Abstract

Abstract: The primary goal of this project was to design, construct, and conduct an experimental investigation into the operation of a Pedal Powered Water Pump (POWP), which is used for irrigation of gardens and local drinking water supplies. POWP is made up of a pedal-powered pump. The single-acting pump is set up on its stand such that the driven shaft of the pump is directly in line with the wheel of the bicycle. By moving the connecting rod forward and backward while pedaling, the bicycle rotates the pump, which releases water from the sump. POWP offers irrigation and drinking water in rural areas without electricity. POWP offers clean air, no pollution, and wholesome activity. POWP lowers the rising cost of energy. POWP is intended to be a portable irrigation system that may be utilized in a variety of locations. The experimental inquiry was carried out, and the POWP's performance was tested at various rpms. The findings show that the POWP had discharged a significant amount. The POWP uses solely manual power, which significantly lowers the utility expense. According to experimental findings,mechanical energy is employed to elevate water up toa height of 2 to 5 feet
