This project was used to test how water pressure (PSI) would affect Hydro electric output. We simulated this with locating Penstocks near the bottom ( higher pressure) and middle (lower pressure) of a 5 gallon bucket.
Our hypothesis is that the penstock at the bottom with greater pressure will = higher energy output
We matched the inflow of water with the outflow and also measured and maintained the fall or “head” from the penstock to the turbine, so water pressure alone was measured.
Results:
We managed approx 1.98v on Multimeter from the bottom penstock and 1.57v from the middle.
Bottom penstock = .4694 PSI
Middle penstock – .2347 PSI
Our conclusion is more PSI = more power output.
Head, or the pressure of falling water is created by vertically locating the turbine well below the intake of the penstock.
Our next experiment will be testing a high head vs. low head dam for energy production.

That's the way you do it! Job well done, so well you showed up 90 percent of the adults!
Great video perfect
are you black?
hi I am korean
Super videos
nice
Smart Idea
wow experiment with students
vejandla Bhargav
simple machine
did that reader tell you volts or watts? and how do you get one of those generators? P.S that is really good!
NYC videos ..
Water. Polloution
Good job!
Must annoy power company's when people play around with this stuff.
nice…..

para esse gerador ai , pode usa bem menos agua
J'aime you Tube
Can I know how you construct this
I think you have more water pressure at the bottom outlet due to the weight of the water in the bucket creating pressure.
Awesome experiment kid! You are the future!
What is maximum power generated by this miniature
so bad you cant speak english clearly

Amazing presentation, and science experiment. You have 1,462,238 views that is impressive.
Good
Very good
This generation is busy with phone. This is exceptional staff from 21st century kid.
Thanks my dude 27 legandes we will use this for Much fair science england is my language
NEC
HAAAA
nice invention
:):)
Nice video
awsssom boss your so good
very nice
Very good
nice
smart
good project and supear vide0
man i love smart educated children that are implicated in science experimentation…there's nothing more precious than that! that kid will never starve or be poor.
nice
superb
looking nice
nice projects good video
Where can I find the pulley?PLEASE ANSWER AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE.
