Sky Tap Technology

Concept design of a portable Unit

Clouds grow in size and Second impact condenses droplets to form rain drops

Water vapor Coalesces to form

droplets and visible clouds

Physics - How it Works

Prevailing wind direction

Electrical influence on Invisible water vapor creates hygroscopic

effect

Rain drops grow to sufficient size and precipitate out

Scientific Support

Imparting a space charge onto atmospheric aerosols increases the speed of

coalescence of water vapor by 700% to form water droplets.

(Vonnegut and Moore, 1958)

Enhancing the coalescence of water vapour in the atmosphere due to an

electrical influence, increases the size of water droplets.

(Tinsley, Rohrbaugh, Hei, & Beard, 2000)

To be effective at enhancing the coalescent collision efficiency of water

droplets “requires a certain minimum charge per electrically active cloud

particle of at least a few hundred elementary (electronic) charges on

aerosols or droplets with a radius of 10 - 20 µm,”

(Klain, Arkhipov, Pinsky, Feldman, & Ryabov 2004)

The effect of electric charges on small droplets is similar to the hygroscopic

effect of salts. Like droplets of salt solutions, droplets charged to a certain

degree require a lower super-saturation to grow by condensation (Harrison and Ambaum, 2008)

Cost of Development

Manufacture and test each unit to develop an operational data base

for an arid climate …………………….………...... $420,000 / unit Minimum required to show basic process from generating clouds to

inducing precipitation in 80% plus humidity…..................Two Units Minimum required for developing a data base and testing in a hot

climate such as the GCC with 60% plus humidity……....….Six Units For extensive testing in multiple geographic regions in a hot climate

with continuous humidity levels as low as 20%...........Twenty Units
