Question:
I am trying to figure out the equations that are needed in Quest 2, but there is no direction whatsoever of what these would be. I am confused as to what each of the columns is supposed to be equation wise. Is there anything you can tell me?
Answer:
Dr. Montalto reviewed the equations and logic in his lecture. His slides are on VBB in the Lecture Notes folder in Resources.
I was unable to locate Dr. Montalto's lecture slides. I looked through all the lectures that were posted and his was not there. How else could I find the lecture?

ReplyDeleteIts not in the resource folder, however I figured out most of it. What parts do you need help on, I know my logic is right for question 2 and most of question 3.
ReplyDeleteI am having trouble with the last 3 columns in question 2 and then all of question 3
ReplyDeleteI'll help you think about the first one and from there it should make a little more sense.
ReplyDeleteFor thinking about logic for storage:
You know that you're trying to find the stored water so take: Input+Stored.
So, When Input + Stored - Output > 0 what happens? (1)
True (1): When Input + Stored - Output is less than Cistern volume what happens? (2)
True (2): Then Input + Stored - Output
False (2): Then Cistern Volume
False (1): 0
Anyhow, this is how I thought about the logic, I hope this makes sense to you. Just think about it logically and you should be able to see where the water is supposed to be.
I am wondering, is it fine if almost every value in the storage at the end of day is 0?
ReplyDeleteThanks
of course it the notes arent in bb vista. when is anything ever fucking organized in this class?
ReplyDeleteMost days will be 0 yes, but remember the storage can NOT be more than the cistern value- that is overflow.
ReplyDeleteThanks I got all of that, but I am still having problems with the amount supplied by municipal supply
ReplyDeleteOkay, here we want to find the amount needed from the municipal supply. Lets find the difference between whats inputted and outputted.
ReplyDeleteso we know when:
Input+Supply > Output (1)
(1) True: When Output - (Input + Storage)< 0 (2)
(2) True: 0
(2) False: Output
(1) False: Output - (Input + Storage)
Hope this helps, anymore questions ill be back soon
