The length of each test run will be determined once we have the experimental device working. We currently do not know how the data will behave the kinetics of the bubble formation and thus we do not know how long each test run should the batch tests in the pressure/vacuum chaber will need to be. The data will be evaluated based on the level of dissolved oxygen in the water and how big the bubbles are. The goal is to determine the pressure and air flow rate that produce the biggest bubbles and lowest DO level. This should help us determine the optimum orifice size and its height above the outlet of the pipe.
