Performance parameters analysis in 2D
Characterized the performance of flocculation tanks of different geometry (different ratios of flocculation tank height/baffle spacing), using parameters derived from a semi-empirical flocculation mode, calculated from numerical values of each nodes in the CFD solution.
- Parameter formulation: (word file)derivation of performance parameters (from Dr. Monroe Weber-Shirk).
- Preliminary simulation experiments: exploratory experiments with encouraging observations and findings about set-up of boundary conditions.
- Simulation experiments: characterize performance parameters as a function of flocculation tank height/baffle spacing ratio.
- Sensitivity analysis: further investigate the sensitivity of the results to different boundary condition settings at water-air interface and to different convergence(residual) level.
