Fall 2009 Mid-Semester Contributions
I am As a new member of the Design Team . So far this semester I have been working on updating the materials list per request of the engineers in Honduras. Most of the challenge has been learning to navigate the Aguaclara online infrastructure and design applications; however, my partner Caspar Valk and I have made substantial additions to the materials list Mathcad code as well. Our focus has been on decomposing total volumes for each component of the plant into separate volumes and surface areas for the walls and floors. To this point we have completed calculations for the entrance, flocculation, and sedimentation tanks, as well as and exit channel. We hope these changes will be helpful to the engineers in the future.
