RainSavor Updates
Final design parameters have been selected and evaluations of expected collection conditions specified. Various siphons have been tested for functionality - all of which seem to be successfully creating siphon events at approximately equival intervals of water collection. The frame that will be used for primary water collection is modelled and siphon designs ready for printing. We are in the process of integrating electrical and mechanical design components and aim to perform field tests in the next couple weeks.
Electronics prototypes are being built and tested; experimentation with probe functionality in various conditions is also being researched to determine the capabilites of the EC measurement system. Additionally, design drawings and various mechanical prototypes involving different styles of siphoning and EC measurement collecting are being developed.
A mechanical engineer and two electrical engineers have been assigned to develop this device.
