摘要
The water powered hydraulic ram, when housed in a supporting water-tight structure deep within a moving body of water, functions essentially as a four cycle engine with water as it prime mover. It is a linear motor, just as if it were powered by ordinary fossil-based fuels. It harnesses the force of moving water and the pressure of water at a depth and becomes a prime mover whose output is hydro-power. The component parts of this linear motor are a hydraulic ram cylinder, sliding ram pistons, a venturi/eductor jet pump, electronic piston positioning sensors, solenoid controlled valves and process program software. It is positioned to face an oncoming, irresistible downstream water force. It may be either singular or in plurality as an array. The ideal application is for a reverse osmosis membrane to remove the salt from seawater providing unlimited quantities of potable, fresh drinking water.
