Couette flow induced by one moving wall
We use a form of a Navier-Stokes equation to solve for the velocity profile when Couette flow is caused by one moving wall near a static wall, with fluid in between. This is Exercise 5.3 in Mark Clark's Transport Modeling for Environmental Engineers and Scientists.

A deep dive into calculations of the Langelier saturation index (LSI)
Просмотров 3,8 тыс.4 года назад
This is an example problem for my drinking water treatment class, EES 3030, in the Department of Environmental Engineering and Earth Sciences at Clemson University. The LSI is useful for determining whether a water will precipitate calcium carbonate or whether it will be corrosive and etch calcium from the surfaces it contacts. If the LSI is greater than zero, it's a precipitation-prone situati...

Centering equations with a right-justified number in Microsoft Word
Просмотров 135 тыс.5 лет назад
When writing technical documents like engineering reports or scientific manuscripts, equations are often necessary. How to format and align the equations and their numbers can sometimes be tricky. There are several videos online showing a table method for equations, but another method is to use tab stops. I didn't find a good, concise video for the tab-stop method, so I put this one together. T...
Calcium Hardness Titration with Calculations to get ppm as CaCO3
Просмотров 28 тыс.6 лет назад
One way to measure the hardness due to calcium in water is using a titration method with EDTA and eriochrome blue black indicator. Others have described similar titration approaches, with one nice video being: ruclips.net/video/Wj4-nQmW28s/видео.html. Here the goal is to explain why a quick and dirty multiplier of 20 is used to get us to units of mg/L (or ppm) as CaCO3, which are commonly used ...
Total Alkalinity Titration Method and Calculations
Просмотров 45 тыс.6 лет назад
Measuring total alkalinity of a water sample can be done with a bromocresol green indicator, which changes from blue to yellow when acid is added. This video describes the method briefly, but more importantly, describes the chemistry behind the method. The most common units for reporting alkalinity of water samples is mg/L (or ppm) as CaCO3. This video describes how to arrive at those units fro...

Backwash of Granular Media Filter v2
Просмотров 85 тыс.7 лет назад
During a water treatment plant tour I shot video of the backwash process. This takes about an hour, so I shot several clips and put them together to show each step of the backwash process. This filter is dual media, anthracite coal and sand. This is a very common setup for granular media filtration at drinking water treatment plants. The backwash is done with water that has already been through...
Labview programs to control a Masterflex peristaltic pump via RS-232 serial communication
Просмотров 8 тыс.7 лет назад
Here I walk the viewer through a couple simple labview programs ("virtual instruments" [VIs]) that control a Masterflex peristaltic pump. These use RS-232 communication over a serial cable through a COM port. We’ve done this on a few pumps, but the most recently purchased was EW-07551-20. (Or just 07551-20; not sure if the EW is necessary). The VIs are available on our blog post: cecas.clemson....

Slowly? That's a tremendous volume drawing down; you just emptied a large swimming pool's worth of water in just a few seconds!
Thank you so much!! It really works
THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHH
Thanks a lot.
U ARE A LEGEND!
How can we get a design blueprint for a system that works in the same way?
Why does the equation get kinda "smooshed in" for a lack of a better word lol
finally a hero that i need.. thanks man
5 years later, still helping folks! thanks man
how can i do this automatically?
GOATED!!
Our whole class used this video as presentation to understand backwashing...from IIT Bhubaneswar
That scale on the left doesn't show up for me, how can i see it?
That appears and disappears when I click "ruler" in the View ribbon. (Mac version of Word). Not sure if it can be hidden separately from the top ruler...
Currently writing my thesis and of course I end up on your page! Teaching me through my undergrad just wasn't enough! Hope you are doing well, thanks for this and everything else! -Nick Richardson (Class of 21)
Haha! Great that we could reconnect via RUclips. Hope the thesis writing goes smoothly.
I am also working in the wastewater field in Vietnam
Thank you Sir 🙏
Amazing! so helpful
Sorry but chapter 10 of the book is titled filtration and not disinfection
4 years later, still helping folks! thanks man
You're a wizard. But a follow up question, it seems to make my equations appear in inline, vertically condensed format. It screws up sums and integrals...
Yeah, this method has that drawback...
WOW.
Great work man, I think the guy who invented Word doesn't even know this.
Thanks you so much to explain in an easy way, I am biochemistry students... doing my titration to determine hardness of water for my internal assessment.
By using tab equation font changes format. In more complex equations (for example containing summation symbol) this procedure is not appropriate.
True, this method has that disadvantage...
How can we add hyperlink or something like that to properly referencing it in other part of document.
That's cross-referencing, but I don't have anything prepared to show that part...
Thanks. God Bless U my brother
Short and straight to the point, thank you!
You are a God!
Help It seems that I have hidden the "tab stop" bar... Where from can I activate it again?
Go to 'view' tab then check box the 'Ruler'
Thank you for sharing. It is very useful.
what is the view so you have those tab markings
You probably figured it out by now, but in my Mac version of Word, I go to the View ribbon and click "ruler"
What about the [Mg2+]? All those magnesium ions look so lonely. All the other ions got to participate in the fun equation.
Thank you sir!
Man, you are a genius. I've read all those articles about how to insert a stupid equation, and now you showed up with exactly with what I needed
I agree completely! This is great! Thanks to this man!
Our procedure Drop the filter at 0.20 m 4 min of air bubble 1 min of purge High wash with 1100 m3h to 30 UTN Low wash with 375 m3h to 5 UTN (prevent high spike of turbidity in prefiltration) Prefiltration spike around 0.130 UTN and we want under .080 UTN takes about 20-30 min Turbidity while filtration usually .020 UTN all year around. In summer we use alum in washing to have no spike at all in prefiltration. All procedure takes around 1 h 30 min to back filtration. Filter is sand and actif carbon, 96 hours of filtration, around 100-150 m3 each filter. Do you have suggestion to improve our procedure?
Thanks a lot
Hi David Ladner. Just a quick question. I have a larrge pond, that has alklainity of 100ppm, pH of 8.5, and is filled with bacteria. I am planning to add calcium hypochlorite into it. I understand at high pH most of the form of the hypochlorite ion will be in the less favourable form, hypochlorite, and very little hypochlorous acid will be there. Now, since hypochlorous acid is much much more effiecent (80x) at kiling bacteria, i assume once added, its concentration will be depleted quite quick. Since it is in equilibrium with hypochlorite ion and H+, so wont the equilibrium respond by shifting left, thus increasing the concentration of the hypochlorous acid and thus reducing the concentration of the hypochlorite ion?
I never comment, but bless you, sir.
Excellent 👍
THANK YOU!
Update; the Hach field titrator dispenses 0.00125 mL/per digit. I figured the mL of titrant dispenses , along with the N of the titrant (1.6 N H2SO4), and your equation allowed me to confirm the accuracy of our titrations for alkalinity. Thanks for your video.
I use 1.6 N H2SO4 fo my alkalinity titrations in 100 ml. of sample and it reads directly mg/L CaCO3 . It is the Hach portable titrator. I will have to do the math and stoichiometry using your method to make sure this is correct (Hach says it is). The only problem is I need to find out how much titrant the Hach titrator per turn of it's odometer like display. (the titrant comes in a syringe type dispenser.
Very helpful. However once I thought of how much you sound like Paul Rudd in this video, I’ve been distracted and waiting for this to turn into a skit.
After how long after giving chlorine dose in 1 liter jar, residule chlorine is checked 
May I have a copy of your presentation
A big problem I have with this is that it requires you to manually number the equations, which is a very bad idea if you have many equations and you want to cross reference them. edit: works also with automatic numbering, my bad
This is just for the alignment. Automatic numbering can be done with this alignment technique; just need to add the number using fields or "captions" with only the number and not the label. Showing that wasn't the goal of this video, of course.
@@davidladner thank you very much for the response! Actually got it work with your method! :)
Thank you very much
