Challenges for Summer 2009
Subteam Leader: Steve Mitchell
Number of team members needed: 3
Important team member skills:
Challenges
CDC
- Work with the team Honduras to evaluate the current linear CDCs at the Tamara and Cuatro Comunidades.
- Need to make the non linear mathCAd file more robust.
- Incorporate how long tubing will need to be.
- Figure out how the non linear CDC will fit into the overall plant design.
- Consider connecting two different tubing sizes to accommodate for the distance the flow control module and the stock tank.
- Extend the design to work for a large flow rate range.
- Run experiments to evaluate the materials being used i.e. flexibility of the tubing.
- Test the flow ranges with varying tube lengths.
Rapid Mixer
- Modify the rapid mix mathCAD so that the flocculator first section baffle spacing is no longer a constraint on the orifice collector channel width. In other words modify the code so that an aspect ratio (channel width/water depth) is specified rather a fixed depth.
