1. A system for transferring energy, the system comprising a hydrogen gas source to provide hydrogen gas into a recirculation duct, wherein the recirculation duct comprises a pump to circulate the hydrogen gas around the recirculation duct and a control nozzle to form a jet of the hydrogen gas; an electrical device to provide energy into the jet of hydrogen gas so as to form hydrogen atoms; a heat exchanger within the recirculation duct downstream of the electrical device, onto which the flowing jet of hydrogen gas impacts; and an electromagnetic field source to subject the region of the jet of hydrogen gas between the electrical device and the heat exchanger to a magnetic or electric field, wherein the electrical device to form the hydrogen atoms includes a tungsten electrode and a power supply to electrically heat the tungsten electrode.
