This fall I have been working on the FCM Linearization and Calibration subteam. Initial research was done to acquire data for the kinematic viscocity viscocities of chlorine and alum to see if the values used for calculation are different from those tabulatedthe actual values. I have also been involved in trouble shooting to determine the cause of experimental deviation from theoretical models. We think this is mainly from minor headloss that was neglected in the original calculations. One source of this is variation in the inner diameter of plastic tubing so tests are being done to find the exact inner diameter. Work is also being done to set up a replication of the system used in Honduras to reproduce data collected there and to create a consistent method for designing Flow Control Modules to meet a desired flow rateThere were calculations done by previous teams and much time was spent reading and understanding these and trying to figure out what problems need to be addressed.
