The water collection unit is less deeply submerged than I would have liked. I will work on some geometry tweaks like shortening the height and widening the width of the collection cone to try and make some small improvements. I will also need to do some volume calculation calculations to see how many cycles we could do. I have a suspicion that the volume increasing with the square of the radius will be our friend here but I need to do the math
If the height of the cone is 5”, the volume is 2.5L and we can complete 15 cycles.
If the height of the cone is 7” we get 3.5L and a total of 7 cycles.
The exact specifics of the geometry we want to use can be finalized in the long term, but these volume calculations are promising.
