--edit--

never mind, i see it now!
when the water reservoir fills up to a certain water level the water gets flushed!


  Hi Free,
The tall tube on the left would be for back filling it. I modified the drawing to have less waste in it.
Water would flow counter clockwise. One thing this would be testing is if vacuum allows something like this to follow hydraulic theory.
Not sure who in here is familiar with hydraulics. The basic idea is that the 5 pounds of water in the largr diameter tube would be on a piston that is connected to a piston the one gallon of water is on. This would focus the force of the 5 pounds of water and would push the 1 pound of water higher.
If vacuum allows for hydraulic theory, then the more water in the discharge tube should lift the lesser amount of water in the inlet tube.

according to the last pic, i would say this would not stay static.  both pipes would drain.  i believe the 5sq.in. still will only allow <1psi.  since the pipe on the right is longer (and has 1psi), it will be the one to start the flow back.  with this help and the large dia of the left pipe (no help with capillary), air will find its way in and the water in the left pipe will now drain.  now you end with empty pipes and a tank of water going nowhere.

how close am i?

have a look at this....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heron%27s_fountain

from the page....

"Various versions of Heron's Fountain are used today in physics classes as a demonstration of principles of hydraulics and pneumatics."

i am starting to see my system not work.
the top water reservoir will empty out and the bottom tube will overflow with water :-(

[FreeEnergy]

i just have a gut feeling that the output siphon hose and the input capillary hose must be equal in diameter. it need to putout the same amount it puts in else it will overflow the system making it stop.
there must be a large water reservoir on top,...
this is just my opinion and no test(s) has been conducted yet.
someone may try it before me.

i know siphoning, tests must be made.
