Hi
I was wondering if anyone has tried using a high volume waterfall pump, in the neighbourhood of 5000 gph to feed a microhydro turbine? Is there any reason why you can't use a submersible pump like this and simply recirculate water in a reservoir, well, lake, pond, etc and create electricity and then use the electricity created to run the waterfall pump continuously. I have been looking around all over the net to see if I can find a similar example to no avail. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
