Dermatology Services for Pets
Disease of the skin commonly affects our pets. Here at Cobequid Animal Hospital, health issues related to your furry family member’s skin, hair and nails are some of the most common conditions that we treat. Fortunately, there is a wide array of treatments and medications at our disposal. If your pet has a dermatological problem that needs our attention, please don’t think twice about reaching out to our team. Simply call us at (902) 865-8110 to book a consultation.
What are the signs of skin problems in pets?
Since the skin covers the body from head to toe, symptoms can appear anywhere, including the ears! Although each pet, condition and disease severity will mean that symptoms vary, there are some common warning signs you should watch out for. They include relentless licking/scratching/biting of their own limbs/skin, open sores, bleeding, excess shedding and bald spots.
What are the causes of skin conditions in pets?
There are many causes of skin disease in dogs and cats ranging from parasitic infections (fleas, mites) to hormone imbalances and auto-immune diseases. Perhaps the most common cause of symptoms of skin disease is allergy. In humans, our “allergic organ” is most commonly our upper respiratory system. Allergies in humans often cause sneezing, runny eyes and nose, itchy throat. In our pets, the skin is commonly the “allergic organ”. Allergies often cause inflammation of the skin resulting in itch. Our pets scratch and lick which traumatizes the skin, and can lead to infection – which adds to the itch.
What kinds of treatments are available to address skin issues in pets?
The treatment your veterinarian will put your pet on depends entirely on your pet’s unique case. A single therapy or a combination of two or more may be recommended. The most common ways to treat skin conditions are prescription diets, ointments, pills, antibiotics, lasers and injections. Complicated cases can be referred to a board-certified veterinary dermatologist at the Atlantic Veterinary College.

The City of Kelowna has propsed new DCCs for Kelowna. DCCs are the Development Cost Charges that are charged to developers of new developments to cover the city's costs for sewer, water, etc. Most developers currently do not build secondary suite zonings into their subdivisions because the city would charge a DCC on the house AND a DCC on the secondary suite. With DCC charges ranging from $20,405 to $35,117 that is a big deal! Buildings that already have suites only have to pay $500 or the cost of a building permit to make the suite legal. So it makes you wonder why in the world would a developer ever opt to pay an extra $30,000 when people can do it after it's built for a fraction of the cost?
The City of Kelowna has proposed a new rule for DCCs where a developer would still have to pay two DCCs for houses with a secondary suite, but the second set of charges would have a reduced rate.
Most developers would love to be able to zone for secondary suites, but can't afford to do so if they want their prices to stay compeitive with other developments in the area.
The current set-up is going to lead to situations like what Whistler is currently dealing with: illegal suites.

Panelists, audience voice strong support for Palestinians.

In continuing programming at GA related to the conflict between Palestine and Israel, a large room nearly filled with UUs listened Friday afternoon to five speakers urge justice for Palestinians. The workshop, “Broad-based Coalitions for Palestine-Israel Solidarity,” included Rabbi Brant Rosen, co-founder and co-director of the Jewish Voice for Peace Rabbinical Council; Reema Jallaq, a Muslim and Palestinian-American activist; Mary Yoder, a nursing professor in Columbus, Ohio, who has lived in Palestine; and Farrell Brody, a UU member of Jewish Voice for Peace of Central Ohio. It was moderated by Dana Ashrawi, a member of the board of UUs for Justice in the Middle East.
The speakers, and most in the audience who spoke up, said they support the business resolution that delegates will vote on on Saturday, directing the Unitarian Universalist Association to apply a human rights filter—including rights for Palestinians—before investing in any companies. All of the panelists, especially Jallaq and Yoder, went into detail about the lives of Palestinians including their lack of basic human rights. “As a Jew, I’m sensitive to anti-Semitism. Criticizing Israel is rooted in my belief that Israel can change,” said Brody. Rosen said that the Boycott, Divest, Sanctions (BDS) movement is not blocking the two-state solution for Palestine and Israel, adding, “What’s making the two-state solution impossible is the settlement going on with impunity [on Palestinian land] for so long and no one holding them accountable.”

Arizona Rep. David Schweikert is looking to shake up federal tax policy for small business owners.
The Phoenix area lawmaker introduced a bill in June looking to increase the amount required for a business to pay before a 1099 form needs to be filled out from $600 to $5,000. Companies will typically issue a 1099 tax form to contractors who make over $600 so they can pay self-employment, or other small business tax, on their earnings.
Lawmakers investigating reports that the IRS destroyed tens of millions of taxpayer records say the federal tax agency is not cooperating with the investigation.
Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith, R-Mo., and Oversight Subcommittee Chairman David Schweikert, R-Ariz., sent a letter to IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel demanding he comply with the documentation request.
Maricopa County Attorney (MCA) Rachel Mitchell declared her victory Monday morning in the race to retain her title in the 2022 General Election.
“As a lifelong Arizonan who has dedicated my career to the safety of our neighborhoods and families, I am deeply honored this community has overwhelmingly shown its support and trust in my leadership of the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office,” Mitchell tweeted. “I will continue working with law enforcement and community leaders to hold criminals accountable, increase the use of treatment to rehabilitate where appropriate, deliver justice for victims, and put the safety of Maricopa County residents first.”
Arizona Republican Senate nominee Blake Masters has received endorsements from the state’s four Republican Representatives, and he said he looks forward to joining them in Washington.
“It’s an honor to be endorsed by bold, conservative leaders like Representatives Biggs, Lesko, Schweikert, and Gosar. All are highly respected and effective legislators, which is why Arizona voters continue to re-elect them to fight for their interests in Washington. I look forward to being their partner in the Senate,” Masters said.
On Sunday, the US Senate passed the Democrat-backed $740 billion “Inflation Reduction Act” by a 51 to 50 vote, with Vice President Kamala Harris casting the deciding vote. Many Arizona Republican lawmakers are among those claiming the bill will further impact inflation in a negative way while offering no real-time solution to struggling Americans.
New legislation is on its way to the U.S. Senate Thursday after concerns over the continued need for telehealth access.
The Advancing Telehealth Beyond COVID-19 Act(H.R. 4040) was introduced by co-chair Congressman David Schweikert, R-Arizona, and initially included further provisions than the ones provided.
Congressman David Schweikert, R-Arizona, was one of 116 Republicans in Congress to sign a letter uring President Joe Biden’s administration to address the country’s fentanyl problem.
The letter, sent to the administration on Feb. 10, urges the Biden administration to take action against the drug often made in China and enters the United States via the southern border. The letter urges the Biden administration to permanently classify fentanyl and related substances as Schedule 1 narcotics.
“Fentanyl is crossing our southern border at record levels, and with it has come tragedy for communities across the country,” Schweikert said in a press release. “In Arizona, this crisis has hit particularly hard, and the impact on our state has been devastating. To combat the fentanyl epidemic, we must give our law enforcement officers all the resources they need to take action and fight this harmful drug, and that starts by making fentanyl-related substances a permanent Schedule 1 classification.”
Republican members of Arizona’s congressional delegation have a demand for United States Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen: don’t take federal relief funding away from the state.
Arizona is scheduled to receive $4.2 billion from the federal government as a part of the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan; it has received nearly $1.2 billion of that money so far.
However, the United States Treasury Department has warned the state that it may forfeit $163 million if it doesn’t change its actions.
Arizona is one of the fastest growing states in the country, ranked No. 6 in 2021 by HomeSnacks. New data from the Arizona Office of Economic Opportunity reveals that the growth is taking place in red parts of Arizona, not blue strongholds like Tucson — which could mean Arizona is not trending blue.
“The growth is around Maricopa County,” Rep. David Schweikert (R-06-Ariz.) told The Arizona Sun Times. “Maricopa County, which leans Republican, already dominates the state. This will give it even more power.” Currently, 62% of the population lives there.
The Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission has mostly finalized its 10-year maps redrawing congressional and legislative districts in the state, and the results appear mixed for Republicans. While they appear to shift more districts in favor of Republicans, the advantage in some of those districts is so slim that in future years when the country’s mood shifts back against Republicans, several of those districts will be easier for the Democrats to capture, making it possible for the Democrats to take back the Arizona Legislature.
Rep. David Schweikert (R-06-Ariz.), whose district will become the most competitive after the redistricting, told The Arizona Sun Times, “The results are a mixed bag. While superficially it looks better for the GOP, in five of the districts there is such a small Republican advantage that we stand a good chance of losing all five of those seats to the Democrats in 2026 — and if we don’t take the White House back in 2024, we could lose them as soon as that year.”
Just two weeks after his House floor speech on financial fraud in Congress went viral, Arizona Rep. David Schweikert (R-Ariz.) delivered another epic speech, this time focusing on COVID-19 and President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better bill. Schweikert said the country is about at the point to declare the pandemic over, and he slammed Biden’s “social spending plan” for “economic violence” against the working poor and “laced with budget gimmicks.”
Schweikert explained how the combination of several factors now means the pandemic is about over. Pfizer’s new antiviral medication, which is about to be approved by the FDA, is 89% effective and will be available to millions by January. There are at-home COVID-19 tests and multiple vaccines. He will be putting forth legislation shortly to address this developing situation.
Rep. David Schweikert (R-06-AZ), known as the wonky numbers member of Congress, gave a speech on the House floor a few days ago about runaway spending in Congress that has gone viral with over 1.2 million views. It’s on Social Security and Medicare running out of money and how the U.S. is headed for a dystopian future if it’s not fixed. He addressed several myths and offered solutions.
He began saying he’s about to say some things most people don’t want to hear, “We call it math.” The biggest threat over the next couple decades facing the country is demographics. “Getting older isn’t Democrat or Republican, it’s going to happen to everyone.” But he says he’s been booed for telling people the truth. “You don’t raise money telling people the truth about what’s going on.” Referring to Congress, he said, “We live in a financial fantasy world in this place … there’s a fraud around here.”
Now that a 10-year ban on Congressional earmarks has ended, all seven Democrats in Arizona’s congressional delegation are requesting them. None of the four Republican members are. Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-AZ-07) wants to beautify light poles and several of the members want to expand public transit. Many of them are getting their requests approved as part of the $2.1 trillion infrastructure bill, which is expected to pass into law soon.
Rep. David Schweikert (R-AZ-06) told The Arizona Sun Times Friday that the earmarks aren’t necessary, since they are for the types of projects local and state governments generally cover.


The evolution of IoT and its everlasting effect on global manufacturing
The term IoT was first coined by British entrepreneur Kevin Ashton in 1999, while working at Auto i.d. Labs. Fast forward nearly 20 years and experts estimate that IoT will consist of nearly 50 billion objects by 2020. Staggering.
So what explains such outburst of IoT technologies?
Mainly this phenomena can be put down to the evolution of convergence of multiple technologies, ranging from the internet to wireless communication; from embedded systems to micro electromechanical systems (MEMS). As such, embedded systems, wireless sensor networks, control systems, automation (including home and building automation), and other all contribute to enabling the internet of things.
Industry 4.0 and the automation of production lines relies heavily on IoT
Network control and management of manufacturing equipment, assets and situation management, or manufacturing process control bring the IoT within the realm of industrial applications and smart manufacturing. The IoT intelligent systems use networking machinery, sensors and control systems to enable rapid manufacturing of new products, dynamic response to product demands, and real-time optimization of manufacturing production and supply chain networks.
Integrating the IoT into digital control systems allow to automate process controls, operator tools and service information systems in order to optimize plant safety and security. IoT can also contribute to asset management by enabling manufacturers to embrace predictive maintenance and statistical evaluation. Further, smart industrial management systems can be integrated with the Smart Grid as well, thus enabling, for instance, real-time energy optimization. Finally, networked sensors can contribute to a manufacturer's success in many other ways, such as automated controls, plant optimization, health and safety management, and new approaches to emasure results, just to name a few.
The term IIOT (industrial internet of things) is often encountered in the manufacturing industry referring to the industrial subset of the IoT. Many currently expect that the application of the IoT in the manufacturing world will generate so much business value, it will actually lead to the fourth industrial revolution, a.k.a. Industry 4.0.
In the near future, successful companies will be able to increase their revenue through internet of things by creating new business models and improve productivity, exploit analytics for innovation, and transform workforce. In Asia more and more factories are already automating their production lines and this trend has accelerated over the last few years due to rising labour costs. As such, the IIoT is expected to generate $12 trillion of global GDP by 2030.
The key for manufacturers to succesfully embrace IIOT will be their ability to understand machines and devices as well as the ability to react to problems in real time. IIOT lays the foundation for predictive maintenance, anomaly detection and machine learning. However, machine learning, anomaly detection and predictive maintenance are not easy and neither simple.
Plug-and-play should't be the only criteria when chosing the best technology for your industrial needs, neither the main one. There are 3 key features you should expect from the IoT solution you will select: it must guarantee data will be captured and observed for months; accurately understand machines protocols; and offer insights in real-time. Further, keep in mind that every machine is different. Nonethless, given the amount of data you need to make it 'big', the longer a machine is operating, the more data you will be able to collect and the more insights you'll get.
Manufacturing executives have just started to understand the real benefits of IIoT. While the initial investment into IIoT can seem daunting for any business owner, once the factory fully embraces IIoT, competitive advantages such as lower maintenance costs, lower labour costs, optimized streamline production, higher production control and increased knowledge base, completely outweigh these costs. Further, not only return on these investments is undeniable, embracing these new technologies allows manufacturers to act rather than react, and this is a priceless advantage in this age of hyper-competition.


Jacobs School Shines at Fluid Dynamics Conference
|An ultrasound image of blood flow in the left ventricle of a patient implanted with a biventricular pacemaker. The flow is organized forming a vortex that redirects blood from the inflow to the outflow tracts of the ventricle.
San Diego, Calif, Nov. 16 - Simulations that help doctors perform life-saving surgeries; a better way to model climate in urban areas; and optimized blood flow patterns for heart patients with pacemakers. Fluid dynamics researchers from the University of California, San Diego, will discuss their research on these topics—and many others—at the 65th Annual Meeting of the American Physical Society’s Division of Fluid Dynamics here in San Diego Nov. 18 to 20. With about 2,300 contributed presentations, the APS/DFD annual conference is the largest scientific meeting of researchers in fluid dynamics.
A number of UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering faculty and students will be in the spotlight during the conference. Alison Marsden, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering will give an invited talk about simulation-based planning of surgical interventions in pediatric cardiology. Several other professors at the Jacobs School of Engineering, including Acting Dean Juan C. Lasheras; Sutanu Sarkar, chair of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering; and Juan Carlos del Álamo, a professor in the department, will lead discussions on a wide range of topics. In addition, about 60 UC San Diego graduate students will present their work at the meeting. Abstracts are available for searching here: http://bit.ly/Sk5Tlp
“The volume and diversity of research projects at DFD from the Jacobs School of Engineering underscores both our strengths in fluid dynamics, as well as the importance of fluid dynamics to a number of vastly different fields from medicine and ocean science to animal behavior and renewable energy,” said Sarkar.
Lasheras and Sarkar are the co-chairs of the conference’s organizing committee.
“The APS meeting is the primary gathering place for researchers around the world who specialize in everything fluids-related, from medical devices, to aerospace applications, to the environment,” said Marsden, who also is a part of the medical devices group at the Jacobs School. “It’s important for us to get together as a community to share new ideas, and to give students an opportunity to present their research.”
Alison Marsden, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, wil give an invited talk at the APS DFD meeting.
Marsden will speak about the blood flow simulations she and colleagues have developed to help surgeons perform high-stakes cardiac surgeries for children. Her group uses patient image data, such as CT or MRI scans, to construct personalized computer models of the arteries and veins; simulate blood flow; and design surgeries that are customized to the patient.
Many of the simulation tools used in this research are similar to those originally developed for aircraft design. Marsden especially focuses on heart disease in children. Some of the designs developed in her lab have been used by pediatric heart surgeons at Stanford to treat children born with only one functioning heart ventricle. She and her students also have developed models of heart damage occurring in Kawasaki Disease in collaboration with physicians at the UC San Diego Medical Center and Rady Children's Hospital. Several of Marsden’s graduate students will present their research at the meeting, along with dozens of others from a wide range of disciplines here at the Jacobs School. KPBS recently profiled her team’s work here http://bit.ly/W5XWBS
Meanwhile, del Álamo, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, has used fluid mechanics to develop a new method of studying the complex, multidimensional blood flow patterns within the heart, with the ultimate goal of synchronizing blood flow with ventricle wall motion in heart patients with pacemakers. The study is focused on patients with biventricular pacemakers, which are designed to not only control heart rate, but also the timing of specific events in the heartbeat such as the length of time between the contraction of the atrium and the contraction of the ventricle, or the length of time between the contraction of the right ventricle and the left ventricle.
A simuation from a complex weather and building model graduate student Neda Yaghoobian developed.
Neda Yaghoobian, a graduate student in the mechanical and aerospace engineering department, will showcase a complex weather and building model she developed, called the Temperature of Urban Facets Indoor-Outdoor Building Energy Simulator (TUF-IOBES). The model fills an important gap by allowing the detailed simulation of the interaction between indoor and outdoor climate. The program links indoor and outdoor energy balance dynamically by taking into account real weather conditions, indoor heat sources, building and urban material properties, composition of the building envelope (such as windows and insulation), and waste heat from air conditioning. Yaghoobian developed her model in the research group of Jan Kleissl, a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering. Read more about her research here: http://bit.ly/SKluLw

New currency, new way of life. You will find in this post all of our feelings for each season, hoping that 2020 will be as busy as t...
Looking for our next place is not easy. We want it to be comfortable enough and cosy, with enough space but not too much (you don't want to spend too many hours cleaning). But at the same time, living in a tiny space means less people to invite. And we know all too well what we are talking about. We don't intend to plan many parties or whatsover every single weekend. However, it was important for us to find a welcoming place.
# A place to stay It had been 5 years since I’d been looking for a place to stay in Montréal. Wasn’t it a little bit dramatic when I had no idea when/IF I was going to leave ? Well MAYBE but that’s the story of my dreamer life !
Eventually, after reading a lot of stuff about moving to Montréal and the first steps to follow before leaving, we knew it was pointless to start looking for a place wi...

I see some of you coming at me like “but didn’t you tell us that you were going to leave for Canada in October last year?”. Well, change of plans ! Some stuff happened along the way, so we took the decision to leave later on.
After saying goodbye to our families and friends, here we are in Canada for only God knows how long :)

Why should I outsource my business's bookkeeping? Reasons why outsourcing your bookkeeping can help you to: Reclaim Your Time. Save Money. Gain Professional Expertise.
For most business owners, bookkeeping is not a core competency. Core competencies are those unique selling points, competitive advantages, and senior management skills that are responsible for a business's growth. For organizations that believe in outsourcing, any function not related to your business's core competency, which distracts employees and resources from making money, should be outsourced. Therefore, outsourcing accounting frees up management's time to focus on the aspects of the business that drives sales, service and, ultimately, profitability.
Reasons for Choosing to Outsource Bookkeeping Services
Bookkeeping is a complex, and time-consuming task. Not all employees are qualified and skilled enough to manage a business's bookkeeping needs. Outsourcing bookkeeping services allow a small business to focus on the core of the business, and to save money at the same time. Sometimes a small business will choose to contract out accounting to another company because it allows for consistent reconciliation and is helpful when it comes to fraud prevention.
In addition, hiring an outsourced bookkeeping service provides a small business with access to the expertise of accounting specialists and the accuracy that comes with years of experience in bookkeeping. Let us not understate the value of the expertise needed. Even seasoned professionals have difficulty sorting out the various startup expenses, some of which are tax deductible and some not. Wha change does an amateur have of getting it correct? Misclassification of expenditures may either trigger an audit or cause deductions to be left on the table; both of which are costly mistakes.
Benefits of Outsourcing Your Bookkeeping
Reduce your expenses. The amount of bookkeeping work needed needs to be done can fluctuate throughout the year. Your payroll and other types of business expenses can be reduced by outsourcing your accounting services compared to hiring an in-house bookkeeper who may not stay busy at all times.
Professional Expertise. Bookkeepers who have specific expertise in various aspects of your business can provide you with expert information and advice that will be useful when creating future plans for your business. Never underestimate the recommendations from a niche expert.
You can Avoid Conflicts of Interest. Whenever you and another business are involved in a partnership, it can be risky to entrust the accounting to one business. You could even end up in a difficult situation where you need to decide between what is best for your own company or what is best for the overall business. Hiring an outsourced bookkeeping service can help to save you from these types of situations.
Focus on the Big Overall Picture. When you hire a bookkeeping service, it will allow you to focus on those business tasks that actually help to grow your business instead of details such as bookkeeping. An outsourced bookkeeping service can handle all of your payroll and bookkeeping so you can focus on expanding your business and having time to do things you really enjoy.

Join Charis in welcoming Marian Meyers to discuss her new anthology, Neoliberalism and the Media. Marian will discuss how the book examines the multiple ways that popular media mainstream and reinforce neoliberal ideology, exposing how they promote neoliberalism’s underlying ideas, values, and beliefs so as to naturalize inequality, undercut democracy and contribute to the collapse of social notions of community and the common good. Covering a wide range of media and genres, and adopting a variety of qualitative textual methodologies and theoretical frameworks, the chapters examine diverse topics, from news coverage of the 2016 U.S. presidential election to the NBC show Superstore (an atypical instance in which a TV show, for one brief season, challenged the central tenets of neoliberalism) to “kitchen porn.” The book also takes an intersectional approach, as contributors explore how gender, race, class and other aspects of social identity are inextricably tied to each other within media representation. This is a Charis Circle From Margin to Center Literary Event. The suggested donation is $5, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.


Rosebery Mine is approximately 300 kilometres northwest of Hobart and 125 kilometres south of Burnie. The mine is 100% owned by MMG Limited and has been operating continually for over 85 years, with operations starting in 1936. Zinc, copper and lead concentrate, as well as gold doré are produced at Rosebery.
The 2/5 Dam TSF is one of the active tailings storage facilities at the Rosebery Mine. ATC Williams originally designed the facility as a sub-aqueous tailings discharge system.
To increase storage capacity, the sub-aqueous discharge system has been recently converted to the existing system to sub-aerial discharge. The potential for dust generation from the sub-aerial tailings beach was recognised as a risk to the health of the population living in the Rosebery township, especially during the drier months of the year. To mitigate the risk, a high-pressure pumping system and a series of high-pressure and high-flow sprinklers with Throw Distance of 85m were designed and installed around the perimeter crest of the 2/5 Dam TSF.
The work involved in the upgrade of this facility included the design and installation of
The network of water sprinklers was successfully commissioned in October 2021 and has been in operation since.
The system assists the mine in keeping the sub-aerial tailings beach wet during the dry months of the year to reduce the potential for dust generation.

I've got a MIM Fender P-bass. The thing still has its original strings on it. I dont know what size they are but I would like to change them. I have had some difficulty with fret buzz and keeping notes fretted without buzzing out (or should I just say, sloppy playing..) Anyway, would going down in string size help me out? And what do you think of Ernie Ball strings? I use them on my regular guitar but never on a bass.. Can someone recommend a good string size for me to go with, something fairly easy to play but still big enough to have a good sound? I play mainly blues, rock.. Thanks!

What is the "discharge coefficient" used in various places such as with the "Discharge Coefficient" and "Valve Characteristics Curve" Valve Type with a TCV node, or when using the Tank throttling inlet valve option?
The "Discharge coefficient" is also known as a "valve coefficient" or "Cv", which is defined as: Flow / (Pressure Drop) ^ 0.5. The Discharge Coefficient is used to model the relationship between flow and headloss through the valve being modeled (TCV, tank float valve, etc) The value to enter depends on the valve, which may be obtained from the manufacturer.
Note that there are many definitions of the term "discharge coefficient" (example). To learn more about the definition of the one used in WaterCAD, WaterGEMS and HAMMER, see the article "Definition of Discharge Coefficient" under the "See Also" section at the bottom of this article. The definition used in HAMMER, WaterCAD and WaterGEMS is the commonly used valve coefficient Cv, defined as:Q = Cv (pressuredrop)^0.5.Another way to express it and consider specific gravity is:Cv = Q (specific gravity / Pressuredrop)^0.5
A common definition for the valve coefficient Cv is "The volume (in US gallons) of water at 60°F that will flow per minute through a valve with a pressure drop of 1 psi". However, you may notice that the units for discharge coefficient in HAMMER, WaterCAD and WaterGEMS are gpm/psi^0.5, not gpm/psi. The reason why this definition can be true while the units can be gpm/psi^0.5 is because that statement is simply the definition, not the units. At a pressure drop of 1psi, this definition holds true, because the square root of 1 is 1. However, for pressure drops other than 1psi, the relationship is exponential, not linear (as seen in the units).For example, with a discharge coefficient of 3000gpm/psi^0.5 with water at a specific gravity of 1.0, you would expect a flow through the valve of 3000gpm at a pressure drop of 1.0 psi:Cv = 3000(1/1)^0.5Cv = 3000However with the same discharge coefficient, the flow at a 2.0 psi pressure drop would be 4242gpm:Q = (3000)(2)^0.5Q = (3000)(1.414)Q = 4242
If a discharge coefficient is not available, but you have the minor loss coefficient for the valve (K), then you can use the below equation:
Cv = ((39.693 * d^4) / K)^0.5
Cv = discharge coefficient (cfs/ftH20^0.5)d = diameter (ft)K = Headloss/Minor Loss coefficient
Cv = ((1.22 * D^4)/K)^0.5
Cv = discharge coefficient (m³/s/Kpa^0.50)d = diameter (m)K = Headloss/Minor Loss coefficient
Note: for SI units, WaterCAD, WaterGEMS and HAMMER accept a unit of m³/s/M H2O^0.50 - a unit conversion factor of 3.1316 can be used to multiply the end result in the kpa unit to achieve the unit required by the program.
If you know the discharge coefficient, you can compute the minor loss coefficient with a rearranged version of the equation:
K = 39.693 * D^4/Cv^2
Minor Loss Coefficients (K) for common types of valves can be found in places like engineering reference manuals and the included default Minor Loss Library (Components > Engineering Libraries)
Furthermore, if still unsure, you could perform a sensitivity analysis, trying a range of reasonable values and checking the response. If the results that matter to you are not significantly effected, then you may not need to worry about how accurate the discharge coefficient is.

We had just set for sale our New Micro Farm ONE countertop farm and I was showing it to our esteemed colleague Dr. Nasrine Abushakra whose family owns a chain of schools in the MENA (middle east north africa) corridor. We immediately had a kodak moment and quickly settled into an educational configuration for our Micro Farm ONE unit.
We are shipping out multiple units to be used at their Universal American School in Dubai. Our educational Micro Farm ONE unit includes the countertop unit which is now the teacher and demonstration station. The proper setup of the farm can be actively demonstrated to the class from this and ensuing discussions will then revert to the 10 student farms which are in the same black trays that are housed in the master unit. The master unit will allow students to check their progress visually with the teacher station as reference. The active student farms have clear humidity domes to help with germination of the seeds.
Pictured in our units is the germination tray at the far left which has a dark cover to allow proper germination. The middle tray is where the germinated plants first green up and the last tray on the far right is the grow to harvest tray. Each of these trays were spaced 4-5 days apart, so you would germinate first in the far left tray. Once the seeds sprout and grow to about 1" or so in height, the tray can be moved without the cover to the middle position where you would allow light to hit the new leaves and green up the plants. At this point you would start a new tray of seeds and put them in the far left with the cover over them. Finally in another 4 days it will be time to move the trays over again and germinate another tray. By using the same variety of seeds, the timing on the movement should be pretty uniform and simple to coordinate.
The new educational Micro Farms will be priced at $150 when introduced and will have the master teachers unit, 10 student Micro Farms and the growing media and seeds for 2 full crops to get started. We will also have available refill units so you can reuse your farms. Plasic grow trays and covers are made from recycled plastic bottles and growing media is sustainable coir based while our seeds are Non GMO and organic.
Additionally, we are working to integrate data collection through common social media applications and group discussion on web based discussion technologies. Final data analysis and presentation will also be introduced to allow the development at the class level to then integrate all of the other classes in the school with a look towards creating a cloud based platform for experiments. Should be great fun.
We are working to incorporate LED lighting on our new ONE+ units that should be coming in the next few weeks. Keep an eye for our posts to keep abreast of the expanding line of new Micro Farms.
