A wonderfully clear presentation of the miracle of water generated electricity. 👍

Yeah that's so true

Great video. I'm investing in companies that create renewable energy and one company does it by investing in Hydroelectric facilities. It's good to know how the whole process goes. Renewable energy is the future, it's going to help all of us and our children. Thank you!

[@sigwx1]

I always had that doubt: What happens when the water level is lower than the pipe intake ( ex on a drought season) all the system shuts down waiting for the level to raise again ? If so, this type of energy generation is highly water level dependent.

[@afifataskeen8472]

Totally understandable 😊👍

[@lindakleckner215]

Do all the rotations of the turbine/generator make power? Do the rotations have to be a certain rate of speed to produce power? Or does the speed of rotations just affect how long it takes to make a certain amount of power?

[@ecbadboy101]

You can have generators with little resistance at a high RPM, make small amounts of power, or have one with high resistance at a low RPM make high amounts of power. It's all about PSI.

[@lindakleckner215]

@@ecbadboy101 So, is PSI pounds of pressure per square inch...like torch? My comment don't make sense, I only know PSI as in pressure inside a tire. So are you saying that the resistance is making the power? And resistance can be varying amounts so the power made will vary too? Given enough time, though, power can be built up? I guess I'll have to study it.

[@ecbadboy101]

@@lindakleckner215 A turbine in a hydroelectric dam will turn at a extremally consistent RPM. As long as the water is flowing though the dam.

Why are there no multi stage turbines ?? Answer the tech is available from RDP MARINE AUSTRALIA The techs will say the issues are turbine surging OR to much backpressure OR the dissolved gasses issue ALL are nonstarters So were is the price drop you can have by fitting this item ?? YES YOUKNOW WHY

[@ishitadedhia5554]

For geography homework 📚

[@yourmumhascancer343]

This might sound dumb but how do they not run out of water that flows down the dam is it connected too oceans?

[@ecbadboy101]

Connected to rivers or lakes with a river inlet. There's 2,300 hydroelectric dams in the U.S. that power all 50 states! 👍

[@astraAmit]

Sir have a doubt

who is this man guys? for project

TKS for the vid it helped me for geo

[@keelyevans4695]

So I was thinking if we were growing egads of hemp filters and filtering that water after collecting the initial energy Rush then adding the hydrogen fuel cells filtration into the safety domes we can clean so quickly we will have an effect on the land air and water plus be able to replace the oil and gas industry end the wars and fully support Tesla and the surrounding companies; the facilitation of the tunnels with regards to the tectonic plate should run simultaneous and with congruent supports for the housing transport and energy transfers both types of physical bodies let then expand out; correct.

[@natureshorts5818]

This helped a lot. Thanks

[@michaelscarn7375]

I Wonder how fish survive encounter with that turbine

[@kilangaier2949]

I'm not sure if they do but if I was the dam engineer I would have put net fences around the main water hole so that fishes are stopped from coming near the turbine area. Provided it doesn't affect the water current that rotates the turbine.

[@weneedphilosophy]

Some engineers make fish ladders to direct fish to their spawning

so how does it create the electrons

It doesn't

[@weneedphilosophy]

The electrons just flow

[@xnjn_DKkn]

no one knows, its called energy, its like about subatomic particles, like a photon, the magnetic field between the metals creates a disturb on the eletrons, that go to all of them, i think is it, idk, sorry bad english

[@simonbowman6206]

Ask yourself this question--- the energy to pump the water up to the lake IS more than the power you get out of it on the way back down plus the cost to build it SO were are we going with this idea apart from giving our money away!!
