How much energy can we harvest from that? Hydroelectirc wheel at Kuckucksmuehle Description This project is about researching and implementing an hydroelectric solution for the Kuckucksmühle (Kum). Constraints Legal issues (the right to use the water) Water needs to continuously flowing (at the moment a beaver damn ensures that) but officially there is no creek on the map anymore foundation of the mill and structure of the building needs to be checked for suitability and/or restoration of it. Goals Produce electric energy for infrastructure or services of Kum. Ideas for usage Powering sets of small computers for providing dedicated servers for small applications 100% renewable. Research needed How much water do we have? How much energy can we harvest from that? Measuring the water level over a year. Implementing a water flow meter that is non intrusive. First Ideas: A camera that makes photos every hour and calculates the amount of water flowing through by hight of the water level exiting the tunnel of the bridge. research/hydroelectirc_wheel_at_the_kuckucksmuehle.txt Last modified: 2020/01/26 16:09by aimeejulia
