Embodiment 1
[0026] This embodiment is a low water head energy harvesting device, such as figure 1 shown. This embodiment includes: a water diversion pipe 2 arranged at the upstream 1 of the water flow, the water diversion pipe is provided with an air intake facility 3, and the water diversion pipe is connected to a gas-collecting facility 10 arranged at a water level 8 lower than the water flow downstream. The outlet of the water diversion pipe is arranged at the bottom of the gas-gathering facility, and the bottom or bottom of the gas-gathering facility is also provided with a water outlet 9, and the top or top of the gas-gathering facility is provided with an air outlet 6, and the gas outlet Connect air collecting pipe 5 on.
[0027] The basic idea of this embodiment is: use the pressure difference between the upstream and downstream to collect and pressurize the air, then collect the pressurized air, and use the compressed air as the energy transfer medium. The minimum height diffe...
Embodiment 2
[0039] This embodiment is an improvement of the first embodiment, and is a refinement of the first embodiment regarding the water flow head. The water head of the water flow described in this embodiment is not less than 0.5 meters.
[0040] The water head of the water flow described in this embodiment is not less than 0.5 meters, that is, the energy of the water head at a height of half a meter can be collected to form compressed air.
Embodiment 3
[0042] This embodiment is an improvement of the second embodiment, and is a refinement of the second embodiment regarding the air intake facility. The air intake facility described in this embodiment is an air intake pipe.
[0043] There are many options for the position and installation method of the air intake pipe installed on the water diversion pipe. For example: the outlet of the intake pipe can be set on the pipe wall of the water pipe, such as figure 2shown. can also be as figure 1 As shown, the outlet is at the central axis of the water pipe, and the orientation of the outlet is consistent with the direction of water flow.
