What is the Hazen Williams equation?
There are different ways of writing the hazen -william friction loss equation depending on which system of units you are working with. If you want to calculate friction loss in feet then the equation is as follows:hL = ((L)/(((6.27*10^-4)*C*D^2.63)^1.85))*Q^1.85Where:hL = Headloss (ft)L = Length of pipe (ft)C = Hazen William coefficient for the material that the pipe is made out of (unitless)D = Diameter of the pipe you are working with (in.)Q = Flow rate you are working with (cubic feet per second (cfs))
How do you make a simple machine windmill?
1.1Take the propeller off the flower. The flower's propeller will be used to spin the axle. A propeller from a larger pinwheel flower is best.2Place the spools between the plastic sheets and glue them on. These small spools should go at the corner of the plastic. Use super glue to attach the spools, and let it dry. This will serve as the casing for the windmill generator.3Measure the metal rod and drill holes in the plastic. The metal rod will go through the hole. Make sure the holes are perfectly aligned on both sides. Place the rod through the holes in the plastic.4Place the magnets in the casing. They should have enough space to rotate freely around the axle that will spin the magnets. Attach the magnets together using spacers. If there is not enough space between the spacers to insert the axle, the magnets are useless to generate electric current.5Put the rod in the hole. Wrap the wire around the generator. Wrap the wire around the casing 225 to 300 times.6Attach the propeller to the axle. The propeller from the wind decoration should be large enough to catch the wind. Place the propeller on a metal rod, and apply superglue.7Remove insulation from the wires. Attach the leads to the end of the low voltage and amperage light bulb.8Place the generator in a breeze. See if the wind can provide enough power to light the bulb. (If there is not enough wind, electrical current can be generated by manually spinning the axle rapidly.Tips & WarningsBecause the wind is not always available, the propeller may not rotate the magnet quickly enough to light even a small electrical light bulb.
