Abstract: The invention refers to a gravitational hydrostatic compensator that is actually a hydrostatic engine, whose potential kinetic power can bear a load upstream, and downstream it can exceed the original load by thousand times, by using the line, the load height and hydrodynamic paradoxes. It is built of steel and reinforced concrete; it has a constructive configuration and selective mounting, varying according to the potential kinetic power generator (storage reservoir, dam, hydrographic basin etc) and to the mechanical work per time unit that it has to achieve. The potential kinetic power is environment-friendly, ecological; planet Earth stores endless amounts of such energy type: it makes the gravitational hydrostatic compensator usable in agriculture and all branches of industry. The gravitational hydrostatic compensator consists of collector (1) with a lowland area for absorbing any inert liquid with mechanical suspension up to the load line (level II) and a load area of the liquid where, by using the load line and height (h), all mechanical work per time unit is achieved, ranging between the load line and the sliding valve (4), upstream which a hydrodynamic paradox can occur. The suction branch (2) removes the inert liquid layers, along with the mechanic suspensions by its lower aperture, at the bottom of the hydrotechnical construction ascedentally, selectively, towards the lowland of the collector (1), as induced by the liquid flow due to gravitation by opening the sliding valve (4), the latter being also a flow and pressure adjusting device. The relief branch (3) receives such potential kinetic power by means of slide valve (4); it can bear a load over 1,000 times greater than the initial load by using the line and load height up to the hydraulic clearance (5), performing all mechanical work per time unit, as intended to be performed as definite object and place, illustrated as follows: - it prevents and eliminates pollution, clogging and ecological disaster in hydrotechnic constructions, thus extending their life by over 800 years, as compared to 50, it provides water supplies to big consumers, in agriculture it provides flow, pressure and space as necessary without electric power consumption, devices, spare parts or water loss 65 percent (source: plant recovers water from drainage is conveyed where we irrigate; electric power is produced at the same time in amounts up to 3...10 times greater than the dam for the same flow values (Q), by commissioning hydro-electric turbines. The hydraulic clearance (5) increases and ensures length of life and safe operation by attenuating the liquid impact to the soil. Starting and controlling the potential energy is performed by devices (6) and (7) respectively, mounted in the lowland area of collector (1); by the same devices (6) and (7) the flooded area is also drained and the water is recovered. The flow of the liquid in collector (1) by gravity, from level I...II generates a negative pressure that induces a continuous flow of the liquid layers (formerly inert), with mechanic suspensions that had been enclosed into the lower part of the hydrotechnical construction to the users. The gravitational hydrostatic compensator in figures 7...11 is also a hydraulic pressure step up transformer in which the primary hydraulic cycle consists of dam water, by flow by gravity with reduced line and load height, and the secondary hydraulic cycle, consisting of the relief branch (3) made up of main pipes, with a lamellar flow slope of 2.75‰, down to the hydraulic clearance (5) with large line and load height, thus creating ideal characteristics for hydraulic pressure step down transformers (ejectors), whose purpose is to triple the water flows (Q) for the users of the gravitational hydrostatic compensator.The main parameters of the gravitational hydrostatic compensator are calculated by formulas shown in figure 7, as follows: IMAGE>and the horizontal operating range of circulated liquid IMAGE>, where: g= gravity acceleration = 9.81m/sec2>, h= level drop in figure 7 h =
