Plasma oscillator water heater/steam boiler

An optically resonant oscillating plasma water/steam heater, comprising:

• a gaseous media chamber having parallel internally mirrored surfaces;
• at least one pair of transverse positive feedback optically resonant mirror cavities located within said chamber between said mirrored surfaces, with said transverse cavities establishing an oscillating plasma therebetween;
• a source of broad band electromagnetic radiation for flooding said chamber;
• a heat exchanging means immersed in the plasma in said chamber and having water to be heated therein, which water is isolated from physical contact with said plasma;
• thermal radiation energy transfer means in said heat exchanger for transferring photonic energy from said oscillating plasma to said water;
• and
• a molecular kinetic conduction means for transferring molecular kinetic energy on demand from said plasma to said water in said heat exchanging means.

A method of heating water from a reservoir of extractable energy stored in an optically resonant mirror chamber at the molecular and quantum level, said method comprising the steps of:

• forming plasma oscillations within a mixed inert gas contained in a vacuum within an internal reflective optically resonant mirror chamber;
• storing said extractable energy in resonance forming said oscillating plasma, which energy may be extracted as heat;
• establishing, from said oscillating plasma, a thermal radiation energy transfer and molecular kinetic conduction energy transfer for water to be heated;
• withdrawing said extractable energy from the reservoir of said oscillating plasma;
• and
• imparting the withdrawn energy as heat delivered to water circulating through said chamber.

A method of heating water from extractable energy stored at the molecular and quantum level in an optical resonant mirror chamber, said method comprising the steps of:

• vacuum injecting a mixed inert gaseous media within a optically resonant mirrored chamber;
• forming plasma oscillations by use of mirrors containing the vacuum injected inert gas;
• reflecting thermal radiant energy between said mirrors in said optically resonant chamber;
• regenerating complimentary energy forms of photonic energy and molecular kinetic energy in resonance in said oscillating plasma;
• storing said complimentary energy forms as extractable energy in said oscillating plasma, which energy is extractable as heat;
• establishing a thermal radiation energy transfer and molecular kinetic conduction transfer for water to be heated;
• and
• withdrawing said extractable energy from said oscillating plasma;
• and
• imparting withdrawn energy as heat to said water.

A method of heating water from a reservoir of extractable energy in an optically resonant oscillating plasma water heater operating with the reflection of efficiency greater than absorption efficiency at the molecular and quantum level, said method comprising the steps of:

• evacuating an optically resonant mirror chamber;
• placing within said evacuated mirror chamber a known volume of an inert gaseous mixture capable of supplying an electron population for elevated quantum electron states and molecular kinetic energy;
• causing quantized photonic energy and molecular kinetic energy to resonate between mirrors which constitute said optically resonant chamber;
• and
• heating water by energy extracted from said optically resonant chamber.

An optically resonant oscillating plasma water heating method comprising the steps of:

• storing energy in an optically resonant mirror chamber within said water heating apparatus;
• containing an oscillating plasma of photonic energy and molecular kinetic energy in said optically resonant mirror chamber of said water heating apparatus;
• controllably entering broad band electromagnetic radiation into said optically resonant mirror chamber for the purpose of regenerating the inversion of quantum electron states forming said plasma;
• facilitating by positive feedback a faster rate of photonic energy due to the internal reflection efficiency being greater than the absorption efficiency which attenuates the plasma energy at a slower rate;
• and
• sustaining an oscillating plasma from which water heating energy may be extracted.
