The“tubs” are filled according the Archimedes’ Law. So the weight of “tubs” are balanced. To open the upper and lower lock and turn the whole system by 180◦they need an engine of 22.5 kW which only use 1.5 kWh # I- Q; h# D9 b d" t9 `tvboxnow.com. T: |- ^% O) F

This is a fascinating canal in Scotland. Especially with a elevation of 79 ft between two canals. The swinging transportation is very genius design to save space.作者: Sweetvia 時間: 2013-12-20 06:19 AM
