Floc Hopper Group
Accomplishments
- A summary of major work completed since last meeting based on last meeting's identified outcomes/issues
Issues
- Difficult and unresolved issues
- Plans for action
Goals for upcoming week
- Determined the variables used and applied in the floc hopper design.
- Started writing preliminary code for MtoA for floc hopper.
- Discussed any other possible variables needed for the design (ex - angle of the floc hopper).
Issues
- We had a few questions regarding shape, placement, and connection of the floc hopper to other plant parts.
- We will discuss our issues with Heather or Monroe in the upcoming week.
Goals for upcoming week
- After understanding our questions, we will write the MtoA code for the floc hopper.
- If we have the necessary time, we will test our design extensively with different plant geometries.

- Updated the code to move the ports from the top to the bottom of the tank. Also, we adjusted the height arrangement of the baffles to agree with this new layout. We ensured that these edits scale properly.
Issues
- We plan to continue commenting on the code as this greatly helps with understanding the progress of the programs
Goals for upcoming week

...
- Met and discussed the variables needed for exit channel
- Looked into what was meant for "direct step method"
Issues
- Moody diagram for turbulent flow is based upon the Colebrook equation, which has the friction factor on both sides of the equation. Make MathCAD code iterative to find the factor that works?
- Still unsure of what the direct step method entails
Goals for upcoming week
- Meet with Monroe to discuss the best approach to tackling this problem
