seems an expensive installation for a relatively low power generation.

Did he state the cost? If it’s supplying 100% of the house power and particularly if it’s under a generation tariff, then seems to be exactly what I’d want. I’m quite jealous as it happens

thanks for posting. some very late thoughts for you and your subs. this installation is great, except . . . the MANIFOLD for the jet delivery piping is a disaster. a LOT of energy is being lost in that manifold. and wouldn't three jets per be as good. hope there was a discount on this installation. 350el, you may have followed powerspout's model, this time. next time, use a more efficient plumbing design. cheers

Very nice for a low head solution to power needs. Are you satisfied with the Power Spout turbines so far? I have considered buying them for when I do my project but have not got enough data on them yet. It looks like the more the merrier? Jim

The lousy in feed to the pen stock is the reducer of psi, a solid head of water would not have air and provide a smother and stronger psi to the turbines.

@@HarryL2020 Still haven't got a clue have you? If you has an electric bill of say £1,000 a year, which is close to what mine is. For the investment of say a few hundred pounds, time, effort and then parts investment of a few thousand to offset a supply by 2 Kw per hour, or 48Kwh a day potential... "do the math" how much is that in domestic supply that you can offset? The average household pulls 14 Kw per day off the grid, if you are producing 48 Kw a day, then your pumping in to the grid and going to get money back off the utilities. In a couple of years, its paid for itself, the maintenance of the system, PART OF THE DEAL you idiot, so that cost HAS to be built in and most reasonable people would buy what they need and then spares on top so that they are able to effect repairs, only twats build a system that uses up all the parts, leaves a unit on back up, etc, sizing of systems, poor utilisation of resources and too many people not taking advantage of things like tesla turbines that require very little input energy to get spinning up to 200,000 rpm or something silly. The amount of energy and torque you can pull from a boundary layer method is possibly a better way to go. High torque means you can spin up a fly wheel which means you can then use inertial on a generator or the set up designed so that the energy is used to pump the water up to a higher elevation. Gravity can be utilised in many ways and energy extracted at various points. I have looked at all sorts of methods of energy recovery and hydro is just one area that can be improved upon through people experimenting and also applying, so fucking what if the set up is a low yield, so friggin what, whats your beef with it? Not good enough? Overly opinionated aren't we... One mans goose and all that buddy. So what part of cretin are you? The butt hole or the bellend? Snowflake, ffs, go blow your penstock...

Why wouldn't you just run the back pipe into the mill pond? Like have it draw from maybe a foot or two off the bottom of the pond. There would be no air bubbles, no debris, and you would benefit from a lot more pressure.

Recently a hydro has been installed in my town, I done calculations should make approximately 16KW. 140x20x9.81=26,468 with %60 efficiency = 15880 rounded to 16000 = 16KW

that is awesome... wonder whats the price tag on that project all together and what you think is the life span of it? So far, I seen hundreds of nice videos with Turgo and Pelton turbines... just wondering, how long it goes until the bearings are burned out, any idea? I mean, the rpm's are incredible...
@350energylimited88 жыл бұрын
+Marty M. Hi, This project has now been running for a year and we may replace the bearings as part of its annual maintenance regime, depending on how they are doing. The main bearings are standard cartridge bearings available for a few pounds. The turbines also have an automated grease lubrication system that needs an annual recharge. Typical project costs depend hugely on site specific factors but might typically cost >£20k
