Body
Two types of micro tornadoes in the Sono-diffuser that I built with
glass outer cylinder. I drew a depiction of what we saw under HeNe
laser and high speed strobe effects to stop action the events. see
After about an hour running time on the Diffuser, the 6061 aluminum
rotor would turn totally black due to the erosion caused by the micro
tornadoes that were attached to the rotor vs the ones that were point to
point attached to one another. Rotor was etched to flat black
condition. In the closed loop water tygon clear tubing circulating line
we found that the water was carrying a charge for it created a powerful
magnetic field around the water line.
