This document discusses hydrant flushing programs. It explains that flushing programs help maintain water quality by removing sediment, restoring chlorine residuals, and preventing issues like nitrification. The document outlines a four-step approach to flushing programs: determining if flushing is needed, planning the program, collecting data during flushing, and evaluating the results. It also describes different flushing methods like conventional, unidirectional, and continuous blow-off flushing and considerations for implementing an effective flushing program.
OMAE2013-10454: Experimental Study on Flow Around Circular Cylinders with Low...Rodolfo Gonçalves
Experiments were carried out in a recirculating water channel regarding the flow around stationary circular cylinders with low aspect ratio piercing the water free surface. Eight different aspect ratios were tested, namely L/D= 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0; this range corresponds to aspect ratio related to circular offshore systems, such as spar and monocolumn platforms. Force was measured using a six degree-of-freedom load cell and Strouhal number is inferred through the transverse force fluctuation frequency. The range of Reynolds number covers 10,000 < Re < 50,000. PIV measurements were performed in some aspect ratio cases, namely 0.3, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 for Reynolds number equal to 43,000. The results showed a decrease in drag force coefficients with decreasing aspect ratio, as well as a decrease in Strouhal number with decreasing aspect ratio. The PIV showed the existence of an arch-type vortex originated in the cylinder free end.

ベトナムの展示会運営会社C.I.S Vietnam Advertising & Exhibition JSCが、ベトナム商工省傘下のIndustry Policy & Strategy Institute(工業政策戦略研究院)及びVietnam Society of Automotive Engineers(ベトナム自動車技術会)と共催して、第13回目の自動車、オートバイ、部品、アクセサリー、整備サービス、修理器具に関する展示会International Exhibition on Automobile and Supporting Industries 2016(Vietnam Auto Expo 2016、ベトナム・オート・エキスポ2016)を、2016年6月8日(水)~6月11日(土)、Hanoi(ハノイ)のHanoi International Center for Exhibition (ICE、ハノイ国際展示センター)で開催します。
2015年6月17日(水)~20日(土)の4日間開催されたVietnam Auto Expo 2015には、会場Vietnam Exhibition and Fair Centre(ベトナム・エキシビション・アンド・フェア・センター)9,000平方メートルのスペースに142社・団体以上が出展し、来場者数は72,000人でした。出展者の13%が乗用車、40%がバス・トラック・特殊車両、22%がオートバイ・スクーター、17%がパーツ・アクセサリーなど関連商品、8%が整備やメンテンナスなどサービスを展示しました。
Vietnam Automobile Manufactures Association(VAMA、ベトナム自動車工業会)によると、2014年の新車販売台数は前年比38.2%増の133,588台、2015年10月までは、前年比52.7.%増の185,811台と好調です。
一方、国内の完成車生産や自動車部品の現地生産の情勢は、2018年以降、大きく変貌しそうです。ベトナムは自動車産業保護のため、ASEAN(東南アジア諸国連合)域内からの完成車輸入の関税は60%ですが、ASEAN物品貿易協定に基づき、この高い輸入関税は2018年までに撤廃される見込みです。この結果、タイやインドネシアからの輸入車が増加し、国内の完成車生産は減少するとの観測があります。
本展示会の御出展は、ベトナム、特にハノイの自動車・オートバイ・関連商品及びアフターマーケットにご興味のある企業様にとって、貴社製品やサービスに関心のある企業経営者や輸入代理店と出会い、ネットワークを拡げる良い機会となります。

It will cover various designs, commercial applications (chilled and heated water lines, HVAC systems and low pressure steam lines), installation and maintenance procedures and the benefits of using pre-insulated pipe supports (vs. doing insulation in the field). This presentation will be delivered by Albert Dizon, General Manager of Pipe Shields, who has been working with pre-insulated pipe supports for 30+ years. Join us and receive some of his experience and wisdom!
This Webinar will focus on installation and maintenance guidelines and offer valuable tips on inspecting a wide variety of pipe supports and expansion joints in your piping system. We will cover various pipe support applications and point out signs that indicate if a particular support needs replaced or adjusted. Obtain the knowledge you need to avoid the possibility of a potentially catastrophic situation. View examples of real world problems and see how we were able to solve them with timely and cost effective solutions.
Integrity testing is a critical operation, especially for sterilizing grade filters used in biopharmaceutical processing. When performed correctly, an integrity test is a fast, definitive, non-destructive way to assure filter retention performance. Fortunately, there are few ways a non-integral filter will pass the integrity test, eliminating the possibility a non-retentive filter is used undetected. Unfortunately, there are a lot of ways an integral filter can fail the integrity test, resulting in retests, lost time, productivity and potentially lost product.
In this webinar you will:
- Gain confidence in your integrity testing results
- Provide justification for retests
- Understand specific challenges and eliminate them to assure the integrity test can be performed correctly the first time

Green liquor is the dissolved smelt of sodium carbonate, sodium sulfide and other compounds from the recovery boiler in the Kraft Process in pulp and paper production. The liquor's eponymous green color arises from the presence of colloidal iron sulfide. This document discusses the application of process refractometers for measuring green liquor density.
Because of the extent of AMD impacts in Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth has become, by necessity, a leader in the development of passive treatment technology. People from around the world travel to Pennsylvania to learn about the successes we have collectively achieved, including the installation of over 300 passive treatment systems. In recent years, the capabilities of passive systems to treat highly acidic mine discharges with high concentrations of dissolved metals has been questioned. It is important to remember that with any treatment system, whether passive or active, proper design, suitable land characteristics, quality construction, proper maintenance and sufficient funding, are needed to provide a long-term, cost-effective approach for watershed restoration. This presentation will provide mini case studies that demonstrate, by example, that passive systems can and are effectively treating acidic, high-metal, discharges in Pennsylvania.

Lift Station Buyer's Guide for Municipal Utilities - v.13Brian Gongol
A guide for decision-makers looking at the complex choices involved in designing a lift station. There are far more forks in the road than conventional thinking would have you believe.
Small wastewater plants and lagoon systems needing to meet tougher effluent-quality standards may find themselves in need of additional aeration that their existing facilities are poorly-equipped to supply. A technological solution that takes up almost no space, requires little to no earth work, and can be easily operated and maintained is available.
The nexus between energy policy and water policy hasn't gotten the amount of attention it deserves, and that's something the water sector needs to change
How to Communicate with Boards and CouncilsBrian Gongol
It's not enough to know your stuff (though you should), and it's not enough to be nice (though that's a good practice, too). Community and civic leaders on city councils and governing boards need utility leaders to be good communicators. Here's what they want from you, in their own words.
Getting Your CLAWS into Pump MaintenanceBrian Gongol
Maintenance takes on all kinds of styles and approaches, but anything we can do to make the process more intuitive and easy to hack, the better. In this presentation, we describe a simple mnemonic device -- CLAWS -- to help pump operators ensure they're checking the biggest culprits for trouble before they reach a state of failure.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
