The sieve analysis
on each media yields the data shown below.
3.a) Determine the effective size and the
uniformity coefficient for each of the media
using a log-probability plot. (Instead of using a
log-probability plot, you can use a normal x-axis
by using one-sided z-score values,
3.b) The water and media have the
characteristics shown in the table below.
Calculate the headloss for a clean bed using the
Fair-Hatch equation for a stratified bed (details
on table below) if the filter has 50cm of sand
and 50cm of anthracite. Note that this is an
unusual filter design: normally the anthracite
layer might be about twice the depth of the
sand.
