Cheap fun, even with a 2.82 diff. Somebody would certainly give you a few
grand for it all tuned up. More if it is straight in and out. How many

Ah Grasshopper!   Basic physics and real science can be denied if there 
are big bux to be made!  And it helps if you usta be high placed in the 
goobermnt.  (Albore)


All ya have ta do is claim 97% of scientists agree, and bully (and cut 
off goobermnt funds to) anyone who disagrees!   (Albore)


If we wanna have downspout turbines, all we have to do is start a 
goobermnt program and fund it.Majikally, the "science" will appear!

Re: [MBZ] OT: Generating power in the rain -- and at night

[OK Don via Mercedes]

I hate to "rain on your parade", but if it sounds too good to be true:

Myth 2: Rooftop / Downspout Hydro

A second common microhydro-electric scheme that we are often asked about is
the viability of putting turbines on a home’s gutter downspouts to generate
electricity from the rain. Some imaginative folks know enough about hydro
to understand that the energy has to come from somewhere (in this case,
from the forces of nature), and that the height of the roof can contribute
head (pressure) to spin that turbine.

The mistake in this scenario is a simple and honest one of scale. While
some hydro units have been designed that can function on low head, such as
from the roofline of typical homes (and even lower), a hydro turbine’s
power output is a product of head *times* flow. And it is a lack of
significant flow that is the defeating factor in the power equation when
relying on rooftop rainwater collection. The watershed drainages for even
small streams are usually measured in thousands of acres or square miles.
Home roofs, even big ones, are measured in mere thousands of square feet.

Let’s look at example calculations for a large house in a very rainy
place—Seattle, Washington, gets about 40 inches of rain per year, with
November being the rainiest month at an average of about 6 inches.

Let’s assume that a tall two-story house would give us a 25-foot-high roof,
and thus 25 feet of head. This 6,000-square-foot home has about 3,000
square feet of rainwater collection area (remember, it’s two stories). That
means that in November, this house would receive about 1,500 cubic feet of
rain, or 11,220 gallons.

If that rainfall came as a constant drizzle all month long, flow from the
roof would be only about 1/4 gallon per minute. Currently there is no
turbine on the market to work with that flows that low, but using our
microhydro power formula (see sidebar), we could theoretically get 468
watt-hours that month.


*0.26 gpm × 25 feet ÷ 10 derate = 0.65 watts × 720 hrs./mo. = 468 Wh*

So even if there was a nanohydro plant that could harvest that small flow,
it would result in less than 1/2 kWh of electricity—per month!—and only 3
cents worth of electricity in Seattle. It’s a tiny fraction of what even an
energy-efficient, 6,000-square-foot home would use in a day, not to mention
a whole month.

Would the available energy increase if we weren’t dealing with a constant
drizzle? What if, to increase flows to a usable rate, and hopefully
increase viable energy production, we could hope that all that rain came in
a great deluge of 1 inch per hour (a 100-year storm, in Seattle) over six
hours! At that unlikely amount of rain—practically all at once—flow from
our example roof would be about 31 gpm. That is a more viable flow rate for
hydro turbines on the market and gives us a projected power production of
77.5 watts, but only for those six hours. The total of 465 Wh per month is
about the same energy as the drizzly example above (the minor difference is
from rounding significant digits).

This is when inventive thinkers will begin planning for taller homes, or
additional rain-collecting roof areas, and tanks to hold the water for
release all at once to increase flow. But even that 11,220 gallons of water
that falls on our 3,000-square-foot roof that month would weigh almost 47
tons if stored. Imagine a structure at roof level capable of supporting
that kind of load just to generate a minuscule amount of energy. And
remember, these discouraging energy production numbers are for the rainiest
month, in one of America’s rainiest cities. Other months, other places, and
smaller houses can only deliver worse performance.

In this case, it would be better to just spend the money on a PV system. To
put things into perspective, even in Seattle, which gets only an average of
1.7 peak sun-hours per day in November, an inexpensive (less than $100)
15-watt PV module would make close to the same amount of energy as the
proposed rooftop hydro system.

Re: [MBZ] Dead starter

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Good troubleshooting nonetheless.  You are lucky it died in the drive!  
I was lucky to have 2 die at the Sinclair station that sells good clean 
DIesel, and is one of the dinosaurs that still has 2 service bays and 
somewhat competent people!


Each one got a Bosch rebuilt, as neither core was rebuildable.


Max Dillon via Mercedes

SWMBO's Infiniti got a new battery last night, but that didn't solve 
the problem, so tonight I get to install a new (rebuilt) starter. Fun.


The engine had been cranking over slower lately, the battery was six 
years old and voltage would drop pretty quickly with the headlights 
turned on and engine off, so I thought a new battery would fix it. 
Tonight the starter died completely during an operation test in the drive.

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

not really.  We are talking a nanogenerator at the bottom of your 
downspouts.  It would still generate more than a roof full of static 
electricity panels.


Did anyone else find it ironic the guy pushing this BS was named SUN?


Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes 
March 14, 2018 at 11:37 AM
Except that would require offsite space, unlike the roof panels which
would generate power in situ, however miniscule.

A good used rollback wrecker can be bought for less than 1/3 of their
projected price, less when you factor in the shipping and import costs to
get it in USA.

Seems like a nice exercise in "wallet jacking", at the projected sale
price... To each his own.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Generating power in the rain -- and at night

[Jim Cathey via Mercedes]

Nano-hydro, at best.  Collect the amount of rain that sluices off into a
bucket, and assume a water head of 1/2 the vertical dimension of the
panel.  That's the top end of the amount of energy you could expect to
collect, at 100% efficiency.

You'd get more energy if you actually did collect the runoff, and run it
through real nano hydro, because then you can use a much higher average
height since most solar panels don't touch the ground.

Re: [MBZ] Way OT: Tinnitus

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

Stereotypical ringing in the ears. I've had it as long as I can remember. Its 
worse if I eat really salty food or have high stress levels, better if I do 
yoga every day and drink lots of water. Never goes away though.It doesn't 
really bother me, in fact I wonder if it would bother me if it were gone since 
its been a constant companion...

8-10" here in north central MA. Fred is much closer to Boston, his total will 
reflect the city better.

With any luck we'll be out grooming tonight. The state is doing anything they 
can think of to keep us from going out. I just had to go wade through knee deep 
snow to prove the entrance to the trails is fine. I told the guy if I could go 
through and not get my feet wet its fine...

[MBZ] OT: Generating power in the rain -- and at night

[Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes]

This is mind boggling.

TECHNOLOGYThis solar panel produces energy in the rainPublished: Wednesday,
March 14, 2018

Developers in China have invented a solar panel that generates electricity
in the rain, potentially cutting down on the hurdles for reliable solar
electricity.

The new device, demonstrated at Soochow University in China, places two
transparent polymer layers atop a solar photovoltaic cell. Raindrops
falling onto the top layers cause friction as they roll off, and the
friction generates a static electric charge.

"This device even provides electricity at night if there is rain," said
Baoquan Sun of Soochow University.

Sun said he expects to roll out a prototype in three to five years.

It's not clear how the raindrop power could stack up against the lost
potential from a sunny day.

"It's really not clear whether this is a big deal or not — I suspect it's
not," said Varun Sivaram, the author of a book on solar power who now works
at the Council on Foreign Relations (Damian Carrington, London *Guardian*
,
March 13). *— AAA*
