When I was looking up "brown's gas" on google I found one of his patents for a gas generator that worked that way. He had an assembly suspended completely immersed in water:
- a generally horizontal and rectangular insulating housing with: - vertical plates as dividers and: - A hole at the top of each "cell" to let the gas bubble out and: - A hole in the bottom of each "cell" to let the water come in. - The whole thing suspended in water (in an non-conductive container) with power wires connected to the end plates.
The whole thing sets up a potential gradient along the water and most of the current flows between the plates down the stack of cells rather than around them or in-and-out the holes. (You could extend the insulating housing or nearly close it over the end plates to minimize the current going end-to-end around the cell - and also minimize the galvanic corrosion of the wiring to the electrodes.)[ Parent ]

Now its sealed at each plate so that the water can't move between each "cell."
Now this website has good information about creating a cell however it is a website that believes in "ou" power. and thats why I left and stopped going there.lol http://www.oupower.com/phpBB2/ They do get annoying for all their ou power crap. REAL ANNOYING.
Hopefully that helps... Plus many of their designs can be cheaper easier and more compact. And Effeciency can be better(with or with out "ou power".ha).
