- Caulked holes from previous baffle layouts for 32 baffles to allow for reuse on secondary baffle system setup
- Drilled holes and cut baffles according to Adjustable Baffle System design
- Cut Pex tubing as spacers for secondary baffle system
- Assembled secondary baffle system
Outcomes
- Completed baffles for secondary baffle system to which when system is complete will allow for one system to be adjusted while another system is in the tank being tested
...
Accomplishments
- Calculated range of energy dissipation rates for various non-tapered baffle spacings to be tested using an energy dissipation rate of 0.4 mW/kg (various increments around the spacing for 0.4 mW/kg).
- Using 0.4 mW/kg because that is the energy dissipation rate used by the Design team

Outcomes
- Have range of values of spacings to be tested with adjustable baffle system to find an optimal energy dissipation rate. With both sets of baffles done and a range of dissipation rates to test we can turn on the plant and begin taking turbidity profiles.
