The active water hydroelectric system uses a hydraulic ram pump to increase pressure to turbine blades using water from a low head water source, the system comprising a housing, drive pipe, delivery pipe, pressure vessel, turbine, waterwheel, and first and second generators. The drive pipe is fluidly coupled to the low head water source and pressure vessel. A primary flow moves across a turbine turning a first generator. Primary and secondary flows turn the waterwheel which turns the second generator. The passive hydroelectric system a floatation device such as a ship or barge. A vertical siphon pipe and vector siphon pipe comprise a siphon mechanism that delivers water to the hydraulic ram pump. A primary flow of water flows from the pump to a drive pipe to the turbine. Primary and secondary flows of water turn the waterwheel. Water exits through an exit pipe.

This invention uses atmospheric pressure and gravity, only to power a new energy system. Renewable, clean energy from new sources is much needed in the U.S. and the world today. Many possible locations exist in the U.S. that this new system can be installed. If the potential of this new system is fulfilled, the country's economy will benefit greatly over the next many years. Thousands of permanent jobs will be created.

Devices and methods for converting hydraulic drag force into rotational force for the generation of electricity. A suction is created within a lumen, due to hydraulic drag force, when liquid passes by a lumen opening positioned under the surface of a moving liquid and facing the direction said liquid is moving toward. When such submerged lumen is connected to a turbine, this suction pulls liquids or gases through said turbine to create rotational force for electricity generation. Such rotational force can be increased and optimized by connecting multiple turbines with attached submerged lumens together as a Tirpak Turbine.

The present invention is a hydroelectric system having a siphon component, a generator component, and an electronics and control component, which produces an inflow of water caused by a vacuum initially created within the system and further aided by hydrostatic pressure. The inflow is directed to a ramp where it drives a water turbine located within the respective electrical generating system to produce electrical power.
