when go more into detail for those parameters I´ll try to make an LTSpice model to simulate circuit behaviour.[/quote]Already did! The only problem is you cannot simulate the non-linear resistance drop of the water. As dog one pointed out, the resistance of the water drops with voltage. It is well known in physics and chemistry that the resistance of water does not follow ohms law.
Because of that you can't get the discharge RC time constant to be shorter than the charging RC time constant on the simulation.
ENJOY!
The thing most notable to me was how the water capacitor would charge fairly easily to just under two volts potential; above that its internal resistance drops rapidly. That break in linearity seems like something we should be focusing on; specifically, how do we increase that break point to some higher voltage.Quote from HMS-776 on August 23rd, 2013, 06:40 AM I will go into this further later...Until then, enjoy!
of course it needs parameter tables to implemente the simulation.
as an example for a saturable transformer core simulated in spice realized with programmable sources: http://www.beigebag.com/case_xfrmer_3.htm
