Hey guys this is great I'm very impressed ....$50 is brilliant.... for me its not about the power you have produced, its that your thinking outside the circle and that's where all great technology comes from ....once again congratulations
I can't believe the number of stupid comments I'm reading on here about how low the generator output is, and how it doesn't make sense to use city water etc. etc. It is a PROJECT people, and a successful one. Give people a computer to hide behind and let the ignorant comments fly. Nice work on the genny guys. Well done.
its too late to make a difference I know, but I believe HDD magnets are NS on one end and SN on the other, meaning if you pass the whole thing over a coil, it mostly cancels itslef out. You would do better with a magnet with a single polarization. Either that or only let half the HDD magnet get near the coils. Also alternating S and N facing the coils works better than just S S S. in case anyone is looking at this for their own science project.
im in 8th grade trying to do this this video realy helps i just have trouble about getting an idea about getting the water back to the resavoir and keep using the the power my science teacher thinks im crazy totry and tackle this project i found ur project from google search and its realy helpful thanks for posting it
I've been wanting to build something like this and connect it to my main water line to my house. I figured that the water is going to flow by use any way, so why not use that force to use.
that would mean leaving a hose running all the time which is pretty wastefull. better to put one in the main street sewer line with a diverter to keep the "solids" out of it. This would work especially well in a hilly city
@itsandbits1 the water would be contained within the system and be brought back to the water tank. No waste. The problem I think I would have would be to keep the generator spinning and make a case that would hold the water pressure. The sewer line is to brod and wouldn't allow enough pressure nor flow to turn a generator. If anything, a sewer system could be converted into a biogas system and be used in that manner. The trapping of "solids" would cause maintainance problems.
you would have to use more energy than you produced to pump the water back to the tank. Have you ever seen an undershot water wheel? it wouldn't plug and the rpm can be geared up if you have some torque.
@itsandbits1 The outlet of the water would flow becuase the inlet would be forced by the city water, no back flow. this presure is already there and is aways going to be there unless the city water comes for repairs or you don't pay your bill. There are a few devices like this used to power those sensors on automatic sinks. I am not sure what you are explaing about the undershot water wheel.
@ssj7warrior I don't want to hijack this guys vid any more but I'm just saying , the power is coming from the water pressure that we have already put energy into to pressurize so no free lunch
@itsandbits1 Maybe I didn't explain myself too well. I do that from time to time. The water is going to flow anyhow through the house lines. If I make some type of container that has a generator connected to it, it will be additional energy. Yes, I know it takes energy to put in the generator from the line but it would be free as in it wouldn't cost me money. I know there is an input of energy (motion) that is converted to an output of energy(electric). It will use the motion.
The interesting thing, is that this is about as efficient as you can make a waterwheel + generator, since there's no gears or belts to add friction and sap energy from the wheel, the only friction is the bearings and they can be made very efficient indeed.
Offcourse, since this is a school project, the manufacturing quality will be low due to no precision tools and lack of knowledge and experience. But they got the basics just right.
Hi! What is the gauge of the copper wire you're coils were wound with? And approximately how many turns did you aim for each coil? The link to the instructions are helpful, but you've obviously built a superior model and just need a few more details to help replicate something similar, also for a physics project. Lastly, would you have any suggestions for the wire supplier? Thanks!
@narutogeese1 Well this is a college physics project. We completed it in first place accomplishing all objectives prescribed in the outline, and within the assigned budget. We're not trying to power an entire city. Perhaps you have designed a similar project with a similar budget ($50 USD) that produces higher wattage? If you have, please post a link!
@TheDamHeroes Hey guys this is great I'm very impressed ....$50 is brilliant.... for me its not about the power you have produced, its that your thinking outside the circle and that's where all great technology comes from ....once again congratulations
Hey guys, I know a lot of you have asked how to build the generator and such so I am posting the site I got my ideas from. It has plenty of instructions and will give you a basic setup of how to build this.
can u pls. explain if how did u make it.. coz if its okay im gonna use this for my investigatory project in physics.. i really need it. thank u so much!
@runner784 First of all the water is coming from a bucket sitting on higher elevation. Second, this was a project for "school" with limitations and a $50 spending limit. The water could easily have come from a river or lake if we were aiming for that.
the rotator handle should be hooked up to a dolor-store cart toy motor to allow the motor to rotate itself but still creating energy for other things...
I see so many using inefficient ways, like no ballbearings, or chains and belts to transfer power to the generator, but this is the basic way to do it. One wheel, two ballbearings, one generator, all set up on a single axle. Only things that gets worn out is the whaterwheel blades and ballbearings. Both of which can be made to last a long time. :)
and when the water is finished? than what? :D i think this was allready invented long time ago, long time
