Abstract
A hydrogen jet system includes an evacuated recirculation duct, with a pump to circulate gas around the recirculation duct and a control nozzle to form a jet of gas; means to provide hydrogen gas into the duct; and an electrical device to provide energy into the jet of gas so as to form hydrogen atoms. The jet of gas is arranged to pass through a hollow electrode shell defining opposed apertures that are aligned with the jet of gas; and a target electrode is arranged beyond the electrode shell and also aligned with the jet of gas, so that hydrogen atoms would impact with the target electrode. The electrode shell and the target electrode are each connected to an external electrical terminal. The electrode shell and the target electrode may each define heat exchange channels to remove heat energy during operation.

A hydrogen jet system, the system comprising an evacuated recirculation duct, with a pump to circulate gas around the evacuated recirculation duct and a control nozzle to form a jet of gas;
- means to provide hydrogen gas into the duct;
- a device to provide energy into the jet of gas so as to form hydrogen atoms;
- a hollow electrode shell defining opposed apertures that are aligned with the jet of gas, so the jet of gas can pass through the hollow electrode shell;
- and a target electrode beyond the electrode shell and also aligned with the jet of gas, so that hydrogen atoms would impact with the target electrode, wherein the hollow electrode shell is spherical, wherein the opposed apertures are aligned with the axis of the control nozzle, and wherein the hollow electrode shell and the target electrode are connected to respective external electrode terminals, whereby an electrical output may be provided.
