Teach in On November 2nd, our team presented our Teach In to the Agua Clara class. Our presentation presented our original problem, pressure recovery, and introduced our new problem of horizontal flow. We discussed our revised hypotheses, our designs and models, and the experiments and results we have obtained thus far. Our presentation finished with a discussion of our future challenges and ideas for new designs for the Inlet Manifold to be implemented in future Agua Clara plants.
Reflection Report #4: Our team continued dye testing on two new models, testing the effects of baffles and tapered spacing on the manifold. The previous issues we experienced with our pressure sensor were resolved and we were able to collect data, measuring the pressure difference between the beginning and end of the manifold. We also used our apparatus as a monometer to visually measure the pressure differential.
