116 Pinks and Blues System Volume

116 Pinks and Blues: System Volume Episode 116: Show Notes I am so grateful for the members of the Scaling UP! Nation! I have the best audience in all of podcasting. To great content every week every episode, I beg the Nation! to help me by asking questions they would like for me to answer. The Nation! has responded to that call once again!   Today, a friend of the show, Eric Russo, of episode 111, asks about the rules of thumb when it comes to determining volume in a closed-loop system. If you have ever heard me speak on this topic, you know I don't trust rules of thumb. But I do accept math.   WARNING: This episode contains MATH. Today's episode is about how I use math to determine how much volume is in a closed-loop system.  Below are the calculations I talk about on the show.  Estimating System Volume:  Πr2 x 7.48 x pipe'  Π = 3.14  R = half the pipe diameter and then square that number (must be in feet)  Pipe = 7.48 the conversion to get feet of pipe into gallons  Titration Drop Manipulation:  SDC / (NV / OV) = NDC  SDC= Standard or Original drop count in ppm  NDC = New drop count in ppm  NV = New volume  OV = Original volume  Volume Calculation:  (120,000 x NaNO2) / Δ x (conversion) = Gallons in the system  NaNO2 = the lbs. Of sodium nitrite added to the system  Δ = the change in NaNO2 in the system from your addition  Conversion = if you are using a nitrite test (not a sodium nitrite test), you will need to account for the fact you added sodium nitrite and only tested for nitrite.  The conversion will be 1.5  120,000 the conversion/axiom that 1 pound of anything in 1,000 gallons of water will yield 120 ppm  Nitrite test procedure courtesy of Aquaphoenix: https://www.aquaphoenixsci.com/resources/procedures/?fileid=7368  Test Species Conversion:  What we add / what we test = conversion factor  Key Points From This Episode: Rising Tide Mastermind [0:00:35]   Journaling [0:04:24]   Rules Of Thumb [0:08:38]   Calculating The System Volume [0:10:06]    Calculation For Pipe [0:12:32]   Compounded Addition [0:15:45]   Nitrite Test & Sodium Nitrite Test Procedure [0:23:11]   Get A Copy Of 5 Minutes Journal [0:32:55]   And A Lot More!   Tweetables:  "Setting goals is the first step into turning the invisible into the visible." @TonyRobbins  @traceblackmore #Masterminds #MastermindGroup #RisingTide #CWT #IWC #AWT #scalingupnation #scalinguppodcast #scalinguph2o #scalingupandbeyond #traceblackmore #systemvolume #PinksandBlues #TitrationDropManipulation #VolumeCalculation "If you can figure out your losses and what was getting in your way, you can quickly turn those into wins." @traceblackmore #Masterminds #MastermindGroup #RisingTide #CWT #IWC #AWT #scalingupnation #scalinguppodcast #scalinguph2o #scalingupandbeyond #traceblackmore #systemvolume #PinksandBlues #TitrationDropManipulation #VolumeCalculation Links Mentioned On This Episode: Rising Tide Mastermind 103 The One About What a Water Treater Fears Ep 22: The One with Tim Fulton 114 The One Where We Talk Masterminds  Robbins Research International, Inc.
