Will water flow up a pipe?

[@rathishatutube]

thank god after searching for many days on this topic finally i got here and this is what i have been searching for .....thanks a lottt for uploading

I know it is pretty off topic but does anybody know a good place to stream newly released series online?

[@jasiahian7638]

@Jett Rex lately I have been using Flixzone. You can find it by googling =)

[@724Mouse]

I like to say it this way- that: the surface area of the water expands on the barrel side only because the volume is growing inside the system. The water doesn't 'flow up' so much as it expands into the barrel following an upward inclination, or something. Ty

[@christiantough5]

The engineering begin I laughed at cause I know your pain. I'm looking up videos for bit of information for a project I'm thinking about trying.

[@damionbrown1734]

Exactly the way it works with the UK hot water boiler tank perfect and I love the idea

[@kjellg6532]

Exactky the way it worked with Norwegian hot water boiler tanks 70 years ago. ;)

[@FreeLearnclass]

this is exactly what i needed thanks

[@chrismetzinger4490]

awesome description

[@bikemystic]

How is this any different than a siphon? When water is elevated (e.g. from the roof) it's always going to flow to a lower level even if it has to flow up through a pipe to get into a barrel.

[@AutoNomades]

I tought your were gonna do a debunk about these "free energy pumps", polluting result when you look for real interesting pumping systems ... Could you ? Cheers !

[@ChevyGuy70]

So can this be preformed with an ac drain line to a rain barrel? It drips roughly 8 gallons a day so is it possible to funnel water up a tube and down into the barrel. Or through a tube and up the bottom of the barrel?

[@srinigypsy]

as long as the inlet of water is higher than the outlet, both methods you mentioned will work.

[@srinigypsy]

as long as barrel has air vent

[@create-this]

Water starts from a higher point goes down makes some pressure,and yeah water to all.correct me if I'm wrong but with natural pressure water can go up only about 30 feet yes?!

[@ConHathy]

Natural water pressure can reach any height. If you have a water tank 1000ft in the air you can run water down to the ground and back and the principle of communicating vessels still applies

[@ghostwheelppk]

Water in a tube can go up to 10 to 10.4 meters (32 to 34 feet) with one end open due to atmospheric pressure. The atmospheric pressure pushing on the open end can support a column of water up to 10 meters. In this case, both ends, the barrel and the rain spout are both open to atmosphere, so both encounter equal atmospheric pressure. the water is not going up into the barrel due to atmospheric pressure, it is filling a container due to gravity, the same as filling a bathtub, a bucket, a measuring cup, a toilet. The liquid is fluid and assumes the shape of the container. The point here is that the barrel, rain spout and the pipe underneath are all part of the “container.” The water will equalize at the same level in all parts of the container, in all parts of the system or network.

[@RayWilliamJohansen]

what about drainage pipes with a bad grade ? like lets say that it has a proper slope but were the catch basin is there is a small dip, will the water be able to flow all the way to the end of the pipe ?

[@chesterwheeler279]

Water seeks it's own level..

I love that intro lol

[@VieneLea]

1:17 I've been watching some of your older videos after discovering your channel and subscribing, and honestly, each time you speak of "aerospace problems" it makes me feel like I chose a wrong degree, lol. Are there any recommended reading resources for this sort of stuff? (Not the sleep deprivation, the statics problems, lol)

[@aftech7268]

People think that they take physics are quick to assume they are smarter but knowledge is limited to how they interpret what they have learned from physics

[@kiddiescripterkiller]

You forgot to mention the only monkey wrench that can be thrown in the works... if the barrels aren't vented at the top. You show it in your diagram but don't mention it. If the barrels aren't vented, then it will only fill the pipes and barrels until what ever air can escape out the system to the fill tube, then once the inside air pressure of the pipes and barrels (depending on the design if water even gets into a barrel.) equals the water pressure at the highest fill point, then it will spill over the top fill point, but the pipes and barrels will never fill with water past that equilibrium point. On a side note, a possible design issue with his system is the amount of water collected vs the back pressure of the out flow. The roof and gutters could collect more water than can be inputted to the system, so on a really hard rain, the gutters will eventually over flow, eroding the foundation of the buildings. That is why most gutter systems use 2" x 3" rectangular or 4" round or even larger downspouts and not 1 1/2" diameter pipes.

[@idontknow898]

kiddiescripterkiller in the design (8:01), there was an overflow pipe to keep that from happening

[@kiddiescripterkiller]

@@idontknow898 Reread my first paragraph and first sentence in the second paragraph... I basically said... that he "shows it in the diagram" but "doesn't mention it"... and that is "a key factor for it to work" the way the system is designed. Some people might miss that point, since he didn't mention it. And he should have (and I should have, in my comment) mentioned that "the vent" has to be the same size pipe or larger, otherwise if it rains hard enough, the back pressure will slow the water going into the system. A lot of people don't understand the reason why plumbing has codes... Then they DIY it and wonder why when they drain their sink it takes forever or flush their toilet, it bubbles the water in a sink.

[@jeffreydahmer2110]

any person with basic physics knowledge would understand theres absolutely nothing wrong with the design

[@more2lyfdglyf412]

does this principle apply to how the bottom part of the globe is not getting drowned/floode with so much water flowing down from the top?

[@JWQweqOPDH]

No. The south pole is NOT below the northern hemisphere. The center of the Earth is below everything on Earth. Water flows down; down means somewhere closer to the center of the Earth. Down and South are NOT the same.

[@boinqity4621]

the south pole is not below the north pole, the core is below the north pole. the north and south pole are on the same level

[@disposeabledad7680]

like using weight displacement to suck water uphill.

[@gibson2623]

no it will never unlless you supply external energy, if i m wrong you gonna win the nobel prize with this video

[@rocksolid6494]

Only question remains is why one would choose between top and bottom filling?

[@ConHathy]

He's filling and draining from the same pipe and it's easier to drain from the bottom

[@jeffreydahmer2110]

unless you want to siphon from the top, or add a tap to the side, using the same pipe at the bottom is much easier and convenient

you can give it a try use screw type turbine and produced electricity and siphon the water back in the reservoir so we got energy again and again ,💥🔥💢

Thats because the molucules in the paper is attraction the water molecules its called absorption

[@trevor5290]

Question: Since Matt turns on the garden hose at the end of his vid and sprays the roof with water... could he not just leave the hose at the top of the gutter and a have a perpetually moving water circuit. In this circuit he could attach a small turbine to generate electricity. Of coarse this would be a much larger system, but could it work? Asking nicely here. Please reply the same.

[@ConHathy]

Unfortunately not, to get water above the roof you need pressure but the pressure is itself proportional to the depth of the water in the system. In other words you cant get water above the height of gutter without a pump. Boyles flask is sort of what you’re describing but it only works with carbonated liquids and will stop once all of the bubbles have escaped. Basically it’s using the bubbles as the pump but that takes up energy and eventually it runs out

[@chickenfriedfish4059]

Ok, I've been looking for a way to move water in a system like this "circulate" to plants in a set it and forget it kinda action. Is this possible to do without a pump?

[@ConHathy]

Yes, you could get water to the plants but I'm not sure how well you'd control the amount

[@GaneshmanLamathinker]

Out of issue🤔

[@anilkumarsharma1205]

are you able to harvested energy from fountain heron's fountain so we used it on very large scale model and a series of heron's fountain gives tremendous energy forever

[@ConHathy]

Unfortunately, infinite energy never works. From a brief google search, it looks like a heron's fountain has three tanks: high, low, and middle. The middle tank is full of water which is pumped up to the top by air pressure. Water then flows down to the bottom tank to create more air pressure. The problem is once the middle tank is drained all of the water ends up in the bottom and the fountain stops, you have to turn it upside down to get water back into the middle tank which takes more energy than you can get out of it.

[@idontknow898]

So I'm looking for a way to circulate water through a DIY pool heater without a pump. The problem is, the pool heater itself is elevated above to pool, and I don't know of a way to get the water to flow up through the tube without a pump. Does anyone have any ideas?

[@janbaltes2863]

As your god to change physics🤷

[@kjellg6532]

You have to lower the heater. Btw old house warming with radiators was done without any pump. Boiler in the basement and the water would self circulate.

[@megmartinez9145]

Thank you cuz I was super tired and I wasn't understanding any of that right now I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to do my Hydroponics with just natural flowing on everything and he made a very good point that it does stay at level but if he were to put a cipher on the inside of the bucket on the side it could pull out more water because I do think the weight of the water won't allow it to keep filling up after a certain point that's where I'm having problems with some of my siphoning with water pumps I'm getting very frustrated and tired on the measurements so if you can write back to me where I can message you and maybe you might have better idea what I could do cuz I'm tired of using a lot of electricity

[@joylinechelagat5603]

Hey meg Martinez did you get the solution because I am in your situation right now and I am thinking of siphoning rather than using electricity

add a one way valve your barrels will get full

You shouldn't need any valve, they will fill up before the gutter

The weight has nothing to do with it.

[@marlonvite4152]

What is powered by gravity? .... The filling up of the tank is not "powered" by gravity..... the filling up of the tank in an open fluid system happens because of pressure, in this case atmospheric pressure so, the tank can be filled with a connecting pipe from anywhere in the tank as long as the tank top is open partially or fully and as long as the tank bottom is below the water inlet level ..... in an open system where the air pressure inside the tank is the same as the air pressure on top of the water inside the pipe and if one places the tank bottom higher than the water inlet one would watch for eternity and the tank will never fill up .... the whole tank is below the water inlet of the connecting pipe and this means that for as long as there is water flowing through the inlet this could fill infinite number of tanks, as long as all tanks are bellow the inlet level not the outlet level of the connecting pipe.... going around earth this level is not an straight line but a circumference ....... why physics academics got confused? In a zero gravity (there's no zero gravity anywhere) or x gravity environment the location of the tank is irrelevant but the pressure of the inlets and outlets in any pipe is only fact relevant...... as for Matt, he is a deceiver, a liar, a trickster for he uses a garden hose that is connected to a source with higher water pressure spraying water higher than the water inlet in the pipe in question, there are lots of idiots out there ..... I am one in measure or more and less than others.

[@EQINOX187]

Everything you said was utter rubbish and displays an utter lack of understanding of how atmospheric pressure works, we are all under equalized atmospheric pressure and that is why we do not get pulled out a window when we open it or sucked down a toilet and in order for atmospheric pressure to exert a force there has to be a pressure differential this is basic high school grade understanding, something you can test or well look it up as there is no shortage of vids is if you have a clear box that is filled with and is open to the same atmosphere as what is around it then it is equalized and nothing happens, pull a vacuum in that box and now you have atmospheric pressure pushing on that box as it wants to fill the void and so when you open the valve the atmosphere rushes in and then stops when it has once again equalized. So if you put a hose on the side of that box with a stop valve in the on position and then put a hose from the valve into a bucket of water 2 foot below it lets say, will acording to you atmospheric pressure will magically push the water up and into the box but in reality nothing will happen as the atmospheric pressure in the box is the same outside, however if you close the valve on that hose and then pull a vacuum in that box and then open the valve on the hose then atmospheric pressure would push the water up the hose into the vacuum void in the box but again once the inside equalizes with the outside the flow would stop, now if we back step and simply raise that bucket up to the level of the box with the box and the bucket at the atmospheric pressure the water would start to flow and fine a common level under gravitational force, and so for you ignorant comment to actually work and for atmospheric pressure to be the reason then those barrels would need to be under a constant vacuum which obviously they are not and since the atmospheric pressure inside the barrel is the exact same as outside the only thing that is exerting force is gravity

[@marlonvite4152]

In the open, we are not under the same atmospheric pressure, and atmospheric pressure is not the same on the same spot every hour either... atmospheric pressure at sea level is highest and less the further up the land that we go.

[@EQINOX187]

@@marlonvite4152 I never said we where all under the same atmospheric pressure what i said was " we are all under equalized atmospheric pressure ", so sure the higher you go the pressure will drop and so if you are at the top of a mountain the pressure in an open barrel is the same as the air pressure around the barrel, and if you have the same open barrel at the bottom of the mountain then the pressure in the barrel will still be the same as air pressure around it, so no mater where you go on earth you are always under equalized air pressure unless that is you are in a pressurized container like a plane

[@marlonvite4152]

@EQINOX187 when you used the word "equalized" as in "made equal" or the "made the same" and consequently you tried to explain that you were in a differect context you sound like religious idiots going back and forth in their books trying to explain nonsense beliefs for ignorants, weak and superstitious .... I got you man, you are smart and intelligent and easy to contextualize .... you may be a genius too like most of us, potentially, stay cool.

[@khalidismail4829]

Haha interesting

[@portumaan]

Very good video with a very good explanation. I think that some of the "haters" could be referring to is this: scientificgamer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/capillary.jpg Could you comment on that? I think it works because the diameter of the barrel and pipes would have to be maybe 10000 times wider up to the last pipe going up to the gutter for this to make the water go up so it spills out of the gutter.
