How to Make a Non Stop Heron's Fountain From a Plastic Bottle | Free Energy Fountain

How to Make a Non-Stop Heron's Fountain from a plastic bottle | free energy fountain
Make a non-stop water fountain out of 3 plastic bottles and straws. This really cool self-pouring liquid science trick is a great experiment to try at home.
Materials:
• Hot glue
• Permanent marker
• 3 plastic water bottles with caps
• Power drill
• Scissors
• 4-6 thin plastic straws or coffee stirrers
• Water

How To:
Part 1: Prepare the bottles, caps, and straws
1. Label your first water bottle “1,” the second bottle “2,” and the third bottle “3,” so that you can keep
track of them as you build your fountain.
2. Use scissors to cut water bottle 3 in half. Set it aside.
3. Find a drill bit that will make a hole that is slightly larger than the diameter of your straws. Use this drill
bit throughout the next steps.
4. Drill two holes in the cap of water bottle 3. Use this cap as a guide to drill two holes in the caps of
water bottles 1 and 2, so that all three caps have two holes drilled in the same location. Safety: an
adult should assist when using a power drill.
5. Use hot glue to secure one of the caps to the bottom of water bottle 2. Drill two holes in the bottom of water bottle 2, using the cap as a guide. Set this bottle aside for now. Safety: an adult should assist when using a hot glue gun.
6. Cut a small slit at the end of one straw. Place the straw with the slit onto the end of a second straw so that they overlap approximately one inch, and use hot glue to secure in place. Use this procedure to create a straw that is approximately the length of two water bottles (straw 1), and two straws that are approximately the length of one water bottle (straws 2 and 3).
7. At this point, you are ready to construct your fountain!
Part 2: Assemble the fountain as the shown in the video
Part 3: Add water and watch the fountain work! 1. To make your fountain work, first, pour water into the bottle 3. This water will run through straw 1 into bottle 1. 2. Once bottle 1 is full of water, turn the entire fountain upside-down so that the water from bottle 1 runs through straw 2 into bottle 2. 3. Once bottle 2 is full, turn the fountain back over. 4. Now, pour water into the top of bottle 3 again. This should start the fountain!
Scientific resonates :
The fountain you just created out of water bottles and straws is known as Heron’s Fountain, named after the Greek inventor, Heron of Alexandria. A Heron’s Fountain is a hydraulic machine that uses concepts of fluid dynamics such as gravity and air pressure to create a water spout. How does your “Nonstop” Heron’s Fountain work? All Heron’s Fountains have three parts: a water basin, water supply, and air supply. Bottle 3 was your water basin, bottle 2 was the water supply, and bottle 1 was the air supply. When you turned the fountain back over in Part 3, Step 3, the water in bottle 2 in the middle of the fountain acted as your water supply. This also allowed for bottle 1 to act as the fountain’s air supply. Then, when you poured water into the top of bottle 3 (the water basin) gravity caused it to travel through straw 1 into bottle 1. The addition of water into bottle 1 displaced some of the air supply and forced this air into bottle 2 through straw 2. The addition of air into bottle 2 increased the pressure in bottle 2 and forced water up through straw 3. This pressure caused water to spray out of the top of the fountain! You probably found that this fountain was not actually “nonstop” and did not work forever. A Heron’s Fountain will continue to work until either the water level in bottle 1 rises higher than straw 2 (preventing air from moving into bottle 2), or until the water supply level in bottle 2 falls below straw 3.

Does this work continuously?

[@Timbo_tango]

No. Every video of the heron's fountain cuts out just before the fountain runs out. Its up there with unexplained mystries like "the cameraman never dies"
