Water from the particular rive

Water from the particular river is pumped onto the surface of the raft by means of a pump. As this pump is powered by solar energy, the flow rate is dependent upon the weather conditions. In sunshine it pours at a rate of 50 litres per minute; a powerful wall of water from the water pipe. If it is cloudy and there is a correspondingly lower pump output of between 10-15 litres per minute, only a slight jet of water flows. No water flows at night. The loop is then interrupted
