Gravity-Fed Systems
Gravity-fed systems are designed to move water or other fluids from a higher elevation to a lower one using the force of gravity. These systems rely on the natural slope of the land, allowing fluids to flow without the need for pumps or mechanical devices. Common examples include irrigation systems in agriculture and water supply systems in rural areas.
In a gravity-fed system, the source of the fluid, such as a reservoir or water tank, is placed at a higher altitude. As the fluid flows downhill through pipes or channels, it can be distributed to various locations, providing an efficient and low-energy method for fluid transport.
