How to start a large siphon using 2" PVC tubing that can transfer 50-100 gallons per minute depending on height of water level. This can work with much larger diameter pipe or tubing but requires valves for tube filling.
🔴 What Is Islam? ⚠️ 🔴 Islam is not just another religion. 🔵 It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham. 🔴 Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God. 🔵 It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone. 🔴 It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine. 🌍 The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as: 📖 { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4)[4] 📚 🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus. 🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him.
Dan, that is absolutely Brilliant! As always, you show how a simple, well thought out solution can be employed to make things better. Very cool, my Brother! Thanks for the upload.
I did something like this in earth science. We were messing around with the stream table (erosion demonstration) and sand had collected in the bottom resivoir, no one knew how to remove the water and sand without a pump. After thinking about it I suggested siphoning it out. No one wanted to suck the water up through the tube so I took the hose, filled it up at the sink and proceeded to siphon the sandy water out of the resivoir. My teacher was impressed.
Thanks for the tip. This will definitely save me time as I make the half tank water changes in my 110 gal. pond every week. It's usually a short workout using the hand pump.
yeah, we did that on a rainy summer with some giant's cauldrons or potholes filled to the rim with water on a little mountain with a 20m garden hose when we were about 10 years old at or summer resort. I hadn't heard of this before then and the difference in level of 20m was spectacular hahaha! Those were the days, summer adventures from June to August! :D
I've done something similar at work where we have a drink dispenser/juice machine. The trap in that doesn't drain. So, if it gets filled up with watered down juices, I submerge a part from an air coffee pot in water, carry it out to the machine with a pitcher, stick one end into the trap, then let it siphon out the excess liquid. Which makes it MUCH easier to carry it to the kitchen to empty out.. Instead of having to walk with it so slow and easily so you don't spill anything along the way.
dan I liked the quick video and the wide PVC helps demonstrate better flow and how a wider device needs sealing at both ends to move the output from source to destination sometimes
New to your channel. Part of my property is border line flood area. I have high area. This would be a good place to get rid of the excess water. I was thinking of using some 1/2 inch hose. Your method is very straight forward .Really like that massive amount of water being moved by just law laws of physics. They never lie.
G'day, Yay Team ! I love that there-all Background Clutter you have going on...; the true mark of a Hoarder at the peak of Collectivity...! Great Syphon, too, by the way... ;-p Ciao !
So for anyone who missed the point: Fill tube, lower exit/output of tube below entrance/source, then let go The wider the tube the more flow. Lower the output end of the tube/hose even lower and raise the input/source end of the tube to let gravity help even more. For example, if you are trying to drain an above ground pool or even below ground, once all of the air is removed from the tube/hose you will get faster flow if the output end of the hose is 20ft lower in height from its input end than if the output end if only 5ft lower than the input.
Unlimited energy👁👄👁 Put it in lake, make a little dam, have a fan or multiple of them to spin a turbine so water weight makes turbine turn around forever and ever. Genius
@@JuanMarquezVerified I had a pretty big fish tank. To drain it, I used a rubber hose. Suck hard to give the water some momentum and make sure the container it's draining into is lower than the tank. Basically how people would siphon gas out of cars back in the day
I've seen farm hands starting 3 and 4 inch tubes kind of like that. Submerge, cover one end then lift over the edge. Tough job for sure when you have hundreds to start in a hurry.
I used 1/4" line to siphon 40 weight oil out of the gearbox on my old Saab lol... it was so thick and it moved so slow it was incredible to watch, The transmission held about 2 quarts and I emptied 1 1/2 siphoning the oil out. Took like 10 minutes though it was sooo slow.
No larvae in there. The tadpoles eat them and 5 of the containers using a Torricelli Vacuum trick the larvae to go up, seeking surface air. They only get glass (no air gap), keep trying then drown. Tadpoles swim in, eat algae and swim out. I have one vessel with the bottom opened and an air gap. All the larvae hang out there, develop into mosquitoes and get trapped in the air lock. After 3-5 days, the new mosquitoes die and become tadpole food. I will have a video for a stagnant water container that encourages mosquitoes to place their larvae in a cozy vase of water. When the larvae swim up the nice dark chamber to avoid direct sunlight, the swim right into 180˚ F water. This trap kills thousands of larvae in a season. Keeps them from reproducing in ditches where you have no control. Still have the fans going because swamps are all around us. On my FB page I posted a 5,000 mosquito kill in one night. I cleaned our area but a storm came and blew in thousands of more mosquitoes which are currently stuck to the back of our 4 large fans:-) I hate mosquitoes and kill over 100,000 a year. Pointless fight but it makes our 3 acres less miserable in the summer. Videos on all this this week. Here is the fan video that inspired many similar YT videos: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pU2kbghz85I.html Here is the FB post: facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10213585971192990&set=a.2169665650559.126268.1514264504&type=3&theater
Me and my sister used like a 10-15 meter hose to fill the base of my boxing bag. We put the hose into our back up water tank ( we are on tank water) and i sucked some water out and then got my sister to rase the hose up and down for about 1 minute befor it started pumping on its own
Hi Daniel, We currently have it listed for sale and still restoring in spare time. Someone made a decent offer but was planning on leveling it so we said no. Second time we have turned down an offer for development. Hoping to get someone there who would use it for what it was made for. I know just about everything will become buildings and living complexes in the future.
My crawl space is flooded (failed sump I guess) and frozen.. was thinking I could do something like this to more easily siphon the entire crawlspace out when it thaws. It's like 3-4 feet deep of water. I would need the exit to be lower than the entrance for this to work?
Inverted siphon Bell siphon Siphon Herons fountain Are you able to make equation for each And by comparison we got the maximum free energy By combining all the equation we got that limit of free energy which can be used for making electricity by running a turbine
could you put a tip on the end of the siphon to create laminar flow and shoot the water back into the pool creating an infinite loop? Then you could add a waterwheel and BOOM free energy for everyone..Dan saves the world.
You would have something similar to a Heron's Fountain: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-92rSXLPupKw.html The energy required to send water up is borrowed by the flow of the siphon/displacement. Once the lower chamber is filled, the process stops. Only works if the lower vessel is sealed. A waterwheel one the siphon directly would be more efficient but you would need an unlimited source of water. The energy required to lift the water siphoned out back into the elevated tank will always be more than what you get out. A water flow to a lower tank/chamber and retired to stye elevated source alone running infinite would amazing, but, as far as I know, it cannot work. Rain does it but that uses renewable energy.
Yes. A siphon is not just the ATM pressure pushing the water into the lower reservoir. It majorly uses a vacum and gravity to pull the water out. The more water in the tube, the more power it has to pull the upper reservoir water. It is all perfectly proportional.
You don't need gloves, I think if you just held your fingers over each end, the key is to keep the water in the pipe at the longer end (exit) and don't raise the source end of the PVC above water
Algae can be used for food sources and fuel production. While I am personally not working on the production part, I am seeking methods of rapid growth for large scale production applications. Currently testing some unique approaches.
Well the pressure in the tube(the water falling on the other end) that let's the water flowing initially is created by gravitational pull, is it not? Only after that event, water pressure takes over and keeps it flowing.
@@Scrungge Nothing to do with gravity and everything to do with pressure (of course gravity affects all things at all times but is not relevant in this case)
