one embodiment of the invention 10 may be given by reference to fig1 - 4 . by reference of the figures , an antenna 14 is disposed within a conduit 12 in a fixed and spaced relation therein to define an annulus 23 therearound and in an internal flow passageway 21 . in the illustrated embodiment , the antenna - to - conduit connector includes a bolt 26 and nut 28 , which bolt 26 secures an attachment tab 15 for electrical connection between antenna 14 and a source of electrical power 40 , e . g . a battery . ( see fig9 ) in a preferred embodiment , antenna 14 comprises a body or tube 24 defining a bore or passageway 21 therethrough , where said bore 21 is disposed coaxially with the longitudinal axis defined by conduit 12 . body 24 is comprised of a conductive material , e . g . gold , silver or steel , and as such readily conducts energy from power source to stimulate the electrons in the fluid passing through and around antenna 14 . conduit 12 may be provided with conventional first 30 and second 32 threaded ends for disposition within an existing fluid flow system 19 including complementary threaded connections ( see fig3 ). fluid passing through conduit 12 flows around assembly 14 via annulus 23 and further flows through internal passageway 21 . conduit 12 may be manufactured from a variety of materials , inclusive of materials demonstrating varying degrees of transparency . moreover , the interior surface of the conduit 12 can be either reflective or nonreflective of radiant energy . in order to agitate the flow of fluids passing through internal flow passageway 21 , a vane assembly 17 may be disposed within conduit 12 and coupled to body 24 , where such assembly 17 includes vane members 22 located at an inlet end 13 and an outlet end 11 of the said tube 24 ( see fig3 ). fig5 - 8 disclose a booster assembly or amplifier 34 including a housing 38 and antenna elements 40 disposed within the said housing 38 . housing portion 38 does not permit liquid to contact antenna elements 40 . though fig5 - 6 illustrate the booster assembly 34 disposed within a fluid passageway , it is contemplated that booster assembly will also be disposed external to any fluid flow . antenna element 40 is made from a highly conductive wound filament 45 , e . g . gold , which is wound around the main conductive wire 43 . alternatively , windings 45 may be made from silver or stainless steel or other conductive materials . antenna element 40 is preferably disposed with a housing 38 ( see fig8 ). it is envisioned that housing 38 may be made from a fiberglass compound , a resin or other material to protect windings 45 from corrosion and contamination . in a preferred embodiment , housing 38 is carbon doped to a ratio of some 6 - 20 % carbon . in another embodiment , carbon may be added onto the windings 45 in the form of a sheath or encasement . in still another embodiment , particles of carbon can be packed into the spaces provided between the windings 45 . it is preferred to use a carbon source known as hygiene carbon . booster assembly 34 is electrically connected to power source 41 such that it is situated in line with antenna 14 . in such a fashion , the net effect of antenna element 14 is enhanced . in a preferred embodiment , booster assembly 34 and antenna assembly 14 - are operated at a range of some 1 - 15 volts at 5 watts . the present invention intensifies the effects of radiant energy which is applied to the water . for example , the invention 10 increases radionic or loptic energy frequencies that are applied to water . when such treated water is applied to plants , plant growth is promoted . in addition , insects are removed and salts are broken down . in this respect , plants treated with such water will be healthier and have less problems due to disease . seeds of cucumber were obtained and divided into two equal groups . both groups were planted in seedling trays filled with topsoil . the plant depth of both groups was between 1 / 4 - 1 / 2 inches . the first group was treated with water flowing through an antenna containing liquid treatment apparatus where the antenna was supplied 6 volts direct current which was amplified by the use of two booster assemblies . the second group of seeds were treated with untreated water in the same quantity as for the seeds of th first group . the seeds of the first group germinated in 26 hours while the second group did not germinate until 48 hours . seeds of long red chile plants were obtained and divided into two equal groups . both groups were planted in seedling trays filled with topsoil . the seeds of both groups were planted to a depth of between 1 / 4 - 1 / 2 inches . the first group was treated with water flowing through an antenna containing liquid treatment apparatus where the antenna was supplied 6 volts direct current which was amplified by the use of two boosters . the second group of seeds were treated with untreated water in the same quantity as for the seeds of the first group . the seeds of the first group germinated in 12 days while the seeds in the second group did not germinate until 21 - 31 days later . the foregoing detailed description is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention . numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art and therefore , it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described . accordingly , all suitable modifications and equivalents falling within the broad scope of the subject matter described above may be resorted to in carrying out the present invention .
the present invention relates to a method and apparatus to energize a fluid . in one embodiment , the apparatus comprises a housing defining a bore therethrough within which is disposed an antenna so as to define an annulus between the housing and the antenna , the antenna being electrically coupled to both the housing and an electrical power source so as to create an electrical field through which water or other fluids may be passed .
