Teaching Kids about Batteries Photovoltaics
Hiding in photol is the reflection of high-voltage transmission lines that carry nearly 1400 megawatts to heavily populated northern Virginia. This image captures the energy choices facing today's youngsters in an increasingly populous and resource-scarce world. Disposable or renewable fuels Centralized or distributed generation Next century's energy picture will be shaped by this decade's school children. Not all will be utility or government planners, but all will be energy consumers and...
Switch
The liquid in the tanks is one of the refrigerants, or butane or propane. Air is evacuated from a pair of tanks and the pair's crossover pipe, and enough liquid added to fill one tank plus supply vapor for the opposite tank. The wheel produces torque when a part of the liquid is vaporized by the warm-hot water and forces the rest of the liquid to the upper tank. There must be a temperature differential between top and bottom tanks. Since the top tank is full, and thus heavy, and the bottom tank...
Delco Generator
If everything is connected correctly, clamp the generator down, clear your work area, and close the switch. The generator should now run as a direct current shunt motor. Adjusting the resistor will control the speed of the motor. Be sure to turn the motor fast enough to allow the cooling fan to maintain airflow through the motor, and do not disconnect the field lead while current is flowing in the motor. If everything is tuned up right, the motor speed will be about 3600 revolutions per minute,...

Pocketplate Nicads in Home Power Service
I have just recovered from a pain in the neck that lasted twenty years. It started with our first lead-acid battery's arrival in 1970. I've had this pain for so long it became normal and I hardly noticed it anymore. The energy portion of my life revolved around these lead-acid batteries. All the decisions and compromises in our system were to accommodate the cranky lead-acid cells. The list of Dos and Don'ts was seemingly endless. Thou shalt not discharge more than 80 of the energy in the...

PV Hydro Systems and a visit to the Lil Otto Hydroworks I was delighted when Bob-O Schultze and Otto Eichenhofer invited us to visit some PV Hydro systems along the Salmon River. The Salmon River runs madly through northern California, and if you want power along the River, then you make your own. The independent folks living along the Salmon have been doing just that. Brian Green, our HP photographer, and I saddled up and drove up and down the icy mountain roads to the little town of...
Siting for NanoHydro A primer
Nano-Hydro is the ability to generate 3 Amps or less of hydropower at least some of the year. An amazing number of rural, and especially mountainous, homesites have this capability. Most anyone who has a couple of acres in the mountains somewhere has seen the phenomenon of little springs popping up everywhere after a couple of good rains or during snowmelt. True, most of them seem to pop up in the driveway somewhere or worse, in the cellar, but since most folks tend to build toward the base of...
