ROCKET TESTING
In 1998 while living in Vancouver, Canada, I began experimenting with generating my own gasoline fuel vapor for propulsion applications. This was done by introducing a source of compressed air (inflated tire tube) into a 1 gallon glass jar, one third full-3 parts water and 1 part gasoline.
The bubbling of the air through the solution produced a weak distillate with a low pressure, low volume output.
The rocket was a 1 gallon, wide mouthed juice container. The plastic cap was fitted with a short sleeve of half inch copper as the orifice.
Most of my testing is intuitive. In this test fuel vapor from the bubbler was introduced into the 1 gallon plastic jug in the inverted position. Tests were done on a sunny day where the 1 gallon plastic jug was left for a full minute to absorb the UV from the sun. At the time I did not understand what was happening. Just knew that it worked far beyond any conventional means researched at the time.
In the initial test, the 1 gallon plastic jug with shrink wrap (unremoved) was duck taped to a horizontal piece of 1 x 2 nailed to the side of the test shed. A 12 inch long match was used to ignite the orifice opening.
. What took place within the space of 1 to 3 seconds blew me away! The vapor inside the 1 gallon jug did not explode
What I saw was a 1 and a half wide x 36 inch white, blue-white flame that generated a super sonic thrust. The velocity of the flame was so extremely fast, that the shrink wrap was left behind! The weight of the gasoline inside of the 1 gallon container could not have been more than a few nominal drops.
Secondly, the one gallon plastic jug was propelled faster than the eye could see approx. 80 ft. into the air. Remember that I was doing this in the back yard where I was staying. Lots of nosey neighbours to contend with.
Observations noted that when the jug reached flame out, a LOUD POP was heard. This is important.
Followed up by bench testing in the presence of sunlight, it was noted repeatedly, that AS THE FUEL VAPOR was being consumed (fuel vapor visible in the sunlight), that it was being replaced by vacuum. It could be seen that the bottom of the container was pulled down a full inch or more. Both fuel vapor (pressure) and vacuum coexisted within the same confinement field. I've never came across this in any science that I'm aware of.
Overall observations noted that this flame had a velocity that surpassed the ability for molecular fuel to generate. The oxidation of the air, water and fuel mix may have well reached a state of ionization just below the plasma state of matter.
in the past I have shared this with MIT and they just laughed at the results. Said that it was absolutely impossible!
After nearly 20 years I'm putting this on the table for you guys give it your best shot as to what is happening.
