The water-gravity transferance energy production machine.
by James M Driscoll Jr (aka Spaceman)

The idea is to have 2 containers and enough water to
fill one to the top.
2 power generators, and piping and valving and water
pumps whereever needed.
Also 2 heavy masses that will float.
and some sort of controller unit for all of it.
and Storage batteries to start it all up and store
any energy created.
(and of course a Grid Tie system if it actually works)

Here is the thought on how it would work.
The masses are connected to gear rods
(like a rack and pinion rack) that will turn
an electric generators gearing system on the way
up and also can do such on the way down in each tank
We will start with an empty container A and the floatable mass at
the bottom and a full container B with the floatable mass at the
top.
A pump will start a siphon from B to A that will do just about
half the filling from container B to container A and lift the floatable
mass and the gear rod will be connected that will turn a generator's
gearing to create power from Generator A on the way up and generator B
on the way down and the rest of the way a water pump will complete the
transfer.
The mass must be heavy enough to turn the generator via gravity
when the water is lowering and the gear ratio to turn the generators
would need to be pretty large. (I figure water can pick up lots of weight)
so a large mass would be better for the downward travel to make sure
the high gear ratio will still spin.
that is basically it...
and of course...
Once finished transfering water from A to B, basically the opposite will
happen.
causing the floatable masses to now move downward and upward again creating
electricity again.


After half the water siphons from tank B to tank A, how do you get the rest of the water from B to A?? The siphon will stop when the water level in the two tanks are equal. From there on it's an 'uphill' battle to finish moving the water out of B.
