Most zawafas today are constructed entirely of metal, althoughoriginal designs were wooden. Rather than each bucket dumping water intothe same central trough within the driving wheel diameter, troughs betweenthe spokes of the driving wheel receive the dumped water and channel it toa common trough alongside the wheel. In this way a stronger, double-rimwheel can be utilized for deep, heavy lifts or where all metal constructionis used, and the water need not be lifted much above the desired upperwater elevation. Table 3.5 gives some typical performance data of metalzawafas.

Since thecontainers do not loop below the wheel, as in the Persian wheel, thenoria wheel must have a diameter slightly larger than the total statichead. There are a large variety of noria designs and installations and itis probably for this reason that almost no performance or cost data isavailable on this device.Although norias can be driven by almost any type of prime mover,the name Vfnoria” has often been used when referring specifically to wheelsthat are driven by water. Such water-driven norias have paddles whichare pushed by the swift flow of a water force, e.g., Figure 3.21. Ofcourse, the power supplied to the paddles must be sufficient to lift thewater and overcome friction. Therefore, the size (and weight) of the
