:

 A new waveform is generated that matches the effects seen during stage B. This causes the rippled square wave to give way to a rippled sawtooth wave and the appearance of 4 higher order harmonics:
Carrier frequency: 3980Hz
OHM1: 7960Hz
OHM2: 15,920Hz
OHM3: 31,840Hz
OHM4: 63,690Hz

These higher order harmonics indicate the resonance during efficient electrolysis of each apice of the water molecule in its tetrahedral conformation.

Andrija Puharich states that gas being formed using this method exhibits a visible centripetal “pearl chain formation” that looks like the “spokes of a wheel” in the cell.

Stage D:
Rapid hydrolysis slows as a barrier potential is formed after about 27 minutes of operation.

 

Stage E:
A barrier to the operation of the effect arises as the result of microscopic gas bubbles

forming on the cell plates.

Stage F:
Mechanical vibration (tapping) can be used to “shake the bubbles free” and clear the plates for continued operation.

What follows is a demonstration of Andrija Puharichs Stage A.

Andrija Puharich described his apparatus with the following block diagram:

Alex using the following configuration in  testing.

replication-setup-2018-07-03_15-51-18.jpg

The waveform input is produced using a circuit I have built for this purpose. This circuit generates the carrier wave frequency, the audio wave frequency, manages the amplitude modulation, and handles the cycling amplitude ramp-up and ramp-down all as described in the patent.

The mixer (level select) I am using is a Mackie 1402 VLZ. Each of the first 6 channel strips have their own built in pre-amp. I am amplifying a 2 Vpp input to a 5 Vpp output at this stage.

mixer-2018-07-03_16-15-53.jpg

This pre-amplifier has a frequency response of:
+0, -1dB, 20Hz to 50kHz
+0, -3dB, <10Hz, 50kHz up to 100kHz

The power amp I am using is a QSC RMX 2450 capable of 1300W of output in bridged mono mode. Here, I am amplifying a 5 Vpp up to an output of 250 Vpp

poweramp-2018-07-03_16-29-26.jpg

This amplifier has a frequency response of:
20 Hz – 20 kHz: +0/-1 dB
-3 dB at 5 Hz and 50 kHz
-5 dB at 100 kHz

Below is the isolation transformer I am using:

iso-xformer-2018-07-03_16-34-34.jpg

Puharich’s water capacitor, as described in his patent, looks as shown below:

puharich-cell-2018-07-03_13-20-19.jpg

For the purposes of testing, I have reduced the cell’s complexity by removing various features including it’s heat dissipation fins, glass tubes, and the asymmetric, conical electrical insulator around the cathode. Puharich’s purpose for the conical insulator is to slowly shift the polarity of the water as one fills the cell drop by drop. As the cell fills, the water feels the cathodes polarity gradually more and more because of the angle of the insulator along the vertical axis of the cathode. The reason for the glass tubes in Puharich’s cell is to better enable the collection and routing of derived gases for the purpose of making precise energy output measurements.

With the simplifications I have made, the cell I am now testing may be understood as shown below:

puharich-cell-simplified-2018-07-03_13-20-19.jpg

The disassembled physical implementation of this cell is shown below:

puharic-cell-1-side-view-dissassembled-2018-07-03_13-27-37.jpg

As seen from the top, the assembled cell looks like this:

puharic-cell-1-top-view-2018-07-03_13-26-35.jpg

The capacitance of this cell is ~40.23pF:

capacitance-of-cell-1-2018-07-03_13-30-06.jpg

The inductors on either side of the cell (coils built by my friend Russ Gries), L1 and L2, have the following characteristics.

L1: 565.2 mH

chokes-2018-07-03_17-50-10.jpg

L1:  ~100 Ohms DC Resistance

L1-DC-Res-2018-07-03_22-11-07.jpg

L2: 565.2 mH

L2-chokes-2018-07-03_19-29-56.jpg

L2: ~100 Ohms DC Resistance

L2-DC-Res-2018-07-03_17-57-06-1680x811.jpg

The calculated resonant frequency (f_r)

f_r = 1 * (2pi * (LC)^1/2)^-1
L = 0.5652 H
C = 4.02*10^-11 F
f_r = ~33.38 kHz

According to Puharich, Stage A of the process is dry charging as described below:

patent-image-1.jpg

In my results, the actual resonant frequency was ~29 kHz where the voltage (E) on the dry cell rose from 0 to ~240 Vpp and where the max current (I) fluctuated from 0 to ~870mA.

In the above video, the analog scope is showing the 5V output from the pre-amp. The digital scope is showing the amplified signal on both sides of the cell. The yellow trace is on the cathode, the blue trace is on the anode. These traces are superimposed on one another.

As a next step, I want to:
(1) decrease the Stage A current down towards Puharich’s guidance of 25mA (I)
(2) increase Stage A voltage up to 250 Vrms (E)
(3) increase Stage carrier frequency closer to 62kHz

These 3 goals are achievable by:
(1) building a cell with a wider gap between the plates
(2) adjusting the inductance of L1 and L2

Demonstrations of stages B through F to come.

Summary 

Puharich's water splitting process involves a multi-stage treatment of the water. This video shows Stage A. In these results, the resonant frequency was ~29 kHz where the voltage (E) on the dry cell rose from 0 to ~240 Vpp and where the max current (I) fluctuated from 0 to ~870mA.  In this video, the analog scope is showing the 5V output from the pre-amp. The digital scope is showing the amplified output from both sides of the cell. The yellow trace is on the cathode, the blue trace is on the anode. These traces are superimposed on one another. As a next step, I want to adjust Stage A parameters to be better in keeping with Puharich's guidance so that current (I) is 25mA, voltage (E) is 250 Vrms, and where the carrier frequency is closer to 62kHz. The complete list of Puharich's stages are: --------------- Stage A: Dry charging the cell to test integrity of all components and to clean cell surfaces with high voltage electrostatic charge. --------------- Stage B: (which has 5 phases) B.1: Water is added to the cell but not so high as to close the circuit.

 Water as Fuel with Mr Andrija Puharich and Mr Stanley A Meyer

With more than 300 million cubic miles of water on the Earth’s surface, it’s one of the most abundant substances on the planet. Water comprises two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. When these gases are derived from water through electrolysis, they form a combustible gas. The exhaust produced by burning this gas is once again water.

The problem with water as a fuel is that water is already the exhaust of hydrogen combustion. How can one use the exhaust of combustion to produce combustion? It seems an impossible problem to overcome. We see this barrier in the observation that electrolysis requires far more applied energy than it yields as output. However, inventors in the early 1980′s began exploring and publishing claims of exotic, low power means for disrupting the covalent bonds that hold the water molecule together.

The man who first patented a form of this technology was Andrija Puharich. Incidentally, at the time Puharich filed his water fuel patent in June of 1981, he lived only a few miles from where I live today. His patent was titled “A Method and Apparatus for Splitting Water Molecules”, which he was granted on July 19th, 1983.

The key elements of Puharich’s setup are connected in series:
1) implementation to manage the waveform
2) an isolation transformer
3) a capacitor formed from insulated cylindrical plates using water as a dielectric
4) inductors placed serially on either side of the capacitor

fig1-puharich-cell-arrangement.jpg

Puharich’s water fuel cell was arranged as follows:

fig2-puharich-cell.jpg

Puharich energized his cell with a low-frequency amplitude modulated AC waveform between 20 to 200 Hz carried on a frequency of between 200 to 100,000 Hz. In operation, the frequencies are tuned so that the capacitor, the water cell, is resonant with the Vss side inductor.

fig3-puharich-am-waveform.jpg

This waveform is rectified by the water between the capacitor’s plates as the magnitude of polarization in the water increases through the operation of the cell.

fig4-puharich-rectified-am-waveform.jpg

Shortly after Puharich was granted his patent, Stan Meyer began work along similar lines. I do not know for sure whether Meyer began his research after having read Puharich’s patent, but based on the chronology of the patent filings and the similarities in their approaches, I think it likely that Meyer’s work was directly based on Puharich’s. From 1983 until his death in 1998, Meyer was granted more than 15 patents as he continually improved upon his version of the technology. The most descriptive disclosure of Meyer’s basic approach comes from his 1990 patent which you may review by clicking here.

As with Puharich, the key elements of Meyer’s setup are connected in series:
1) electronics to manage the circuits energization
2) an isolation transformer
3) a capacitor formed from 304L stainless steel coaxial tubes using water as a dielectric
4) inductors placed serially on either side of the capacitor
5) a “blocking” diode placed on the Vdd side of the further inductor

fig5-meyer-block-diagram.jpg

Meyer’s water fuel cell was arranged as follows:

fig6-meyers-water-fuel-cell.jpg

Meyer energized his cell with two square wave frequencies; a higher frequency tuned to the resonant frequency of the water cell (a capacitor) and the Vss side inductor, and a lower square wave frequency used to gate the resonant frequency at regular intervals to permit the step charging effect time to reset. The resulting waveform is a train of square pulses followed by a constant off-period.

Below is a diagram showing how Meyer used this waveform to step charge the water cell to such a degree that the water molecules are “winched” apart by the strong orientation effect of the increasing electrostatic field.

fig7-meyers-waveform.jpg

The result is a low power effect that uses strong polarity to weaken and dissolve the covalent bond of the water molecule and so produces oxygen and hydrogen gases.

fig8-splitting-water.jpg

Below is a water capacitor I built while attempting to replicate Meyer’s technology.

fig9-040210-0900_single_cell.jpg

Below are measurements of the capacitance, resistance (and impedance) of the water capacitor in both dry and submerged states at various frequencies. See  below:

fig11-082610-0730_crz_tap_water.jpg
fig10-082610-0730_crz_wfc_dry.jpg

Below is a picture of the WFC mounted in tap water.

fig12-082610-0730_coaxial_water_capacitor1.jpg

Below is a 5 capacitor array.

fig13-052310-1823_coaxial_water_capacitor_array_side.jpg

In the following image, a pulse frequency of 2110 Hz and a gating frequency of 120 Hz was used.

fig14-082610-0730_input_waveform.jpg

The waveform output on the water capacitor looks as shown below:

082610-0730_output_waveform.jpg

The step charging on the water capacitor rose in this test to 715 volts. The cell made very light gas production while consuming a steady average of 1500 mW of power.

The gas generation shown in the video was produced with the high voltage and low current effect that Meyer described in his patents, at least as well as I could replicate it. Meyer referred to this effect as the Electrical Polarization Process.
