    just started watching as much as I can of the videos you had for the series of your long term mini hydroelectric powerhouse ...

    Not sure if this still counts as "Micro" :D
    Great content, thanks for sharing with us :)

      According to this source www.e3a4u.info/energy-technologies/micro-hydro/understanding-micro-hydro/ any system under 100kw is considered micro hydro. Thx for watching!

    Mr Hydrohead,
    I live on a creek with year round flow. Spring runoff can be quite major at times. After that it calms down to a steady flow.
    Is there a water wheel or propeller type generator that can be dropped in the water to produce electricity?
    Thanks.
    Mark

      You are fortunate to have a property like that. There are many ways to harness power and it all depends on flow and head. A water wheel or prop system would probably not be the most efficient, but each site has different potential. The video series is an attempt to show how to measure potential and will eventually present many different approaches and systems to harness the potential energy. Thanks for watching!

    Hello I have been watching all your videos and will want to know what it will take for me to give light to my people in nigeria in my community

    • @mrhydrohead

      I guess the answer relies on an analysis how much power would be required and also a measurement of what available water source(s) you would have available to you to develop. Once power is made available it is likely there is an increase in demand, so you should build that into your estimates of the demand side. The supply side is limited by the potential of your water flow and head and the efficiency of your chosen equipment. Thx for watching

    I would like to know what kind is best . I have lake 75 feet above my home . Probably work

      Here is a link to do some research. First thing to do is measure reliable flow and head. greenbugenergy.com/get-educated-knowledge/types-of-turbines

    What’s the model number of the generator?

    • @mrhydrohead
      @mrhydrohead  5 років тому +5

      The generator was purchased way back in 1996 and the Lima Electric Company was purchased by Marathon Generators, so numbers now are probably different as the product line has been changed. The model was a Marathon Lima 3250-1230, 250 Frame 1800rpm. It has 12 leads and can be wired in numerous configurations: Delta, Wye or Zig Zag for 110v to 480v depending on need. We originally had it wired Delta 240v when generating from the springs but changed it to Zig-Zag 480v when we moved the system to the creek. I never know who has seen what of the series, so check out the whole video series for more detail. Hope this helps, thx for watching!
