pulser pump video (Simplest pump in the world)
 

My brother has just sent me short avi videos and pictures of a pulser
pump back in Ireland. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pulserpump/files/
They show the pumping of water clearly. Hopefully he will send me more
of it pumping quite a bit higher. (He just has to add a section of
pipe to the top of the 3/4 inch pipe to go higher). There are pictures
from him in the picture album section too.
Please note that this pump is powered by a tiny stream falling a small
distance, has no moving parts and can pump to over 7 meters high!
Imagine what a decent sized river could do!

My brother has sent me 2 more video clips (avi format) which show the
pump in action a little better. You can download them at the link
below (avi format which windows computers play).

By the way, Gordon Cougar, lots of people round the world have lots of
water flowing by every day. And they cannot use the waterpower because
it isnt falling at least 2 meters or because it costs an arm and a leg
to devellop their hydropower site. Another small point that you
completely miss is that you cannot pump ALL the water in any stream.
It is illegal.
Another small point is that the pulser pump is more than a water pump.
Efficiency means what exactly? If it costs 3 or 4 hundred dollars to
devellop an unused hydropower resource, and it pumps water for free
for the next 15 years, maybe it is efficient. Perhaps there are carbon
credits for all the coal or oil that you are saving too. Financial
efficiency is the only efficiency that counts for making devellopment
decisions.
Imagine if you will, an electical pump pumping water from the same
stream. It is driven by a huge power plant many miles away. and it
only uses 15% or less of the energy from the burning coal or oil to
pump water! (The power plant itself is less than 40% efficient and
that 40% very quickly dwindles before it gets to your pump).

It is also one of the most inefficient pumps in the world. If you have lots
of water going by and you need a little it works.

Sorry Gordon. I guess I am too defensive! In the past, I have had guys
saying that it is no better than the mist off the half meter waterfall
and it stings! The thing works and nobody has yet put it to scientific
test. All the money that is spent on helping 3rd world countrys, and
yet this thing (that can really really help) is ignored! I find it
astounding. Until I get feedback from others that have tried it, I
have to defend it from all the negative vibes. They really have a
detrimental effect. Anyway, when I lived in ireland, where water is
plentiful, I used one of the pumps to pump just 6 ft higher to
irrigate plants nearby. The fine sediment in streams seems to seal
them a bit so that even plants nearby can need water and not be able
to get the optimum amount. They are a device for using low grade water
power really. They can be used for other things besides pumping water.
Anyway, sorry for being so jumpy

If you have lots of water it's great. I wasn't running it down I was making
an observation.

I would love to be in a place where water was plentiful and not have to
spend from $300 to $1,000 and acre to put in irrigation. I look at water
from the point of what it cost to pump because I live on a dry plain and
have to pump it from 30 to 300 feet.

Dear OZ, Please look at the pulser pump yahoo group or one of the

After that, It might finally be clear to you. IT ISNT A HAMMER PUMP.

Both the air lift pump and hammer pump lift a proportion of water from a
body of water that has a head over its destination without input of
energy from the outside by using some of the energy in the head. You
say both types are very inefficient.

If you get the water lifted that you require why does it matter if the
pump harvests only a small part of the energy in the head as the
inefficiency isn't costing you input energy?

What type of pump that needs no external energy source is efficient by
your standards?

Well, OZZ,
you will be wrong and wrong again without apology,
Actually the hammer pump (also better known as a hydram) uses 60% or
more of the energy DIRECTLY for useful work. Because there is no waste
of energy in conversion, mechanical to electical, electrical to
mechanical again, etc. it is almost impossible for a conventional
electrically powered pump to come close to that 60% OVERALL efficiency
figure!
I have that info from an issue of scientific america. The pulser pump
is a combined airlift pump and tromp. Please look that combination up
in any book over 15 years old. You will not find it. Why? Because it
wasnt there. Probably because it didnt exist.
Low pressure airlift pumps are NOT well scientifically described. Why?
They just extrapulated figures from high pressure airlift pumps. (I
know because my pump easily beat their gestimates)
They never actually bothered to make low pressure airlift pumps. Try
to find information about pumping up an incline with an airlift pump.
You will be a while! Yet it works. How good can it be? nobody knows.
The good thing is that you are begrudgingly argueing about semantics.
People are no longer saying that the pump itself is fake. It is a
start!
Anyway, low pressure tromps combined with low pressure airlift pumps
have NOT yet been yet been described by science. There are
interactions between the tromp and airlift sections which make the
whole system quite a deal more complex to describe than the 2 devices
working seperately.
Finally, if airlift is so inefficient, why do people use vacuum
cleaners? Wetvacs are clearly airlift pumps and it shouldnt be too
much of an imagination leap to realize that dry vacuums are too. And
feed trucks that blow animal feed into tall bins. That is airlift
pumps too. As are many deep wells. That water in your beverage, might
just have been airlifted!

I don't know the proportion but I will take your word for it that it is
small.

Whether that matters or not depends on the situation.


That is what I was saying. If you get what you want for no input energy
cost it matters not if the system is only low efficiency. You are
harvesting a small proportion of what cost you nothing, that's still
cheap.

I come back to my previous point. What type of pump that needs no
external energy source is efficient by

So what? Do they work? Are they cheap? Are they suitable for some
situations? Whether those who are publishing this stuff now are right
about the origins of such ideas has nothing to do with the usefullness
of what they are publishing.

the homebuilt pump?
After all, I labeled the thread, simplest pump in the world and the
good man will need to test that supposition too.
The power head involved is half a meter. (You can use one meter
because you are a physisist). The power flow (for you) is 600 liters
per minute. And you get to use 6 inch diameter pipes in the
construction. You can obviously devine the best depths and heights for
pumping because you say they are completely researched.
You can check the pulser pump yahoo group for more info. But of

(By the way, pulser pumps are not very energy efficient. Ram pumps are

And he goes on with the crap about ram pumps being inefficient. That

fair to say that a good ram pump dilivers more of the energy from its
power source to its end use than ANY other hydropower device. I am

so even if it is publicity, perhaps it is wrong to try to reason with

So why not just cut & paste an extract?
Eg

capacity.

WORKING MODEL Approx. Flow 260 liters per minute of water , head 0.5
m, going 2.5m deep and pulsing to 3.6 m gave 4 liters per minute. The
same setup gave 1.5 lpm at 5 meters high. This was with a split process
pump using 10 cm (4 inch) pipes for the stream water and using 19 mm
(3/4 in) for the pulsed water delivery. The efficiency decreases like
this as one pumps higher. On the other hand, 2 stages to 7 meters will
give about 2 liters per minute with the same setup. Going deeper also
increases the efficiency. Perhaps you have an abandoned well that you
can use?

So input power 260 x 0.5 x g/60 joules

Useful output 4 x 3.6 x g /60 joules

Efficiency 11%

At 5m lift it's 6%.

It's not rocket science.

The basis of science is experiment. I have taken hundreds of
measurements of the pulser pumps shown on the videos and a few others.
I had hoped to interest a few people in making their own pumps and
reporting their results and their experiments using different heads
and flows. To help map the limits of the pump.
The hope is still there.
Take a look at the videos. Bear in mind that the pump shown uses a
really small flow of water falling a small distamce and clearly, it is
pumping a significant amount of water. Your water flow might be 10
times as much and your fall or power head might be a meter or more.
Imagine how much water would be moved then! And all without a moving
part to go wrong! And, remember, it isnt just a water pump!
Take care

My brother has just sent me short avi videos and pictures of a pulser
pump back in Ireland. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pulserpump/files/
They show the pumping of water clearly. Hopefully he will send me more
of it pumping quite a bit higher. (He just has to add a section of
pipe to the top of the 3/4 inch pipe to go higher). There are pictures
from him in the picture album section too.
Please note that this pump is powered by a tiny stream falling a small
distance, has no moving parts and can pump to over 7 meters high!
Imagine what a decent sized river could do!

Thank you, Gordon! You will get an honerable mention in the pulser
pump group!
I dont know if I reinvented anything yet. Regardless, I will attempt
to make it widely known.
The link looks like a source of valuable experimental info. Seems
like a different branch of 2 phase flow research to me. Nice to know
that Einstein saw the value of 2 phase flow. Hope others will follow
his lead.

On Albert Einstein has a patents on a small 15to 18 mm air lift pump. That
must have been in his early years before give up on hydrology as an
unsolvable problem and taking up physics. His son did take up hydrology and
did quite well at it working for the USDA.

I think your claims of new and relativity are really you reinvented the
wheel again.
