Structural Design
Current Footprint – 60’x80’
Notes – Footprint/Foundation
• Cut and fill enough to fill hole without extra soil left over
• Strip footing• Soil – mostly clay• Minimum 5’ from boundaries• Allow space for latrine
Current Floor Plan
Notes - Plan
• Use spaces on exterior – optimize sunlight• Kitchen on right – minimize distance to latrine• Sink near shower – minimize piping• Delivery near kitchen for access to hot water (as
opposed to being connected to Recovery)• 8’ hallways for easy maneuverability (i.e. moving
beds, etc.)• 2 entrances – main (to waiting area) and kitchen
(to load supplies/easy access to latrine)
Other Notes
• Roof – corrugated tin and corrugated translucent material (optimize sunlight)
• 10’ walls• Materials: CMU (8”x8”x16”), rebar, poured
concrete base, wood beams for roof support system
• Sketch-up Model
Next steps
• Determine optimal base depth for cut and fill• Design roof structure• Determine loads• Find North for solar panel/roof design• Convert to metric• Door/Window Design

• Solar panels are tested at 1000 W/m at 25 ⁰ C • The solar panel should be able provide the required wattage at both the summer and winter
hours• For temperature ranges between 25⁰ and 40⁰ C, the power output is close to linear
http://www.reuk.co.uk/Effect-of-Temperature-on-Solar-Panels.htm]• 75 watt panels = 75/1000 = 0.075 % efficiency• At lowest solar isolation of 4.13 kWh/m2/day produces 4.13 * 0.075 = 310 watts per panel• Total number of panels needed = Total power consumption/watts per panel
= 1760/310 = 5.6 panels ≈ 6 panels minimumTo compensate for cloudy days and system losses, 7-8 solar panels may be necessary
Monthly Averaged Insolation Incident On A Horizontal Surface (kWh/m2/day)
Sizing the battery system
• Nautilius Deep cycle are rated at 115 amp hrs and 12 volts for a total of 1380 watt hrs
• Although deep cycles can be discharged to 80 %, they have a much larger cycles if discharged at lower percentages
• This is a graph comparing cycles of discharge vs. discharge %
• We want both a long lifespan for our system and also the power the solar fridge for several days if there are consecutive cloudy or rainy days/solar panel malfunctions
• Aiming for optimally 20 % discharge rate, each battery would be able to provide 0.2* 1380 = 276 Watt hours
• Number of batteries needed = Total wattage/ Watt hour per battery = 1760 /276 = 6.3 ≈ 7 batteries
• After 2 days, total watt hours available = (0.8)2 * 7 * 1380 = 6048 watt hrsThis can still provide 16 days of the vaccine fridge running by itself
• At 20% discharge rate, the batteries will last for 2500 cycles. • Assuming 1 cycle per day for each battery = 2500/365 = 6.8 years before
replacement. This will probably be 6 years, due to some over discharging.
Sizing the Charge controller• The charge controller prevents the batteries from
overcharging/discharging, maintains the rates of charging/discharging, keeps power from batteries from going back into solar panels, and also converts the variable voltage from the solar panels into a steady voltage
• For 75 watt solar panel, should be at 75 watts/12 volts = 6 amps, however this current can spike up to 8 amps. For our solar system, 7 * 8 amps = 56 amps. Thus we could use two charger controllers, a 40 amp and a 30 amp charge controller.
Sizing the Inverter• A 600 watt system will have enough capacity to power 5 amp tools, fans,
and also our needs for a water filter, and laptops. • The water filter = 30 watts • 3 laptops total = 24 watts • The 600 watt system will exceed our daily needs but will allow greater
expansion of AC appliances.
Choosing the laptop • Netbooks are very power efficient• The Dell mini 9 makes it easy to upgrade RAM and hard drive• The solid-state hard drive is less likely to fail• Linux drive Operating System can be re-installed and rebooted from a USB
drive, and thus making system recovery very easy
Choosing the Vaccine Fridge
• Sunfrost energy specifications• Energy Consumption (12 volt) making 2.2 kg ice/day
.38 kWh/day @ 32° C (90° F)
Running Current: 4.5 amps for 12 volt system, 2.3 amps for 24 volt system Starting Current: 15 amps for 12 volt system, 7.5 amps for 24 volt system
Room Temperature 21° C (70° F) 32° C (90° F) 43° C (110° F)
Refrigerator Temperature 3° C (38° F) 3° C (38° F) 3° C (38° F)
Freezer Temperature -11° C (12° F) -9° C (15° F) -5° C (23° F)
• The Sunfrost Fridge:– has been approved by the World Health
Organization– is very power efficient– can maintain a fridge temperature of 3° C at a
large range of temperatures

Soil Data
Infiltration Rates
Calculations
• Assumptions: – pan required 2 L/flush– latrine will serve an average of 15 people/year– 2 L/flush is used for anal cleansing– soil infiltration rate is 30 L/(m2*day) – corresponds to “sandy loam,
loams” soil type– 1 urination/(person*day)– deep water table– 2 flushes/(person*day)– bricks are 4 in by 4 in by 8 in (101.6 mm by 101.6 mm by 203.2 mm)
Calculations
• q = wastewater flow per person• q = Nf ( vw + vc ) + vf + ( a Nu vw ) + vu
• q = (2 flush/day)(2 L/flush + 2 L/flush) + (0.3 L/day + 1.2 L/day) + [(1)(1 flush/day)(2 L/flush)]
• q = 11.5 L/day
• Q = total wastewater flow• Q = p * q• Q = (15 people)(11.5 L/day) = 172.5 L/day
Calculations
• vs = solids storage volume
• vs = (25 L/(person*year))(10-3 m3/L)(2 year)(15 people) = 0.75 m3
• Infiltration area required = Q / soil infiltration rate = 172.5 L/day / 30 L/(m2*day) = 5.75 m2
• 0.75 m3 = (π)(d2/4)(h), where d is the internal pit diameter and h is the effective depth
• h = [(4)(0.75)] / [(π)(d2)]
Calculations
• Outside pit diameter = D = d + 2(block width) = d + 2(0.1016) = d + 0.2032
• Infiltration area = Ai = (D)(h)(π) = (d + 0.2032)*[(4*0.75)/(d2*π)]*(π) = (3d + 0.6096)/d2
• Setting Ai equal to 5.75 m2, d = 0.67 m.
• Therefore, effective depth (h) = 2.127 m
• Adding the 0.5 m free space necessary at the top of the cylinder, the actual height (H) ≈ 2.6 m
