how ram pumps work new version

This video is the human voice version of same video I made previously. It is also have larger circles indicating the flow direction. I am planning to convert my other robotic voice videos to human voice.

this is the best explanation on internet about the ram pump, really perfect.

[nicholasrv]

I have watched over a dozen videos on Ram pumps. The light bulb finally went on when I saw your diagram. Thank you

[Cjshlfjtils]

The perfect system as well as with the presentation. Thank you.

[smartypants]

If the water is returned to the stream from where it came from there is no waste and the only loss in respect of the stream is what is being taken away for the humans use. What a magic system. The animation and explanation are both perfect, Well done !!!!.

[ManuelMendez]

Exactly the explanation I was looking for, the physics involved in this kind of mechanism, I saw it working on many videos before, but could not understand how the energy flow works on, I also subscribed to your channel, congrats.

[WayneCarolan]

Well explained once again, so simple but yet so impressive.

[bluemymind]

I've seen a few videos about ram pump but this is by far the best explanation. Well done 👍

why wouldnt it work without a waste valve? is it to create cycles?

[kingofkleen]

So... the water source must be higher than the pump in order to work? Therefore this will not pump water from a well 25-30 deep?

1. Water flows downhill which forces the waste water valve to shut
2. When the valve suddenly shuts the weight of the water flowing downhill wants to continue flowing in that direction (water hammer) causing a sudden rise in pressure
3. The sudden rise in pressure causes the valve to the outlet of the pump to open
4. While the water flows through the outlet, it causes air pressure in the accumulator tank to rise
5. When the air pressure rises enough in the accumulator, that causes the outlet valve to close.
6. While the outlet valve is closed, the excess air pressure in the acumulator forces the water uphill.
7. Also when the outlet valve closes, this causes the water to stop flowing on the inlet side which lets the waste water valve open via gravity.
8. As the water flows from inlet to waste this causes the waste valve to close again from the flow of water. Which starts the cycle again

[alexdo]

So the pump have 2 vales, each one will take turn to open and close as the water pressure change. At the first vale there is a air tube, which use as a air pressure pump to push the water up. As the water flow the pressure shut the 2nd vale, which then build pressure one the first vale force it to open now water will flow into the first vale and fill up tube. So the air in the air tube got compressed, to a point the aire pressure is strong enough to push, and shut the first vale at the same time push the water up. Vale 2 open up when the water pressure is reduced due to water flow into vale 1. The water flow pass vale 1 to vale 2, then force vale 2 to shut, then vale 1 open. So one vale open, other close, then using compressed air to push air upward. Very nice ideas.

What an ingenious design! finally figured it out! thanks!

[enriqueponce]

the great pyramid was a giant ram pump

[paagronomoff]

much better than the mechanical robot voice in the other video

[pinturasyaccesoriospuertor]

It is possible pump up 500 mts or more with this pumps?

[TihoDownTheTube]

Is there optimal diameter of the delivery pipe in relation to intake pipe? And is the size of accumulator important? Does it affect the speed of valves opening and closing?

[themrmoneybags]

Is there a way for water being released from the waste valve to be recycled back into the initial holding tank/ river where this is being pumped from? I'm not just wondering where wastewater goes if this pump is placed outdoors to take water from a stream or lake, but what if someone wanted to recycle water upwards as part of a sustainable system?

[davestanton]

One could insert a non return valve so the output pipe would not pressurize the balloon or tyres or tube.
Surely there is a balance point
Where the strong balloon or tyres or tube can provide extra thrust to extract more water from the accumulator
If the tube is able to contract more than the pressure build up in the accumulator?
or should i say more than the head pressure required to trust water to the top of the output,
but less than the pressure coming in to the accumulator.

I think we are on to a major breakthrough in Ram pump pumping technology here?

[dclothes]

How is this expensive and a waste if you use this in a natural river or stream? The water would be going into the environment any way. Thanks for the info, I will put it to good use.

[joenielsumagang]

In the waste valve, is it possible to save the water that comes out in that valve, for example adding some weight to the valve so that the water connot comes out.
