Description:
Sea Water Electricity.

Head varies generation varies.

Ocean has Various depths, there by this difference In depths with different pressures will be utilized to create different heads. At the beginning of the water body the depth is very less here we will get few millimeters to few centimeter head near the shore and depth increases as we keep on going deep and deeper into any water body. Ocean has a depth of more than 10 kilometers deep.

Various depths have various different hydro static pressures and different pressures generate different electrical generations from few watts , small and very big generations from the entire water body on the planet when this water is run into the turbine- generators in man made structures. Here impulse, reaction turbines, submersible and non submersible turbines , all different varieties of turbines available in the global market any where in the world are used according to the laws of hydraulics and fluid mechanics .

The ocean cannot run Into earth this ocean Is a very big water tank tightly placed in the earth and all the rivers empty there water into this tanks annually.

Except the surface of the ocean which is open to the sky there is earth surrounding on all sides of the ocean and surface of the ocean is always open to the sky and to the atmospheric pressures.

Earth is surrounding this ocean from the rest of the sides i.e. on all the sides and bottom too.

The ocean has various depths to get various heads and constant volume and velocity of water into a man made structures. Electricity is generated with the flow of water, run of the water , velocity of the water, volume of water, active water head and the penstock should always have full water running at a constant volume , velocity etc and so on into the turbine .

When water runs kinetic energy is released. For every one cubic meter of water falling from a height of 100 meters the kinetic energy generated will be 0.272 kWh. There are two factors influencing the marine renewable generation the first point is the volume of water and the second point is the height of release to generate small to big generations in this facility both are met to generate green electricity .

This ocean water should have a movement or run , this ocean water is having only potential energy and this ocean water should be converted into a kinetic energy so the ocean water will run and when this ocean will run then very cheap electricity will be generated for the benefit of the mankind «

Ocean will run in a facility constructed below the level of the water body or the main sea level because of level difference, gravity etc and so on . Water always runs from a higher level to a lower level by the law of gravity. Water always finds its own levels and will run forward.

Oceans will not run but will have waves on the top and only waves because of moon, rotation of the earth and wind. The ocean is like a big water tank and the water is having no movement, some times ocean will sleep, the ocean Is like a big container with water placed Jn a very big pit in the earth. To make this ocean water to come out we should dig below the main ocean level , below the main level of the water body or below the main sea level into the earth surrounding the. water body , so the ocean will be on top and the facility created in the earth is much below than the sea level or below the water body this will make the level difference, hydro static pressure differences, atmospheric pressure difference , gravity etc and so on to make the ocean water to run into the cavity, facility etc . The cavity dug will be from at least from 12 inches in diameter to 10 kilometer in diameter , the cavity can be of any shape , size and angel available to the architectural and geometrical world, various compartments, divisions , layers , multi stories structures , one above the other and one below the other so the ocean will run to fill this hollow cavity of different capacities , the length of the cavity will be at least from 12 inches to more than 50 kilometers long because the length and the diameter is the deciding factors to big generations and the more the length and diameter more will be the generation machinery Installed . The facility etc dug Inside the earth slantingly , sloppily down for a active water head starting in the water body and going far away from the water body and water will start circulating in the entire facility generating marine electricity because of the gradient available for the water to run down and fall from a height . This invention has water always running in the facility so the electrical generation Is stable.

To get the ocean water into this cavity, facility, method etc in the earth and in the water body the invention uses various methods, technologies available to the scientific and architected worlds like canals, spillways, siphons etc and so on with perfect structural, architectural designs etc and so on with all precautions and safety methods of national and International standards , keeping gates, valves, pumps, using water hydraulics, industrial hydraulics etc and so on to safe guard the entire facility , every structure and machinery from the inlet to the outlet for the water to enter and exit for the generation of electricity .

By using the laws of hydraulics and fluid dynamics and with the basic principle with the application of regularly applied fundamental hydraulic engineering principles combined with generation methodology for the mathematical analysis of the movement of fluids in fluid mechanics are applied in the entire facility from the inlet and to the outlet too to rotate the water into turbines .

The hydraulic engineering is based on the principles of fluid mechanics, water hydraulics etc to achieve practical engineering solutions.

The energy potential Is proportional to the amount of water flow through the turbine-generators and the head, water drop, and the water velocity in the water ways In the tunnel, facility, system, method , siphon, hybrid etc and so on . The water way, system , meuioα etc wnicπ are W3»«s« in MMS iiiiiwβiuwii «■« •• «*«»*<»■■•#**«■ herein in the facility may be a trench , crater , pit ,valley, island, mountains , tunnel, pipe, tube, intakes, canal, channel, ducts, spillways, siphon , weirs, dam, penstock or any other type and types of systems, methods, structure, facility, hybrid etc or various water ways and various water bodies wherein water or a fluid can flow, run, fall, or be stored .

It can always be substituted by any other type or types of water bodies ,systems, methods, facilities, technologies etc and so on and no limitation as to any varieties of water ways ,systems, methods, siphon , designs, facility, technologies, hybrid etc available, and the design, specification and procedure described herein will be used for all types of water ways , systems, facility, siphon , methods, hybrid etc must be read in the specification for the purpose of hydro power generation , marine renewable energy generation etc and so on and all other water bi-products.

For keeping hydrogen corporations in every country , electrical bunks in every country to run electrical vehicles on recharge batteries, eco tourism, claim carbon credits from the use of the Facility to reduce pollution , global warming etc.

The dimensions described herein can be modified with In the range for the electrical generations from few watts, small to any number of megawatts, big and very big generations for a single individual circuit, for individual project ,any where on the globe stc must be read in the specification for the purpose of hydro electrical generation and marine renewable energy generation snd other water byproducts etc and so on .

in a preferred embodiment, the invention uses the earth surface adjacent to the shore of the water body as the dam and the sea, >cean, river or any water body as the reservoir for water.

Head varies generation varies and by this the entire structure, Facility , entire system, innovation , configuration and every thing changes from a to z jointly and severally what so ever using ≥very science and technology with the state of the art available for the entire system, method, siphon , facility, hybrid etc for few watts , small and big generations with our innovation with the required specifications , dimensions etc consists of bringing the sea water ,ocean water or any water from any water body on the earth by a water way , by a method from at least the surface of the water body and going deep and extending to the very bottom of the water body to the water bed and coming from below the water bed into the ocean , the entire water body . The entire water body from top to the bottom and projecting from below the water body into the water body.

The tunnel ,siphon, method , facility etc is dug from the solid earth situated far away from the water body and below the water body level , the tunnel Is underground dug either few centimeters, meters, or kilometers etc below the solid earth , below the main sea level and this tunnel , facility, system , hybrid , siphon etc and so on will move forward towards the ocean floor ,ocean bed and into the water body etc and project out into the water body -so that the water is sucked inside the facility with the required velocity for the generation requirements independently .

The tunnel, pipe, siphon , structure, facility, hybrid etc and so on will pass the earth and will enter the ocean where the depth of the ocean is from at least few millimeters deep and to the very bottom of the water body or under the water bed projecting up into the water body , from the surface of the water body to the bottom of the water body any water body any where of the water body as required by the requirements of the electrical generations independently .

The inlet and the multiple inlets with dimensions at least from 12 inches to 1000 in diameter are inside the water body and the rest of the facility is under the earth below the sea level or In the water body itself and the outlet and the multiple outlets dimensions are at least from 12 inches to 1000 meters in diameter are open to the sky to the surface of the earth and above the main sea level Into the canal. The dimensions off the canal are at least βinches to 1000 meters diameter and 6 inches to 100 meters deep so that the water coming inside the facility from the inlet and multiple Inlets will circulate in the facility and is discharged out of the facility from the outlet and multiple outlets and join the ocean once again from the canal, the canal Is above main sea level.

Discharge from canal will be far away from the ocean and electricity spent on the pumps either coming from the system, method, siphon , hybrid will be directly or indirectly or can be drawn from the grid for lifting this water from the bottom to the surface of the earth and above main sea level .

The pressure from the ocean is transferred into the facility and water runs inside the facility turning the turbine-generators arranged in a cascading manner or any manner required because of various heads available and always a stable water flow and generating electricity non stop because of unending circulation of water in the facility and the raw material available Is more than 1.3 billion cubic kilometers of water in all the water bodies on the planet is required for our Invention.

The water head is created any where from the water surface to the bottom in the depth of the water body to the water bed and multiple heads and water velocity Is 100% stable and the tunnel is slanting and sloppily designed or any geometrically engineered angel or degree to suit the generation requirements independently .so the ocean water will rush and run down the facility with greater velocity from the inlet to the outlet.

With the turbine-generator erected vertically , submerged or any angle required turbine-generators of various models etc so the ocean water running down the facility will spin the turbine- generator erected in a cascading manner or any manner because of different heads and velocity and generate electricity non stop. This is a one time investment and profit for a life time because the super structures will be ever green and only the machinery should be changed for every 20 to 30 years or according to me usage .

The generation cost of one individual unit will be at least rs.1 to. The generation is ever green because of plenty of raw material available in all the water bodies and the raw material is water. A slanting ,sloped and sloppily water way starting from the earth outside the water body either from the water surface or right from the bottom of the water bed to bring the maximum water to run and to come Inside the system, method, facility, siphon, hybrid etc and so on at least 1 liters per every Individual second to maximum at least 60000000000000000000000000 liters per every individual second depending upon the individual electrical generation requirements of a individual project or site or place etc .
