...
In

baffles
...
are

of
...
the

floctank.
...
The

heights
...
of
...
the
...
baffles
...
change
...
to
...
account
...
for
...
headloss,
...
and
...
to

ensure

area
...
at

all

times.
...
In

the

are

drawn

from

the

Technical Program Outline
1) A new layer, "baffle,"
...
is
...
created
...
to
...
draw
...
all
...
of
...
the
...
baffles
...
in.
...
2)
...
The
...
baffles
...
are
...
placed
...
iteratively
...
in
...
each
...
channel
...
from
...
left
...
to
...
right
...
of
...
the
...
floc
...
tank.
...
4)
...
All
...
of
...
the
...
baffles
...
are
...
unioned
...
as
...
one
...
object
...
to
...
allow
...
the
...
ports
...
to
...
be
...
subtracted
...
later
...
in
...
a
...
single
...
command.
...
5)
...
The
...
layer
...
is
...
set
...
to
...
"0"
...
so
...
that
...
the
...
"baffle"
...
layer
...
can
...
be
...
frozen.
...
6)

The
