Abstract

When a header tank 1 is full, a valve 6 below the tank 1 is opened allowing water to flow onto the cups 5 of a water wheel 4 in a generating tank 3. The water wheel 4 drives an electricity generator 8. A valve 9 is opened allowing water to flow from the generating tank 3 into a piston chamber 13. When the piston chamber 13 is full, the valve 9 is closed and a hand lever 10 is operated to push a piston 14 along the piston chamber 13 forcing the water through a one-way valve 12 into a vertical tube 11 and back up to the header tank 1. The amount of water used in one minute to turn the wheel 4 is fed back into the system, keeping the level of water in the header tank steady. Power can be generated using local labour at economic cost and without the need to burn expensive fossil fuels.

Description

Description.
I have built a working model and works as thus.
Water is stored in a high level tank (1). To get the water to the high level tank (1). Water is collected in the holding tank (3).
A stop valve (9) is opened to allow the water to flow into the piston chamber (13), when the piston chamber (13) is ful] the stop valve (9) is closed. The operating lever (10) is pushed forward towards the vertical pipe (11). The piston (14) injects the water into the vertical pipe (ii) through a one way valve (12).
When the piston (14) has reached its full stroke, the stop valve (9) is opened and the operating lever (10)is drawn back to thc start position. The withdrawing of the piston (14) sucks in water from the holding tank (3). When the piston chamber (13) is full, the stop valve (9) is closed.
The cycle starts all over again.
After several operations the vertical pipe (11) is full and the water flows into the high level tank (1).
When the high level tank (1) is full an over flow outlet (2) allows water to flow into the holding tank (3).
To start the system A stop valve (6) between the high level tank (1) and the water wheel (4) is opened allowing water to drop into the buckets (5) attached to the water wheel (4) Thus turning the wheel.
The axel (7), of the water wheel (4) is attached to the shaft of the generator (8). The water wheel (4) turning, causes the generator (8) to produce electricity.
Water from the holding tank (3) is allowed into the piston chamber (13) by opening the stop valve (9). When the piston chamber (13) is full the slop vaLve (9) is closed and the operating lever (10) is pushed forward driving the piston (14) thus injecting the water into the vertical pipe (H) through the one way valve (12).
The stop valve (9) is opened and the operating lever (10) is pulled back to the start position.
This action sucks water into the piston chamber (13).
The stop valve (9) is closed and the cycic starts all over again.
The same flow of water used every minute to produce electricity is returned to the high level tank within a minute. 2.
