It is one of the simplest and the most environmentally friendly devices for such applications. Therefore, we searched for a similar invention which could increase a pump head and found that hydraulic ram pump (HRP) might be interested. However, the installation of the twin column is working as the air chambers that can avoid damage to the pump system due to water hammer and smooth the flow rate.
The results did not show any improvement in the pump head. The experiment on the twin column was conducted at King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT). This came across when we learned that the people in Pachan village, Ubon Ratchathani Province, Thailand, tried to increase the pump head by using the twin column which was placed close to the pump exist as shown in Figure 1. In a situation where the people could not afford to buy a new pump. 1 Despite many different pump designs and installations, the purpose of this paper is to increase the pump head in those remote areas of limited use of pumps.
A possible low-cost alternative solution to supply water in remote areas is required. This is a real and serious problem in many places, especially in the north-east of Thailand where the people live in poverty and remote rural areas. A variety of workable solutions to the problem exist, such as adding another pump in series, or installation of an over-design pump, but the added pump will generally cost. This can occur during a drought when water levels in rivers or canals fall, and the head or lift increases. Installed water pumps in some cases are insufficient to meet head or lift fluctuations. Ideally, a pump should deliver flow at a pressure or head efficiently and reliably over a wide range of operating conditions. The optimal HRP will make it possible to ensure the required performance (delivery, head, efficiency) of the combined system. Experimental determination of the optimal values for these parameters will make it possible to provide for a feasible design of HRP in the given pump. It reveals that the more discharge head is required, the less flow can be lifted which results in a high number of valve beats per minute of the waste valve. The combined system can operate at a low flow rate with a high head without extra energy and no overloading. Therefore, HRP was adjusted to pump water in the range that the waste valve was functioning. The system was working only at a certain range of flow rates for a power supply by the pump. The experiment on the combined system operation was investigated.

The HRP was connected in series with the pump. It illustrated the case where energy in rivers was not enough to drive HRP and a pump alone could not lift water to the required head. This method was used to demonstrate a possible low-cost alternative solution to supply water in remote areas. The combined pump and hydraulic ram pump (HRP) was presented to evaluate the technical feasibility for increasing pump head.
