Horizontal Flow Group
Accomplishments
Issues
- Created new MathCAD file for Horizontal Flow
- Changed several values of the vertical flow file to work for horiz. flow
- Documented code to indicate what needs to be changed and what currently does what
Issues
- Variables "w", "b", "h", and "s" are relative to the vertical flow file and represent different things in the horizontal flow file. Should these variables be renamed or noted for their difference?
- Width of the channel can now be input above a minimum
Goals for Upcoming Week
- Will be out of the country this upcoming week and will resume and hopefully complete code upon return
Floc Hopper Group
Accomplishments
Issues
- Fixed the lamella orientation so that the lamella are angling away from the entrance channel, as opposed to originally being angled towards it.
- Added to MtoA code so that floc hoppers will be arrayed the number of sedimentation bays within the tank.
Issues
- Still need to place the floc hoppers within the plant.
- Must add the MtoA floc hopper code to the sedimentation tank with pieces file when we are completed with it.
Goals for upcoming week
- Place floc hopper within plant, and add MtoA code to sed tank with pieces file.
- Update wiki page with final notes about floc hopper design and placement.

Materials List Group
Accomplishments
Issues
- Met with Heather to figure out the next step for our task
- Updated wiki page descriptions, removed redundant equations
- Re-did calculation for entrance tank volume
- Updated Variable Naming Guide for Materials List so that it can be run through the design tool. Test run with the design tool was successful
Issues
- We thought we needed to price the materials list, but it was determined that that was not necessary, at least for the time being.
Goals for upcoming week
- Talk to Monroe and Heather about what to do next with the materials list to make it most useful
- Prepare for final presentation
