      why would you think that wouldn't work?
      Pressure is pressure
      So if two or three feet of drop is enough to operate one ram pump.. why would the even higher pressure water coming out of that ram pump not be enough to operate a second one.. when it comes to pressure? Now Flo might be a problem to maintain..
      But if you can push water up a hill then it has more pressure than your head pressure on the first pump.
      So you just need to make sure you can provide the gallons per minute necessary as you definitely have the pressure.
      Have you ever noticed a ratio of head height, to water lost?
      In other words if you have 80 ft of drop instead of 2 ft of drop, does less water flow through the valve before it slapped shut because of the higher pressure.
      I am just curious if the flow and gallons per minute remains the same no matter what the pressure.. my theory is less gallons per minute at higher pressure would slam the valve shut because it's the same amount of energy with higher pressure and lower flow.
      Just curious if you've tested that

    Try this: 1-1/4" pump with a long drive pipe at the bottom of the hill feeding at least 20ft of drive pipe into a 1/2" pump. You want the maximum head pressure into the first pump, the second pump needs no head pressure generated by elevation and can be flat. 7:1 and 7:1 multiplied together I bet you can get 49:1 output. Don't forget to air up the innertube in the second pump extra because it will be operating at much greater pressures.

    Add a storage tank to each pump on the input side. When each tank fills up. Then start the next pump. Make a reservoir for waste water collection at each pump. So waste water could feed a smaller system.
    Nothing is ever going to be perfect but you are very diligent. If there is a solution you are the right person to find it. Great video.

    Neat, thanks for running this test.
    Direct piping them in series like this is not much different from your test of having 2 waste valves on a single pump (April 2018)
    You've already tested a 1-1/4 pump filling the supply bucket for a 1/2 pump (April 2015) to get 2-stage lift to pump higher. And you've tested catching the discharge from the waste valve to run a second pump (Jun 2020) and get more volume of water delivered. I think all bases have finally been covered.

    Thank you for all the information on this stuff! Back when I was interested in it, before the web, these pumps were pure magic to me. You have clarified a lot and your experiments are awesome. Maybe you have tried this but, what about a lager delivery pipe to capitalize flow loss and the ram effect? Also, what about a daisy chain? Pump up to a tank and then have that tank run another pump to yet another tank up higher, etc. You would have to figure out a way to keep air out of the downstream (upstream) pumps or gauge the flow somehow. I have never messed with these but always been fascinated. Thanks again for taking the time to provide these experiments and videos. Please continue!

  • @JesusisLord-7A
    @JesusisLord-7A 3 года назад +7

    I have a question. I have watched you enough to kind of understand how one pump works. The pump works off of the pressure from gravity-fed water going into the pump causing the pump to push water out and even uphill at a higher pressure. That is causing backpressure for the pump to stay charged. With the second pump being lower than the first pump, the backpressure is lost when the second pump cycles. If a pump is supposed to push water uphill, shouldn't the second pump be uphill? The first pump should supply the second pump with the same water pressure as if it was gravity fed. Does this sound correct?

    What would happen if you ran pump #1 uphill to a reservoir to “restart” the ram pump system again? Basically running two ram pumps in tandem but not quite directly connected to the same pressure system. Two fully independent ram pumps that just happen to be using the same water but not the same pressure. 2’ initial head pressure leads to Uphill 30’ down 2’ from that point should gain you another 30’ lift, yes?!? So hanging another bucket where your hose ends 2’ above ground, connect another ram should gain you another 30’ of lift.

  • @normanharris1092
    @normanharris1092 3 года назад +5

    To me the best scenario would be the 1st pump near your source supplying water to a tank for the 2nd pump up the hill near the max lift. Then the waste from the higher pump can be cycled back to the source of the bottom. I think one could quite successfully run a relay that way with the pumps scaling down. Water is fast becoming an important resource.

    • @KateMedland

    • @navalapolin94
      @navalapolin94 Год назад

      I'm sure your experiments are good, I assume in this case you are in a scenario you pump to one place then use the other pump to send water further, assuming one ramp pump can not send that far enough, otherwise doesn't have sense one pump delivery feeding a second pump, there can be another scenarios also, one pipe feeding two pumps and one delivery outlet, that would awesome, more pressure, more water. Good job. I have never done it but I'm learning a lot when I go back to my new house so I can implement it.

Thanks for your time, I'd love to hear your thoughts! Side note, maybe have two pumps in parallel and only hydro in line with one?

    • @mikegreene6052
      @mikegreene6052 2 года назад

      There is no point in the first pump, as it is uphill from the second pump. Just removing that pump would increase the pressure on the second pump. to put 2 of these in series and make sense,, the first pump should be lowest. It should pump uphill to a reservoir similar to the first pump's reservoir. That should feed the second pump to give it pressure. The second pump them carries the water farther uphill. You could also capture the waste water, from the second pump, and feed it back down to the reservoir of the first pump.

  • @jayjay6804
    @jayjay6804 3 года назад

    A ram pump is designed as a tuned system. The reverse pulse (up the delivery pipe) to the intake standpipe requires a particular length to operate efficiently if at all. The velocity of the pulse wave and cycle period determines the drive pipe length. a rule of thumb is a 10:1 ratio of water used to water delivered so you should expect to get very little water at high pressure delivered out of the second ram pump in this configuration. Consider shortening the second drive pipe and limiting the waste valve stroke accordingly. Thank you for the interesting experiment!

  • @drorbenami
    @drorbenami 3 года назад +1

    Seth, what you need to do is send the water down 1 meter and flow it into the double ram pump which should allow you to send the water up, let’s say 4 meters. Then you use the flow from that water to drop one meter and feed a third ramp pump and send the water up an additional 4 meters…..for a total of 6 meters. In other words: the flow from the new water source created by the double ramp pump should be sufficient to power the 3rd ramp pump.

  • @hianticua

    Series ram pumps. Is it possible to have the second ram pump drive pipe cut shorter or nearer to the 1st ram pump? The drive line of the 2nd pump will then be having a higher input water pressure and therefore the delivery pipe of the 2nd pipe will have a greater flow rate.

  • @robgad2271
    @robgad2271 Год назад

    The second pump is using the relief valve as the open air source every time the first one cycles. The theory on ram pumps is the pump's lift is proportional to the amount of water drop in height, in this case, the source to the first pump needs a longer drop or a large source pi9pel not a larger pump.

  • @scooterdrue

    the check valve is most likely not fully closing, and bleeding down to the second pump. i believe you would need a stand pipe inbetween first and second pump, with the height of the stand pipe above the initial head.
    secondly, you must run a larger first pump.
    thirdly, the fist pump needs back pressure, against the check valve in order to work properly. see above.

    It is interesting that it does partly cycle correctly. Maybe you could look at a large pump feeding an elevated tank giving your more drop for a second small pump?

    Seems that there are too many cooks in the kitchen lol.
    Fluids stay in equilibrium when in a closed system, so when the drive pipe is closed the lower pump doesn't build pressure; when the higher pump is cycling the lower pump builds pressure ONLY when the drive pump of the lower ram is closed.
    Open the higher pump so pressure builds, then once the pressure is high enough open the delivery valve in the lower one.

    I'm also thinking to put the second RAM pump at the same height or somewhat uphill from the first pump, and to have the second one be a smaller size. The output of these pumps is higher pressure but lower flow rate than the input. Maybe for testing use a flexible hose between the 2 pumps so you can vary the position of the second pump more easily.

      I think we might end up with a "part 2" to explore this some more, since it was a little mixed. I hope we do at least.

    what if the first pump was low and the 2nd pump higher

    I'd be curious if you could scavenge enough waste water from the first to run the second pump

    Update your bucket with a flow valve to a bigger blue barrel 50gal and level it with a 45 angle pipe. Increase the pipe size by half at least, so if 1" bump up to 1.5". Create more gravity pressure up stream and increase flow dynamics of the larger pipe reducing down.

    Isnt the whole idea to send water to a higher elevation? Having water flow downhill and create a small amount of pressure seems kinda normal.
    U said the drop from the bucket to the first pump was 3 feet but the water was only getting pumped less than a foot high…
    Also shudnt the waste water valve be downstream from the air tank? That way when the waste water valve shuts from the flow of water, the resulting water hammer reverses flow and has more force on the air tank.

      My thoughts exactly. There is no point in the first pump, as it is uphill from the second pump. Just removing that pump would increase the pressure on the second pump. to put 2 of these in series and make sense,, the first pump should be lowest. It should pump uphill to a reservoir similar to the first pump's reservoir. That should feed the second pump to give it pressure. The second pump them carries the water farther uphill. You could also capture the waste water, from the second pump, and feed it back down to the reservoir of the first pump.

      @@LandtoHouse Woohoo! That's great news! I'll take one! As soon as you list it I'll buy it! I need to pump wastewater up to flood irrigate and I want a battery of 5 of 6 to pump tons of water up 20ft. One of the Irrigation districts back in the day before electric pumps had a battery of pumps to pump up 8ft and fill a huge canal for irrigation use in the Lower Yakima Valley.

    WHAT IF YOU FEED THE SECOND PUMP FROM THE WAST VALVE OF THE FIRST PUMP ? YOU MIGHT USE A 3/4 " PUMP TO FEED A 1/2" PUMP. I WONDER WHAT THE OUTPUT OF THE 2 WOULD BE THEN ? ALSO COULD YOU LEAVE A OPENED STAND PIPI AT THE TOP OF THE 1/2" FEED PIPE BY THE WAST VALVE SO IT WILL NOT HYDROLOCK ?

  • @VagishaDas
    @VagishaDas Год назад

    You need 4:1 in diameter to work well. And the water not need to drop. The second pump will cick faster too. But the 20 foot pipe is required between the pumps. The output should be around 40 - 75psi or 3-5 bar. All these from a 3 foot drive pipe elevation. The output water is only 10% of the original input. For an 2inch input pipe will take 14 gallona minute and deliver 30% yo the second 0.5inch ram pump. The final output will be around 3 liter or 3/4gallon. Theoretically it should work with a 1 inch pump too, but it just fit to each other.

    Hi sir,
    I had made a Ram pump of 1" .
    I would like to pump the water up to 60 feet hight and 500 meter long .
    Please tell me the head pressure hight and dry pipe length require for that. Please reply the msg .

  • @doityourself7664
    @doityourself7664 3 года назад

    I think the second one should be alittle bit high than the first one to work. Because the way you test it the water just flow down to the secound one. Just my idea a someone from Belize.

    Ram pump with a V pump for the waste water, could you try that?? 😀

  • @selador11
    @selador11 3 года назад

    The only fair system to set up, would be the exact same system, twice. Two supplies, two feeds. Two returns. All sizes equal. But then we already know that would double the amount of delivered water. Any other setup is going to be using two identical pumps and getting less than double the delivery.

    2 in parallel and one in series to get maximum output height!!!
    Possibly

    I did not read all the other comments, my stroke prevents my reading... The reason waste valve 2 cycles but wast valve 1 above it dose not as its creating a vacuum pulling it down. That also is the cause of all the additional air pockets. At least that is my best guess. Its sucking water and air from valve 1.

    Your water reservoir is a bucket which is unable to create pressure on the basis of its small volume you must use a bigger water reservoir

    • @LandtoHouse
      @LandtoHouse  2 года назад

      Water pressure is based on water height not volume. The bucket is a little over 1' tall so that adds around
      .433psi
