CARACTERIZAÇÃO HIDRÁULICA DE GOTEJADORES AUTOCOMPENSANTES EXPOSTOS À APLICAÇÃO DINÂMICA DE CLORO LIVRE (Parte II)  Rubens Duarte Coelho1; Marconi Batista Teixeira1; Ralini Ferreira de Mélo1; Meiby Carneiro de Paula21Departamento de Engenharia Rural, Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz, Universidade de São Paulo, Piracicaba, SP,  [email protected] genético e reprodução animal, IAPAR – Estação Experimental da Faz. Modelo, Ponta Grossa, PR  1 RESUMO Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a caracterização hidráulica de 14 modelos de gotejadores autocompensantes, quanto ao efeito do cloro na redução de vazão, causada pela aplicação dinâmica de 100 mg L-1 de cloro livre, e o efeito linear de redução de vazão para dosagens e tempos de aplicação calculados a partir da dosagem padrão de 100 mg L-1 de cloro livre. Utilizou-se uma bancada de ensaios em estrutura metálica com 11,0 m x 4,0 m, instalada no Laboratório de Irrigação do DER– ESALQ/USP. Semanalmente, foi feita a coleta de água utilizando o método gravimétrico para todos os emissores presentes na linha gotejadora de cada um dos modelos estudados. Os modelos de gotejadores ensaiados apresentaram sensibilidade variável à aplicação de cloro livre. Ocorreu um decréscimo de 10 a 20% em média da vazão (L h-1) para a maior parte dos emissores, com exceção do modelo E que apresentou aproximadamente 90% de redução de vazão com 2688 h de funcionamento e redução drástica de vazão na ordem de 100% em virtude do bloqueio total do orifício para o emissor I. Embora o efeito da dosagem de cloro tenha sido linear, não se observaram alterações na vazão dos gotejadores com a aplicação de 10 mg L-1 de cloro livre. UNITERMOS: cloração, emissores autocompensantes, entupimento de emissores.  COELHO, R.

HYDRAULIC CHARACTERIZATION OF COMPENSATING EMITTERS EXPOSED TO FREE CHLORINE DYNAMIC APPLICATION (PART II)  2 ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to evaluate the hydraulic characterization of 14 compensating emitters regarding the effect of chlorine on the reduction of the flow rate and the linear effect of flow rate reduction at different times and dosages. The reduction of the flow rate was caused by the dynamic application of 100 mg L-1 of free chlorine. The experiment was carried out under laboratory conditions in a metal bench (11.0 m x 4,.0 m) at the University of São Paulo Brazil. Emitter flow was evaluated weekly using the gravimetric method. The studied emitter models presented varying sensitivity to the application of free chlorine. An average reduction of 10 to 20% in the flow rate (L h-1) for most   emitters was observed. The “E” model presented a reduction of 90% in the flow rate over 2,688 operation hours. The “I” model presented a sharp reduction of flow rate on the order of 100% (total clogging). Although the linear effect of chlorine dosage was present in all models, changes in the flow rate among the emitters during chlorine application of 10 mg L-1 were not observed. KEY WORDS: chlorination, compensating emitters, emitter clogging.

EVALUATION OF CHEMICAL DAMAGES ON SELF-COMPENSATING DRIPPER MEMBRANE, CAUSED BY DYNAMIC APPLICATION OF EXTREME DOSE OF FREE CHLORINE (PART I)  2 ABSTRACT In order to evaluate the chemical resistance of 14 compensating emitters to the dynamic application of 100 mg L-1 of free chlorine, an experiment was carried out under laboratory conditions at the University of São Paulo, Brazil. Emitter flow was weekly evaluated using the gravimetric method. Later on, it was calculated: average flow rate (qm), and percentage of emitters according to flow rate reduction. An average reduction from 10 to 20% of the flow rate (L h-1) for most of the emitters was observed, except for the model “E” that presented approximately 90% of flow rate reduction (13% of increase of volume of the membrane) in 2688 h of operation and drastic reduction of flow rate of 100% (total clogging) for emitter model “I” , due to the increase of 112% membrane volume after 2688 h of dynamic application of 100 mg L-1 of chlorine free with pH 5.5 to 6.0.KEY WORDS: chlorination, elastomer, emitter clogging.

AVALIAÇÃO DE DANOS QUÍMICOS EM MEMBRANAS DE COMPENSAÇÃO DE GOTEJADORES, CAUSADO PELA APLICAÇÃO ESTÁTICA DE ÁCIDO NÍTRICO  Marconi Batista Teixeira; Rubens Duarte Coelho; Ralini Ferreira de Melo; Áureo Santana de OliveiraDepartamento de Engenharia Rural, Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz, Universidade de São Paulo, Piracicaba, SP, [email protected]  1 RESUMO Este trabalho objetivou avaliar a susceptibilidade de membranas de compensação de pressão de quatorze modelos de gotejadores autocompensantes ao processo de dano químico, causado pela aplicação estática de ácido nítrico por ½ h com descanso do produto na linha por 1 semana. O experimento foi conduzido no Laboratório de Irrigação do DER–ESALQ/USP. O sistema de irrigação foi composto por tubogotejadores envolvidos por tubos de PVC e vedados em suas extremidades para permitir o contato da solução de ácido nítrico a pH 2,0 com todo o tubogotejador. Foi avaliada a vazão das linhas gotejadoras com o uso de um medidor magnético de vazão e o método gravimétrico tanto no início quanto no final do experimento com a retirada dos tubos de PVC que envolviam as linhas gotejadoras. Posteriormente, foram calculados: vazão média (qm), vazão relativa (Qr) e o percentual do total de gotejadores, por faixa de redução de vazão. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o inteiramente aleatorizado em esquema fatorial, sendo utilizados os testes “F” para análise de variância e Tuckey, a 5% de significância, para comparação de médias. Para todos os emissores avaliados, a aplicação estática de ácido nítrico com pH na faixa de2,0 a 3,0 por ½ h e descanso da solução na linha por 1 semana, não resultou em danos à membrana de compensação, pois a redução máxima observada para a vazão média e vazão relativa foi de 5% para o emissor H, 3% para os emissores D, I e M, 1% para os emissores B e J e para os demais modelos não ocorreu redução de vazão. UNITERMOS: entupimento, tempo de exposição, gotejamento.  TEIXEIRA , M.

EVALUATION OF DAMAGES IN DRIPPER COMPENSATION MEMBRANES UNDER DIFFERENT CONTACT PERIODS WITH NITRIC ACID  2 ABSTRACT This work aimed to evaluate the resistance of fourteen pressure compensation models, caused by the static application of nitric acid for ½ h with product rest inside the line for 1 week. The experiment was conducted in the Irrigation Laboratory of the University of São Paulo/Brazil. The irrigation system consisted of 14 drip lines. For treatments with ½ h application, drip lines were involved by PVC pipes closed in their extremities to allow the contact of the pH 2.0 nitric acid solution. Flow rate of the dripper lines were measured with the use of a magnetic flow rate meter in the beginning and in the end of the experiment. Gravimetric method was used to quantify individual flow rate of emitters in each line. Later on, average flow rate (qm), relative flow rate (Qr) and percentage of emitters according to flow rate reduction were calculated. The statistical analysis of the treatments was done by “F” tests for variance analysis and Tukey’s, at 5% of significance, for comparison of averages. For all emitters, the static application of pH 2.0 nitric acid for ½ h and the solution rest in the line for 1 week, did not result in damage to the membrane, because the maximum reduction observed for flow rate was 5% for emitter H; 3%  for emitters D, I and M; 1% for emitter B and J; and almost 0% for the other models. KEYWORDS: clogging, exposure time, drip irrigation.

The concept of communities of practice can be used in different contexts, included the educational context. The development of communities of practice where pre-service teachers work together, refine their practices and learn is a good training for these future teachers. Since communities of practice help teachers learn about teaching and improve their practices, this study aim to characterize the project PIBID of chemistry carried out at the University of São Paulo as a community of practice. On the first half of 2013 the PIBID project included 12 pre-service teachers who attended weekly meetings. These meetings consisted of theoretical training about the use of visual tools in teaching and other concepts about education and meetings to plan activities and classes about topics of chemistry to be applied in a public school at the city of São Paulo, Brazil. During these meetings was possible to notice that the pre-service teachers were engaged in a community of practice, demonstrating the three characteristics emphasized by Wenger (2008): mutual engagement, joint enterprise, and a shared repertoire. Thus the project PIBID of chemistry could be characterized as a community of practice. Furthermore, it was noticed that the community helps in the training of pre-service teachers, since it is providing support to them learn about teaching in practice and implement their knowledge. Key words: chemistry teaching, community of practice, pre-service teacher training.

The University of São Paulo, founded in 1934, started under the influence of important foreigners academicians in our campuses. The beginning of our university was the result of a fusion of the already existing colleges – Law School, School of Engineering, School of Pharmacy and Dentistry, College of Agriculture, Medical School, and School of Veterinary Medicine. In addition, in 1934, the School of Philosophy, Sciences and Letters was created being responsible for human sciences – Philosophy, History, Geography, Sociology – and hard sciences – Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry – that academically amalgamated the professional existing colleges. In the thirties, we benefited from the instabilities in Europe and important professors came to the University of São Paulo contributing remarkably to our successful trajectory.[...]
