I wonder how it would work.

It wouldn't.

The energy cost to power the radio frequency generator would be multiple times the energy potential of the hydrogen generated by the process. What is described here is only an interesting tabletop experiment. It has no commercial potential whatsoever.

and you can prove this how?

[chuckles]

I tell you what does work. You take your water( clean, not salt) and mix it with gas with an ultrasonic transducer. Then send it to the fuel injection system. It should remain separate for as long as possible and only be mixed at the last minute before being injected. The ultrasonic waves make the emulsion like milk and you get water injection allowing higher compression and higher turbo pressure. The only problems ever encountered is when the waves are turned off and the water separates from the fuel. Hard starting is the result.

Work arounds are turning off the water supply before the ignition is turned off to purge the system. Another is a chamber before the injectors that re mixes the emulsion before starting. There are many more, but you get the idea. The point is you can burn a 50/50 mixture of water/gas if you do it this way. It has already been done years ago, so it works for sure. In carburetors, they had the problem of separation in the bowl, so no joy there. FI made this all go away. The power it takes to make the ultrasonic mixer is just a few watts so an alternator works fine for that. Water is heavier than gas, so there may be some extra weight on a small car. If you have a 12 gallon tank now, I'm not sure if you would want a 6 gallon water and a 6 gallon gas tank. Most would probably opt for an extra water tank and keep the gas.

I wonder how well the cancer treatment idea will work? It seems plausible, at least. In fact, I'm not sure why it didn't occur to someone earlier.
