I am currently a member of the Design team, working in a sub-team with Ben Jones to develop the floc hopper for the plant. Our task involves writing the MtoA code for the floc hopper, as well as testing out different sizes of floc hoppers to fit the changing geometries of various plants. So far, after adjusting myself to the various programs and codes that the team uses, I have determined the best dimensions for the geometry of the floc hopper by viewing and studying various MathCad codes for sedimentation tanks and inlet channels, and have rewritten the MathCad code that defines and calculates the geometric dimensions of the floc hopper. I have also created the Floc Hopper Design Program page for the wiki, as well as the inputs and outputs page for the floc hopper variables. Ben and I will soon finish writing the MtoA code, as well as begin testing out the floc hopper with different plant sizes to confirm that our floc hopper will fit for any plant.
