I am designing a UV disinfection unit
think: http://www.wedeco.com.au/www.australianultraviolet.com.au/animation2.gif
I need to ensure an internal intensity/dose of 410 J/m.sq to all waters that pass though. (to comply with WHO guidelines)
I am aware of The Beer-Lambert Law but will have no data on absorption apart from turbidity in NTU's. Is there any conversion or link up?
The textbooks I have looked at have the photon output and as such energy within the tank but not intensity. (they are dealing with oxidation of chemicals and not inactivation of cells)
Any recommendations (ideas, online reading etc)
or am I just going to have to over design with a intensity sensor on the outer casing and power control system.
(humm going to need at least an ball park idea to do the over design)
