This Siphon Works But not for Long

- This is the last update on the silly siphon. I install the foot valve and the ball valve to get the unit primed with water. After much work I managed to get some water out the top but the best results were only a little over 35 seconds. I am comfortable saying that this siphon idea is busted.

Not DEBUNKED!! You're supposed to leave the check valve underwater on priming, I guess you finally realized that blunder but from that point forward it seems you're clueless about the concept in that case. Water can not fill the pressure tank completely EVER, because the air is trapped above it with no escape unless you didn't glue it in which case it can leak around the contact point of the pipe but you DO need to use much longer priming strokes than those quick little strokes you're using so that you get enough water past the check valve for it to build up and not 2 hours time later. Which, btw they make weighted check valves that do not have a spring in them. When you raise the pump up higher you also increased the distance the water has to go to begin the pumping action but yet your tiny little strokes are not filling the pump properly or giving the water enough momentum, you should have opened the valve completely, immediately so that the water could completely fill the influent pipe and not slowly like you did, you interrupted the water's ability to flow up the pipe from the pond so it never pulled full prime while the pressure inside the pump was at maximum and so far YOU have been the problem not the pump, this is NOT perpetual motion, it's a siphon effect which is something altogether different..
If you didn't use PVC glue the joints will leak air. I think it needs to be air tight to make and maintain pressure.🤔
the concept works. As a youth I worked on an arizona farm where irrigation water flowed through open concrete canals for waterings the ranches. We used heavy rubber pipes about 5 feet long, that naturally curved because they came on huge spools, and 4 in diameter. To get the water flowing, you thrust one end of the pipe into the water and as far as you could, then immediately cap your hand over the top of the pipe and draw the pipe up but not out of the water. Its sorta like sucking on a straw, but instead you just stop the water from running out the bottom by caping your hand over the top. When this is done fast enough, you cause a flow of water that flows up and over the edge of the canal and onto the rows of crops. The flowing water in the canal has a lot to do with the physics. We would do hundreds in a couple of hours. The competition was who could get the water flowing with the least amount of strokes.
thank you for trying out, it was lovely to watch and learn. To be logic, the pressure chamber shall be 1/2 the length of the water chamber so that the pressure build inside the pressure chamber is proportional to the length of the water chamber * 0.5, and the height of the outlet pipe should not exceed the height that it will build a gravitational pressure that equal or close to the pressure builds inside the pressure chamber, otherwise both the pressure inside the pressure chamber + the weight of water at the top half of the water chamber will be lower, but it should be higher in order for that kind of system to work.
I would be very interested in a 55 gal drum siphon from a pond to provide delivery water to one of your ram pumps
Your the best, thanks for making this video. Don't never get up.
With the outlet much higher than the intake, input and output volumes the same - no matter what gyrations occur in closed system in between, it ain’t gonna work. Nice video.
You invested considerable amount of time money and effort to debunk this. THANK YOU!!!
And now back to our regularly scheduled program. 😄👍
too cool, results as expected.
Thanks for telling true words
THANKS!
I knew this wouldn't work. These guys are scammers 😂
Thx for experimental video. Moscow watching!
Thank you very much
Thank you
The pressure chamber might need to be taller than the inlet and or the outlet to be able to push down water using gravityand and air pressure and might need a little vacuum pressure to keep going.
The only reason why any water is running out of the outlet is because you are putting work (pumping energy) into the system by shaking the one-way valve at the input pipe. That energy is further stored in the large capped-off tube as increased air pressure (above atmospheric pressure). This is potential energy. When the outlet valve is opened, the small amount of stored potential energy in the slightly-pressurized capped-off tube pushes the water through the valve and out of the outlet tube. Once the air pressure in the capped-off tube reaches atmospheric pressure (in a few seconds), the water flow stops. There is no magic perpetual motion going on here.
Crazy presentation
good job
