The problem would be to keep the high-voltage electricity out of the
cooling water. The water-cooled quenched gap that I was discussing in
the thread about "Quenched gap" uses water tanks with no circulation.
The water may boil, but keeps the gap temperature around 100 degrees
at most while there is enough water.
