Dwarven Water Reactor Design
Due to the relatively low power draw of a screw pump, a self-powering assembly can be made with a water wheel that still leaves plenty of excess power for other uses. This is undeniably an exploit and possibly a bug.

To get it working, you must start the pump manually.*

It is good to have a ready source of water to refill the machine, as water tends to escape and evaporate. As the water level decreases, the water wheel may intermittently stop providing power; when the level falls below 4/7, the wheel stops providing power altogether.

Hydro Power

Power is used to drive devices, typically replacing or improving tasks normally done by dwarves, such as pumping water using a screw pump, milling certain types of food at a millstone, or moving minecarts. Power is produced by windmills and water wheels
