WHAT'S THIS VIDEO ABOUT?
In this video Ian Trew interviews one of the co-founders and inventors of the Bunyip Pump: Brett Porta. Brett explains some unique details and the benefits of a gravity powered Bunyip pump, which will last for many years, decades actually.
All this, without any power/electricity or fuel needed. And, how easy the pumps are to maintain over years.
What's the difference between a Bunyip pump and a RAM pump?
Unlike a RAM pump, the Bunyip pump can operate on low pressure and is self-regulating.

@Dino Sauro Anyone can talk about as much as they want, but 99.999999% of it is just people creating hoaxes. You make a free energy device that checks out and guarantee you that EVERYONE will be very interested. There is absurd amounts of money and research spent on improving efficiency. You really think that not a single engineer would love the holy grail of free energy? It is just that it is essentially known fact to be impossible, so almost certainly not worth someone's time and resources to treat 9999999999999 hoaxes as viable to find something that might be worth the effort. If it is made and works you better believe that people wont have to be found to come to you. The people will find you if free energy is actually proven.
@Jasoninee 3 жыл бұрын
@Dino Sauro No. That is ridiculous. Automobiles went from like the teens in mpg to now over 30 mpg and also electric cars that can run on off grid solar. Engineers and big business are not avoiding or adverse to getting more energy from less input. That is quite literally a huge focus of theirs. IF this actually happened the inventor would definitely need to decide how and who to work with sooner rather than later. IF it was true and the technology was held without distribution of some sort, then I guess it would be possible someone is going to come after you. Come after you to get it... not to bury it. An engineer would absolutely love to have technology presented to them that absolutely beats their current prospects. There is not some crazy entity taking people out for free energy devices. It is essentially an awful place to try and remain because out of 9999999999 claims there have been exactly 9999999999 motivated hoaxes or complete misunderstandings of physics.

Why would you choose to have wind>mechanical>low head pressure>mecanical>high head pressure? You are starting with mechanical. This device is essentially mechanical advantage for water pressure. If you want more head pressure out of the windmill then you would just use a differently geared pump for higher pressure.

@@ICGedye Mechanical advantage doesnt really have limits outside of breaking the materials involved. They are not going to magically gain a "sufficient" ratio of force by adding in unnecessary energy conversions. All that can do is reduce efficiency. If straight mechanical advantage is possible for the situation one should never add in extra energy conversions.
@edwardlewis1963 3 жыл бұрын
@@ICGedye Looking at conservation of energy, it needs to lose water at the level of the pump in order to pump some of the water up to a higher level; the higher the level you want to pump upwards, the more water you would have to lose.

Just to clarify, the device pumps water from a “pool” or reservoir, that it sits in, but is driven by water flowing from another source (creek or waterfall)? So would be no good if you don’t have water flow to drive it?

Amazing the number of drug addled minds that come prancing out of the closet preaching hate of civilization and all who have contributed to and profited from said contributions! This device, and I use that term loosely, contributes about as much to society as Jack's magic beans! It takes flowing water to pump water with it. If your going to divert water to it then why not just divert it to where it's needed? The mechanical waste of this thing would make it too inefficient to be sold if it had to pass the same standards of anything fueled by any of the non-hippie power sources

Not sure about this one but most useful sized hydraulic ram pumps need at least a meter of drop and a decent volume of water in the input pipe to work. More drop is better, but it's less than one might imagine.

Which would highlight the advantage of a traditional ram pump, not wasting energy lifting anything but water. I don't see how this new pump could work better when it has to lift the water AND the pump mechanism... simple conservation of energy.

@@davidjones8942 Assuming enough head volume to drive it in the first place, the weight of the piston is negligible. A physical piston also provides positive displacement so the potential pressure is high. In systems like this you're typically not trying to wring every last bit of efficency out of it. What's of more concern to me, versus the traditional style, is the durability of the rubber diaphram and seals over time. But it looks pretty tough and easy to service anyway.
@davidjones8942 3 жыл бұрын
@@roomtemp6374 ok, but the downside if a piston setup would be that a tiny failure to seal will result in (relatively) large loss of efficiency, whereas the ram pump is causing build up of pressure by stopping a large column of moving water, so a failure to seal on the one way valve would have to be enormous to effect output efficiency. I'm not trying to claim a ram pump is better than this piston set up, just that they are close enough to similar that there is no advantage to the piston design that could possibly warrant a roughly 100x price tag....

@sqekyy 3 жыл бұрын
the tyre doesn't get the high pressure inside it - lots of water at low pressure in the tyre is used to get a little bit of water to high pressure in the top piston (and it looks like the water that goes into the tyre is just used for power, and spills out; the inlet pipe - top piston - outlet pipe is separate)

630 psi in the pump chamber and that was of a 5 m fall, so the tyre would have 7 psi, 1.4 psi per metre.
@Wyrm1701 3 жыл бұрын
No, the power feed water supply and the water being pumped can be entirely separate, which is another score over a simple ram pump. This way you can use a copious but dirty water supply to push a low volume but clean spring water supply to wherever you need it; this could be important if you are using the water for animal or human consumption. It is quite often the case that you have plenty of water on a site, but not much of it is drinkable without treatment.

Check-valve springs operated 24/7 will break, same goes for the return-springs inside the tire. If the seal between tire and upper-body of the pump starts to leak, the pump will not work at all. What happens when twigs, leaves etc find their way into the pump? It is a problem for all pumps but especially for 24/7 ones and this low volume pump has to work all the time. They were bashing the ram-pump a bit too much to my opinion.

As a small engine repairman I can tell you that these tires last for years and years and will even work once dry rotted.
