I'm preparing for producing the kephra's method.
1- I bought corn syrup yesterday, color is transparent, it has no yellow color, is that mean its light syrup that kephra using and is this the best form of syrup?
2- i need assistant about my silver wire shape and calculating surface area. The submerged area is about 13cm, width is 2,95mm on top and 2,65mm on the bottom (i've used it before for my ex formula) avarage diameter is 2,8mm, i thought i need do the calculation based on the average 2,8mm diameter, is that ok? It's also weighs 11,54 grams.
3- My silver wire has rectangle shaped not rounded, Do i have to multiply the surface area by four? For ex. 13cmx0,28cm=3,64cm² this is surface area for the one side of the wire, it has 4 sides, do i have to multiply by four?
4- I can set the electrode spacing minimum 43mm because of my electrode fixture. Based on my electrode sizes, what is the best electrode voltage for this? I know from article nr. 3, for wider electrode spacing, you need higher voltage. I know 10-12 volts good for 37mm spacing.
5- @cfnisbet says on blog "1 ma per square centimetre of submerged anode area for the suggested current when processing DW hot.
10 ma per square inch of submerged anode area when processing DW hot.
2 or 3 ma per sq inch of anode area when processing cold."
I will do the process cold, after it finished will heat it to the 60°c than will add the RA. In this case what is the current i need with my square wire?
