Water Wheel Pumping Systems

Lifting and carrying water for irrigation without electricity is a challenge. Lifting and carrying water to nearby pond/open well requires energy. In this study an attempt has been made if this can be met out from the kinetic energy of flowing water. This revolving of water wheel pumping system is eco- friendly and water pumping works on mechanical energy without electricity. The kinetic energy of flowing water can be utilized for some use full work like pumping. The energy produced by flowing water can be utilized for lifting and carrying water for different purposes such as irrigation and also for other rural works in remote areas. The cup type pumping system was operated by flowing water and convert kinetic energy to mechanical energy. The power from the wheel is transferred to the pulley of pump. It is operating the centrifugal pump. It is very good for carrying water from minor canals to some horizontal distances nearby field. Similarly, Spiral tube pumping system has also been developed. The water wheel revolves, when water passing around it. At every revolution water inlet dip into water and takes water into tube.
