Practical Engineering | Automatic Bell Siphon Explained @PracticalEngineeringChannel | Uploaded February 2017 | Updated October 2024, 17 hours ago.
This is a demo of a bell siphon I built in collaboration with a couple of engineering professors. There are certain cases where it would be nice to be able to create a siphon without any intervention, a self-priming or automatic siphon: the next level of siphonry. It's built out of an acrylic sheet and a piece of clear pipe. Thanks to Rolf Hut and Pete Marchetto for inviting me to collaborate on their project.
