    This video, this random video that I found completely by chance all those years ago while trying to look up terrarium build suggestions has given me years and years of joy, education and entertainment. I am so thankful for this video and for all you have done for all of us, Cody. Thank you for being amazing.

    @raykent3211 Před 6 lety +101

    Great video... may I make one tiny criticism? Having the exit of the tube into a collecting jar below the level of the source of the water produces a siphon effect which increases the flow rate above that which you'd otherwise get. If you had done the same thing with the higher level water source, having evacuated the air from the tube, that too would drain purely from the siphon effect. So your explanation is fine, but the demo is a bit wonky.

    • @BenjaminCronce
      @BenjaminCronce Před 6 lety +1

      should have had the peak of the tube just a hair over 1 atmosphere of pressure high.

    • @MrChickenselects
      @MrChickenselects Před 2 lety +2

      that's obvious though its just for exaggeration on such a small model you want to see the water get moving

    • @oystersoupkitchenfloorwaxm1457
      @oystersoupkitchenfloorwaxm1457 Před 2 lety

      i understand that some siphoning is occurring that's probably for sure, but how noticeable is the effect when we are talking about water in an aquifer? wouldn't the resistance from the sand kind of stump the effect a good amount? maybe even cause it to break at some point? especially since the further away it gets from the hole the harder it is to keep the siphon going.
      again am assuming there is some siphoning going on but am just asking if a siphon is actually an effective method to pump in this situation, this being a small scale probably yes, but what about a real confined aquifer? plus i think the pressure in the modelled confined aquifer was enough to demonstrate it can climb to well above the height of the ground (despite the small scale), which is just like real life. but again again the draining into the jar probably had some siphon action going.
      i guess what am asking is how strong is the siphon action and where are it's limits? is the sand not fine enough to disrupt the siphon?

    My family lives in an area in the Nebraska Sandhills where for about about 5 square miles it is perfect for having an Artesian well or flow and well as we call it. We have have over 10 i believe on the property, the oldest dating back to 1892 and none of them have ever stopped flowing throughout their lifetime. One of them is powerful enough that when it was dug in the 40's they had put an extra 20 feet of pipe on the drill stem to cap it off before cutting it and even then the water flowed out. There is also a 4 inch well in our lake that fills it up too.

      He would need a sample of low permeable fluid-bearing rock and a high pressure liquid that is able to tear the rock apart. I think using the vaccum chamber and a small water pump he could model hydraulic fracturing with water to release olive oil for example. Would be interesting to see.

    • @another90daystochangethis34
      @another90daystochangethis34 Před 6 lety +2

      Fracking's main purpose is oil, not gas. And considering that oil is less dense than water, fracking's function is simpler to understand than water wells. All you have to do is shoot water and sand into the source rock so the oil can come out and float out.

    • @zeldamon5
      @zeldamon5 Před 6 lety

      denizen68 also pressurised due to the layer of water beneath many oil deposits and the layer of gas above.When oil comes up under its own pressure it is primary extraction and the well itself is a Gusher.

    • @muttlyone2964
      @muttlyone2964 Před 6 lety

      Oil is pumped out of the ground via pump jacks that have a pump attached at the bottom and the pump jack rotates which causes the pump to pull the oil to the surface through the tubing. The pump jack is basically like a tire pump.

    Hi Cody,
    unfortunately you put the the end of the tube at the same level as the bottom of the aquarium. This way the water will drain itself since the the flowing water in the tube creates a lower pressure. Just like you can siphon your cars gas tank with a tube and sucking on it if on end is lower than the gasoline level .
    You should have put a vertical tube in the sand and show the Confined Aquifer Model by the water rising in it.

    • @jovanbergh33
      @jovanbergh33 Před 6 lety +11

    • @CatchAllEntertainmentToday
      @CatchAllEntertainmentToday Před 6 lety +5

      The well is pressured regardless. You are putting water under pressure. He adds enough weight to get it out. Sure, putting the collection at the same level of the ground allowed for the water to stick and continue to flow faster for longer. But this still properly shows the concept miniaturized. Think of the amount of pressure real aquifers (and other gas/liquid chambers trapped underground) are under, and how large of an area they can encompass.

      Just watch it again. Sometimes learning something new isn't a one go kinda thing. Or read Wikipedia. Or watch more videos on the topic. I think he did a good job though.

      An aquifer is groundwater stored in sediment beneath the earth. Many places get their water by digging into the aquifer, collecting the water, cleaning it, and pumping it into water towers. Water towers are connected to the water your get through your faucet. The weight of the water in the towers, which are higher up than your sink, push the water into your house when you "turn on" (open a valve in) your faucet.
      The video is demonstrating that confined aquifers have a hard time replenishing water due to the weight of the land above them pressurizing the sand and preventing it from re-absorbing water, meaning if there was a drought and people were taking from confined aquifers as a source of water, it may eventually run out.

      when you dig a hole in the dry sand at a beach, the wet sand underneath is the aquifer.

      I’ll simplify what everyone else said. Aquifer is a fancy word for a well

    Aquatard is considered offensive. I believe the politically correct term is hydrologically challenged.

    I'm taking a Geology class right now and this is a nice explanation of Aquifers. I especially liked the example of how a cone of depression works. Thanks Cody!

    Nice model and good information always been interested in geology studyed it at school for two years. I live in the mountains of Spain and can see various aquifers actually working I watch the plants they tell you where the water is.

    Very fascinating, thanks. I own a well in a valley bottom that at one time was a lake so it seems very similar to your example. I have my well 200ft down and it goes through 4 aquifers and has a static height of 20ft in the summer

  • @teampingu
    @teampingu Před 6 lety

    Thanks Cody this is super interesting. I like that you give an example of when this was done in the real world and what effect it had. I would be interested to learn about other large scale man made geological issues we could cause, or have caused in the past. Thanks again.

    You made a sand boil!! A lot of aquifers are in sand layers, there aquifers that are in fractured Bedrock or gravel that don't compress when the water is removed. Great video on still mechanics and aquifers.

    I would love to see more geology videos. Maybe try some perched aquifers, that would be interesting to model.

    @ErykaSoleil Před 6 lety

    This is super cool, thanks for posting! I think at least one of my kids will be intrigued by it as well. :) I knew that areas like coastal southern Virginia had the problem of compacting soil, but I had no idea California was having the same sort of issues (in retrospect, it makes sense the two would have similar concerns). Count me as a new subscriber!
