Determination of trace metal concentrations in raw and treated drinking water from lower usuma dam in federal capital territory (f.c.t) Abuja, Nigeria
Concentration of Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni and Zn were determined in the surface water of Usuma Dam and in the treated drinking water from the same source using Atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni and Zn in the surface raw water were 7.0, 17.0, 24.1, 14.0 and 43 µgl-1 respectively. While their concentration in the treated drinking water were 5.0, 10.0, 18.0, 9.0 and 25.3 µgl-1 respectively. The trend of the concentration is in the order of Zn > Pb> Cu> Ni> Cd in both the water samples. The result shows that the metal concentrations in the treated drinking water are lower than the metal concentration in the raw water. This may be attributed to water treatment processes and distribution.

CFD Simulation of a Candle Flame Propagation
The study focused on the modelling of a candle flame using CFD modelling technique. Governing equation which formed the basis of a CFD modelling using SolidWorks flow simulation was developed, and the simulation result was compared with an existing experimental result. Modelling results show that the heat flux is maximum at the wick base and minimum at a distance of 0.1m from the wick tip, where it maintains averagely a constant value of 55.23kW/m2. This implies that the heat flux generated by a typical candle is large enough to ignite secondary objects such as wood materials located even 100 mm above the wick of the candle as they are capable of auto-ignition at heat flux above 40kW/m2. However, nearby objects that are not directly over the candle base can also be ignited, but must be located much closer for ignition to occur.
