New electric power generation system with water drops based on the principle of electrostatic induction are considered. The preliminary experiments on the devise with one stage for the system are carried out for examining the possibility of effective collection of the electric charge. Dependence on devise parameters such as an applied voltage on the electrode, the length and width of its plate are examined in this experiment. It is found that amount of the collected charge increases with the applied voltage and the length of the electrode plate and the amount decreases with the width of the plates. It is also found that there is the upper limit on the amount of charge owing to water drops hitting on the electrode plate. For the survey of an electric power generation station with multi-stage system, the another device with two stage is constructed and examined.自然エネルギーを利用した発電方式として,従来の水力発電に対し,水滴を利用した新しい考えを提示する。このシステムは,静電誘導により水滴に電荷を持たせ,この水滴が重力によって同極性の電荷間の反発力に逆らって電荷を水槽に集電する。さらに,蓄電後は水のみを排出し,コンデンサーに集電する。次の段で再び電荷を持たせ,集電することを繰り返すという発電方法である。これは,静電発電機としてケルビンらが油滴を用いて考えた極めて古い方法であるが,我々はこれを発電システムとしての可能性を探るため,多段システムを考え,このための基礎実験を行った。
