    Can this be solved without a knowledge of turbines?

    Thanks for your input Billy, As turbine blade resistance losses could be significant but the resultant of the water head height should add to the total force experienced at each succeeding turbine. What is the way to calculate effective head at each subsequent turbine further down the tube after...

    Making gasoline from seawater (to store energy)

    Thanks for that. You may want to debate sustainable / renewable / naturally non toxic unless you want to poison your pH by drinking saltwater all day long...but the balance of seawater covering 4/5ths of the planet mean depth of around 3000m, make water accessible to the majority as the solar...

    Can this be solved without a knowledge of turbines?

    1) 10 Hydroturbines are in a line, fitted inside a 1m diameter vertical tube its height 1.2km. The top of the tube is 100m deep underwater in a high mountain saltwater lake. This 1200m long tube acts like an orthogonal drainpipe down the mountain. Hdyroturbine-A...
