Abstract:The idea proposed in this study can be used in remote areas to lift the water spontaneously instead of using electrical pumps. This research aims to lift the underground water to a high altitude by designing a passive system that simulates the rising water in tall plants due to capillary action and evaporation. The study assumed a set of micro-tubes to lift the underground water to a tank. The flow rate due to capillary rise and evaporation were analytically determined by mathematical models based on energy eq… Show more
