  • Did you know you can create kilovolts of electric potential just by dripping water slowly into a bucket ? Find out how in this video.

    I built 1 in my shed @ home. Difference was i filled a Boxing bag with water. Dripped it through ring's ontop ov each other with 1 flow. Bucket was negative looped with positive ring to batterree.

    With a little tricky design you can beat 10 kV by about a factor of three. If you used curved supports for the rings and let the generator charge a Leyden jar instead, you can get at least 30 kV (based on spark length).
    The very limited power available from the low head and flow of the water means this isn't a viable source of generation for electrical energy as we usually think of it -- but there's no reason one of these couldn't be used to power a TEA laser (the UV beam from which can then excite a dye laser to produce a visible beam). I've seen one work off a Wimshurst machine; this has a little lower voltage, but it only takes about 5 kV to make the laser cavity discharge in a TEA laser, so this ought to work -- and as a bonus, the laser discharge won't completely draw down the Kelvin generator's charge, so it won't take long to start building charge separation again after each pulse.

      Yes, but the most important question. If I put my tongue on the contacts can I (un)Safely discharge it? 😂😂

    If your container has 1 liter of water, and the height is 1 meter. The flow rate at 1 liter/hour. That is 1 kg/3600 seconds. At 9.8 (Joules/kg)/meter.
    Watts_maximum = MassFlowRate*GravitationalAcceleration*Height = (1 kg/3600 seconds) * ((9.8 Joules/kg)/meter) * (1 meter)
    Watts_maximum is about 2.72 milliWatts
    Watts = Volts*Amperes = (10,000 Volts) * Current
    Current_maximum = (2.72E-3 Watts/10000 Volts) = 2.72 E-7 Amperes = 272 nanoAmperes
    ( 2.72E-7 Coulombs/second) = (1 kg/3600 second)/(Constant_kg_per_Coulomb)
    Constant_kg_per_Coulomb = (1 kg/3600 second)/( 2.72E-7 Coulombs/second) = 1021.24183 (Kilograms/Coulomb)
    FaradaysConstant = AvogadrosNumber*ElectronCharge = (6.02214076E23 particles/mole)*(1.602176634E-19 Coulombs/Electron)
    FaradaysConstant = 96485.3321233 Coulombs/Mole
    FaradaysConstant = 96,485,332.1233 KiloCoulombs/KiloMole
    MolecularWeightWater = 18.01528 Kilograms/KiloMole
    PH water is about 1E-7 moles Hydrogen ions per liter (1000 grams/18.01528 grams/mole) = 55.5084351 Moles Water
    1E-7 moles/55.5084351 moles = 1.801528E-9 Hydrogen ions per neutral molecules of H2O.
    But breaking up the droplets causes frictional charge separation, and that can be measured by measuring the current in your experiment with a nanoAmpere meter of some sort. But could it be that the charge is just the hydrogen ions already there but getting separated?
    CHECK ME. I get tired and it is hard to remember all the constants. Use CoData and a spreadsheet or Jupyter notebook. There are about 20,000 colleges and universities and most are on the Internet. And 100s of thousands of high schools. I could do these calculations in middle school. And NONE of those many groups are working globally on making sure the thousands of duplicate presentations is consistent. Get serious please.

    Did you measure the pH of the water in both canisters? They should be different right?
    Also what is the reason the voltage does not increase above 10-12 kV?

    • @VoidHalo
      @VoidHalo 7 месяцев назад

      Why would the PH be different?

    • @6022
      @6022 7 месяцев назад

      It's a point. pH is the log of the concentration of hydrogen ions, so the few free hydrogen ions in solution would be strongly directed to one container only. I don't know much about how this would work in a system with an overall static charge though. @@VoidHalo

      Yeah, I'm sure bro sent the water in for a genetic pregnancy test too. What kind of question is that hotdog boy? 😂 Jk

    This seems to have a high voltage low current. But how would analogue voltmeter detect this? How would an analogue voltmeter detect the voltage but higher currents? An analogue voltmeter determines the emf by how much current is passing in its coils?

    What if the water isn't de ionized? Just wondering because they theorized the Pyramids utilized this method...

    • @morpher44
      @morpher44 2 года назад +1

      see Pyramid Code documentary. I think evaporating water below would have negative ions attracted UP thru the structure toward the apex to interface with the sky. If the granite is also emitting ions (slightly radioactive), that helps it go as well.

    psst. now, after the pails have been charged, suspend a conductive disc from a firm linkage, aka pendulum, which should oscillate between the two pails. thus, you have created a clock which was originally a method of measuring the length of time the device remained operational for proof of perpetual motion. the device was marketed as a power-drain instead to consumers for profit by the electrical-industrial complex. have the fun.
