Documents

This is an overview of the project’s essential documents.

Working principle

In this one-pager we try to explain the functioning principle as vividly as possible. This content overlaps with the section How it works.

Project data sheet

The project data sheet summarizes the most important information about our project. It briefly describes the background and goal of SoWaDi and outlines the previous and current project phases.

Technical product data sheet

This datasheet summarizes important facts about the solar thermal water disinfection plant. You will find a short description of the functional principle, the necessary skills to build the device, requirements for water quality and environment, the plant’s performance and what is needed in addition.

Construction manual

The construction manual is the most extensive document. It describes what is needed for the construction. The plant’s buildup is described step-by-step with large illustrations and text.

User manual

The user manual decribes in detail how to operate the SoWaDi system correctly to ensure proper and safe functioning.

User manual (short)

The user manual describes briefly what’s important directly before, while, and after operating the plant. Especially if the construction was done by third parties this document is important for the actual user.

Scientific publication

The scientific publication takes a closer look on the functioning principle and explains the design and calculation criteria for dimensioning the plant. It is also available here: http://tuprints.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de/4460/
