Design and fabrication of perpetual motion hydroelectric power Generator | Author : Rajiv Selvam , Mohammed Shajahan Omar , Vishal Mohanan Jyotsna , Chaganti Sainath , Manas Manoj , Neil Jokhi ,Clifton Stephen | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Perpetual Motion Hydroelectric Generators is a system which generates electricity by using the potential
energy of falling water under two circumstances, firstly for power generation and secondly for
recirculation of water. These types of systems can be extremely useful in rural regions where there is a
shortage of electricity as well as a limited supply of water. This paper describes the design and fabrication
of a hydroelectric generator as well as a hydraulic ram pump. Emphasis is given to the calculation of
power produced, discharge and the efficiency of the ram pump. The results obtained are validated with
respect to standard fluid mechanics calculations.
