Sistema bombeamento movido a energia eólica: praticidade e economia na captação de água

Abstract

The pumping system powered by wind energy is a way of lifting water that is based on a rosary pump model for its development, in addition to the advantages it promotes, it uses simple elements for its construction. The project in question aims to serve the Ponta do Carvão community in Santo Amaro-BA, in which there is a community well where people draw water using a rope-bucket system, which is inefficient and tiring, and as an alternative To this method this work presents a proposal for a pumping system powered by wind energy, where it is not necessary much physical effort or use of electricity to trigger the pumping. From this perspective, it became necessary to bring discussions about the poor distribution of water resources in Brazil, wind energy and also alternative methods of pumping. The results obtained through this project point to the potential of the pumping system driven by the force of the winds, this factor being evaluated based on a theoretical study and propositions, since only the partial construction of the prototype of the pumping system was carried out so that the efficiency of the structure associated with capturing and transmitting wind force was not evaluated. Thus, during the research, data were collected, explaining the functionality and how the prototype will be made.
