The frictional and other opposing forces might be negligible compared to the output power. The. Pumping machine may also take only a fraction the power. If the output power is 20W, it should be able to charge a phone but that should not be our focus. It's just a prototype and can modified.

Is external electricity need to pump water back to the damn in Kainji?



frictional forces are negligible in textbooks.
in real life they aren't.

if the pumping machine takes only a fraction of the power, the water won't be enough to turn the turbines and it would stop working immediately.

the pumping machine taking path of the power has the same effect as friction except it is greater. the system needs all the energy to be transferred to the pumping machine for it to work.
frictional force is also allowing the 'machine' take only part of the power like I said in the post you quoted.

it won't work. you cannot cancel heat losses.

even if you do, it cannot support any load.
can you charge your powerbank by plugging it into itself?


the flowing water is the external energy source that causes the dynamo in the dam to generate electricity.

the flowing water acts as a fuel. it performs the same function as the petrol in your generator.

This is very impressive and though impractical to apply this technology for the purpose identified, it nonetheless has applications in other areas that benefit society.

Creativity like this is what sponsors should throw money at and put on tv for boys and girls to compete and become millionaires.....not scripted shows to debase human and social dignity like they do with BBN.

Bros that the corollary is more like an axiom, a perpetual motion machine is going to be achievable in the nearest future.

I just need money to put things in place and study deep on electromechanics.

I'll wow the world.

I constructed a fuel- less power generator too.
This technology is achievable bro.

you mean you used a battery to power a motor to power a dynamo to generate electricity to inturn charge the battery and and start the process all over again? the question is how many hours did your fueless generator hold out? Oh the battery eventually lost power and the chain ended ? There are many really good perpetual motion machine concepts out there but non has been able to stand the test of the factors of gravity , distance, time and resistance ... A perpetual motion machine will only succeed when these factor align in equality and that will never happen on earth

I agree the system is not self sustainable. But will eliminating the water pump increase the watt-Hour assuming the output load is the same in both cases

CastedDude:
The 32-year-old man identified as Augustine Otuokwa Ogar, who became an online sensation after constructing a 200 Mega Watts mini Hydroelectric power plant that generates electricity for the plant site and its surrounding early this year - is back again with another cool invention.

The graduate of Electronic and Computer Technology, University of Calabar (UNICAL), who comes and from Wula village, Eastern Boki in Boki Local Government Area of Cross River State, has constructed a Hydroelectric power machine that uses a bucket of water to run using locally sourced materials...

The talented man explained his research on Hydroelectricity to Calabar Reporters as he revealed that the system generate up to 20 watts (20W) of power that powers the injector pump and some phones and it operates when the top tank is filled with a bucket of water.

He said, “The device has two wooden tank (the up and down tank) for collection of water, a pen stock to control water out of the upper tank to the turbine, the turbine that convert the potential energy of water into mechanical energy that rotate the alternator through the pulley system, the alternator that generates power and lastly a riding machine injector pump motor which pump back water from the down tank to the upper tank and the process continues”.

Explaining how it works, Ogar said, “A bucket of water if emptied in the tank and water is allowed to flow and hit, turn the turbine which rotate the alternator, then electricity is generated which then energizes a small pumping machine that pump back the water into the first tank then process continues. The system carries two tanks, up and down tank. I decided not to show everything here for technical reasons

“It operates without a repulsive force or zero back electromotive force (emf). I invented it to be used for practical demonstration on hydroelectricity. It generates up to 20 watt during operation but I stepped down the power to power one blinking LED for demonstration and technical reasons.

“The system generate up to 20 watt of power that Powers the injector pump and some phones and it operates when the top tank is filled with a bucket of water and it’s a continues system. Although, not every part of the system is shown here for technical reasons because it’s going to be a huge technology in the nearest future.

“It shouldn’t be a surprise to any one that water contains both potential and kinetic energy and the law energy that it can be converted from one form to the other. On like mechanical generators, this device has two major sections also, the turbine that does the conversion of the potential energy of the River into motion serves as the mechanical part of the device while the alternator which convert this mechanical energy into electricity, is the electrical part of the device.

“The river that carries both the kinetic and potential energy is the fuel or the power house of the device. This is an era of renewable energy, can we join hands together to really developed this local innovation to solve the problem of power outage in Rural and Urban areas? And also to combat the challenges of global warming? What about training of youths on hydroelectricity by establishing renewable energy? Building training centers across the country and also creating job opportunities. God bless Nigeria”, Ogar concluded.

but he is trying to power the upper tank with what the upper tank is powering. this is not possible as it will die quickly and it would not be able to do any useful work like powering phones. the energy in the system cannot increase to power any load.

Is external electricity need to pump water back to the damn in Kainji?

This is a typical example of an energy damn. The EMF produced is used to power the pumping machine which supplies power to the damn.

You can see the pulley system which magnifies the angular velocity such that it rotates the alternator even faster
