Do you have any solutions to prevent an off grid coanda from freezing up in cold climates? I have tried an insulated rigid foam box and still had freezing.
@@ToolsTechAndGear Yes, the slots. Also, do you have a formula for the optimum velocities for different slot sizes or doesn't it matter? I have been working on a 500 micron filter that is a bit different to a wedge wire profile. A 50 degree angle appears the optimum slope but slower moving water at the bottom is running off although the yield loss is small. I am wondering whether I should redesign with greater velocity.
Whoever made that Coanda screen, obviously does not understand the Coanda effect. The ribs in the screen are raised above the trailing edge of the preceding rib. That is why the screen is drawing the water NOT because it is taking advantage of the Coanda effect.
Leaft guards? Like a gutter with guard over that? I will need this box to hold up the coanda so it needs to be strong. Also this creek can have 400gpm in heavy rains.
1700 hundred for that!!!?? It's ABSOLUTELY ridiculous!!!!
Totally agree and I can't get the minutes back that I wasted watching this, could make that for $40😅
here from land to house, looking forward to the microhydro
Thanks for subscribing! This channel is going to have a ton of different video topics
Thats a pretty neat filter
I can hardly wait to get it installed.
Hey, very cool videos 👍👍☕🇨🇦
Thank you!

I am not sure yet. I just took measurements to install mine. I imagine this winter will have several tests.
What size apertures are they on your device?
Do you mean the space between the coanda grooves?

Would this work well as a ram pump intake?
Yes very much so. They are a bit costly though.
Seth save yourself a ton of money and just buy one of the leaft guards....

Ooooooh
Haha thats what I said too.
I’d buy one but they’re too damn expensive!
They are very costly. I would have thought $300-$400 for SS. But over $1000 is a lot.
