Gravity Power Anyone???
You must click on all three. Short and easy reads.

This other Idea.....
Hi All,
Here is the other idea without using any pump...this will continue flow and you can built as scale as you want... Sorry this only quick drawing... Step one as pic 1.jpg Fill up the tank with 80% of the capacity (left 20% for air) all must be sealed.. close all valve (1-4 valve) all pipe use same size ..for 55 gallon drum size your maximum pipe size should be 5/8" step two as pic 2.jpg open valve #1, fill up the pipe as picture shown then close the valve back. Step three as pic. 3.jpg Open valve #2 full then open valve #3 slowly..wait for a few second till decrease the flow from valve #3 ( I recommend between 5-10 second for 55 gallon drum size) to create vacuum condition. Step four as pic.4.jpg Open valve #4....then you will have water flowing from inlet pipe to the thank and the output flow from the thank increasing by slowly.... the flow is depend of how long the inlet pipe..I'll recommend no more than 10 mtr below the tank. Hope you all understand with the explanation because English is not my first language. Regards, Selamatg |

how about the energy needed for the pump to fight the air trying to get in?
this sounds too good to be true guys. Is there an actual movie of this machine? Because drawing with paint is one thing. Making something actually work is another. |

So, if I understand correctly, the gravity pulls the water out form the big tank, creating vacuum in the same time. The vacuum then pulls the water up form the other pipe and refills the tank and so on. In other words we have a water pump, that works forever? Did I understand right?

You are right, that how the work...continue as the vacuum stay there, in other word no leaking in the system. but the important thing is do not open valve #4 before you sure vacuum create in the tank by looking the low flow from valve #3 or you can put vacuum gauge on top of the tank. regards, Selamatg |

how can the vacuum created by the water be strong enough to lift up water that is positioned lower than the main tank?
I'm sorry if i sound skeptical, but I still find it hard to believe that a bottle and a hose can win the one watt challenge. Because if it does what you say it does. Than hooking up a water wheel-generator on the flow would be a piece of cake. |

very important you should create high vacuum condition first before open valve #4. regards, selamatg |

I just did a small scale test, nothing special, just two tubes in a plastic 1l bottle. Does not work, because it is easier for the vacuum to suck air from the outlet tube than to suck up water from the inlet tube. So far I do not see how this can work without a water pump on the outlet that does not allow the air to get in the tank.

But, I really did 14 years ago in small setup and work good. maybe your pipe / hose output to short because that happen with me before. Also, we cannot expect for big flow with this system... the other info I don't think any electricity in the village where I saw that device working. I will try again when have spare of time later. Seem very interest to try again. selamatg |

Yes if you make the hose so long it goes to the same level of the small water container it will actually flow. But since there is no height diffrence all your potential is lost. And all you will have built is a siphon. Think about it if this would have worked the romans (skilled with water and waterflow) would have powered the world 3000 years ago. I would say... don't waste your time... but.... make me a liar, and prove me wrong. ![]() |

Thanks for your comment. I do believe that gravity / vacuum pump will work, maybe I forget something. I just try using plastic bottle and didn't work because the bottle cannot handle the vacuum. I will try again sometime with proper setup....Understood what you say this "maybe" waste of my time, but I will try again sometime. and will post the result.btw...below is link for other alternative http://ewb.students.mtu.edu/guatemal..._ram_pumps.pdf regards, selamatg |
