The Rainwater Project NSCC & EWU

Long-term Goals To install a system into a drainpipe at NSCC that will harvest electrical energy from rainwater To show hidden ways to generate electricity in our day to day events

Waterwheel The oldest form of hydroelectric power Simple and reliable design Power is proportional to the size of the wheel We need lots of flow!

Drainpipes  One of our biggest problems...  Where do we put this?  What pipe is the best one?  What makes any pipe better than the others?

Things We Need To Know For Each Drain Locations Heights Rainfall data for the location Types of drains/water management Collection (roof) area Material of each drain Type of & size of ground level drain area

Questions?
