In summary, the conversation discusses the idea of using mini turbines to generate electricity from water flow to an overhead tank. The person is looking for technical help and an estimate of the power output that can be generated from the system. They mention a flow rate of approximately 1 liter in 18 seconds and plan on storing the energy in a battery for future use. The estimated power output is 5 Watts assuming a pressure of 10 meters.

I have an idea on placing mini turbines(just taking its principle into account) to water flow to over head tank and i have thought of generating electricity,so kindly help me with some technical help,what amount of power can be generated through this?

Welcome to PF!

How much water is being moved and how does it get there? Can you provide a diagram of the system?

i don't have its diagram,but i can give you the flow rate of water=its approximately takes 18 seconds to fill a complete 1litre of water.can yo please provide me the power output that can be generated out of it,on an average atleast,i thought of storing it into battery and using it whenever it is necessary,so that i can save some unit of current in my home.

In order to find out the power you need the pressure. Since you don't seem to know, I'll just take a wild guess and assume it is 10m of head (pressure in units of height of water column). That would provide you a power of 5 Watts.
