Water and gravity: look at this video

[andrea]

Hello, look at this video

I've found it interesting. Do you think is it a fake? I've not found this "lazarev' circular" in the web.

Greetings, andrea

Looks cool..  No idea how it works.

If there is no temperature difference between top (i.e. condensation part) and bottom (i.e. evaporation part), then it is a fake.

The cappilary effect does not require an imbalance of temperature.
the evaporation and condensation cycle plays no part in this.

see here for a detailed explaination and mathematics
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_action

this can be used to gain energy from the rising water, but to do this of great magnitude,.. you would need a 3 acre field covered with hundreds of thousands of tiny pipes, each rising an inch or two, then another layer repeated above, and stack them up to a substantial height, and a volume of water that could actually perform work.

there doesnt seem to be a maximum height, because altitude doesnt prevent the effect.

it works at sea level and even inside a submarine, it works on top of a mountain, or on a plane, or even out in space.
theres no power involved, its like water spreading across the surface of a table.
Its just a matter of the diameter of the pipe, compared to the fluidity of the liquid.
a thick oil can be made to capilate a wider pipe

as long as the pipe is shorter than the maximum liquid column that pipe can support with that liquid.. then it can drip out into a higher reservoire, and gain potential energy in the system.

Yes, this could solve the question. But the tube doesn't seem so thin, isn't it? A youtube user's citation, in that video, address to the property of salted water mixed with pure water explained (for example) in the book Etidorhpa. But it seems to me that this is an example of capillary action.
