Gerard The siphon height is limited by atmospheric pressure (it is the weight of the atmosphere which will push the water into the vacuum created by the water...
From what I remember from my physics classes many years back.....a siphon can maximum work up the height of 9.8m....so I think your 85m will be impossible to...
The water in a siphon is supported by atmospheric pressure. This means you can never siphon water up a vertical distance of more than 10m - in theory. And, in...

Dear Members, Thank you for all your help, the information provided has been conclusive. Martin Leahy was looking for some further information regarding the...
Hello everyone, I'm quite new in this group, but I've read really interesting discussions about micro-hydro and I thought you could have an opinion/advice on...
Damien: The solution can be simple if the hydro generator is an Induction Motor as generator . The solution is to start the Diesel Generator and have a...

Dear Wouter Drinkwaard, Yes, as I don't know specific history cases in detail, my friends and members of HIDRORED, most probably can give you advice and...
Hello Dam, I guess you have to use a shunt brushless self-excited synchronous generator for the hydro unit, with built in AVR. Yes, starting the Diesel genset...
Thank you Nando for your quick answer! The hydro generator will be an Induction generator with a bank of capacitors. As the power is quite low (<20kW), power...
DAMIEN: Do not worry about the questions, worry about the best procedure to "marriage" both systems. ELC = IGC they are the same. Since you have an Induction...

All, Anyboby know where I can get a few Permanent magnet generators between 100 and 1000 W. The price we were quoted for 1000W was €2000! Ginsonic seem to...
Regarding Permanent Magnet generators, I am also curious about the Baldor line of d.c. motors, would these be suitable as generators as well? They certainly...
I have been trying to find information on how to setup a system to generate electricity that I can then use to feed back into my on-grid meter in order to...

navitron in the UK sell PMGs for wind turbines and water turbines. also flebay? ... From: Martin.Leahy To: microhydro@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, October...
ok i have a few large greenhouses. The plan is to get a large above ground pool burry it halfway and get a pump to pump the fish water into the house to feed...
Dear Mr Martin, We are manufacturers of Permanant magnet alternators with inverters to give the required out put voltage even if the speed varies up to...
I am very interested on this matter, if anyone have more information in this concern, or somebody can recommend the source It will be welcome, because...
Don Just for the record, those DC voltages are derived from rectified/unfiltered 120 and 240VAC. These motors are designed to run from legacy SCR controllers....
We have a lot of experience in using Baldor DC motors as generators for micro-hydro applications. A comprehencisve guide to the design and operational issues...

HI Martin. I can also reccommend ecoinnovations' smartdrive units. I've had one running in Leitrim for the last 4 years. Great unit, never gives any trouble....
Richard: The information you supply, indicates that the power is minimal. You need to determine the water volume, in GPM ( gallon per minute ) or liter/sec ,...

So you want a pump to be powered by a small water wheel, which is being fed by the same pump - oh - and extract more energy for a fan as well. Excellent - you...
Thanks to all who have replied. We don't want to use a permanent magnet motor (although much more available and cheaper) as a generator because this requires...
I have a one horsepower Baldor permanent magnet d.c. motor used as a generator in a micro hydro, in service for 9 years. They seem very robust( still original...
its not like i was saying i wanted to power my home lol. anyways where can i learn more about this stuff where it makes sense? sorry i new and i just had an...
Hi Have a look at the http://www.ecoinnovation.co.nz/ website – Michael makes some very good generators Cheers Peter _____ From: microhydro@yahoogroups.com...
Martin: You need to explain what your plans are to be able to suggest the proper idea, may be what you think is not the best path or may need a re-thinking to...
