Fall 2010 Contributions

For this Fall 2010 semester, I am working on the Inlet Manifold team. Some of our major achievements this semester include proving the presence of pressure recovery, and discovering the horizontal velocity component of the exiting jets. These contributed to the circular flow that we observed in dye tests on a model of the sedimentation tank.

Besides helping out with the actual experiments in general, my contributions this semester were mainly to help document our discoveries by:

• Taking videos, editing them and then posting them on Youtube (channel available here)
• Creating a summary videos page on the Wiki
• Compiling our dye test results into a document on potential design options together with Katie
• Providing graphics support on our reports
• Creating and updating the Design and Models page.

I was the primary author and secondary editor on our third Reflection Report. 

For our final report, I worked on a document that explains why and how we would increase the inlet manifold from a 6" to an 8" pipe as a potential retrofit as well as a design for a new plant. This was made available as an appendix to our final report.
