Here are some more information for Full Flow Hose:
Living on a narrowboat draws you closer to nature and the pleasures of a simple uncluttered life. Unfortunately the simple life also brings you closer to your toilet and its contents. It's one of the few unpleasant aspects of life on board but you soon get used to it.
There are two types of toilet on a narrowboat. The cassette toilet (often referred to as a "Porta Potti") and the "pump out" toilet.
The cassette toilet has a conventional toilet bowl where you sit or stand to deliver your waste and a removable container beneath the toilet which collects the waste. With this type of toilet you simply keep an eye on the level of the waste in the container and then remove it to empty the contents in a dedicated disposal point either by the side of the canal or in a marina or boatyard which offers waste disposal.
The pump out toilet is more like a conventional house toilet. The liquid and solid toilet waste is stored in a large (sealed) holding tank on your boat which requires emptying every two to three weeks depending on how much you use it.
Most marinas offer a pump out facility and will charge from about £10 for a self service pump out to £15 or more for a pump out by one of their staff.
The process is straightforward but must be adhered to. A hose attached to a powerful pump is attached to draw the waste out. A hose is also attached either to an external rinse point or directly into the toilet bowl if there is no external point. The rinse water is introduced to help swill out the holding tank but MUST NOT be turned on until the waste removal hose has started drawing out the waste. If your tank is full to start with and you turn on the rinse hose before the pumping out has started, you will flood your boat with waste. You have been warned!
There is a sight glass on the pump out head hose which allows you to check whether waste is still being drawn out of your boat. As the hose draws the waste out faster than the rinse water goes in, you will eventually see through the glass that the liquid has ceased flowing. At this point you turn off the flow on the waste hose but leave the rinse water to flow into the holding tank for a few minutes. If you rock your boat gently at this stage you will swill the rinse water around the holding tank. Turn the flow on the waste hose back on and check the sight glass. If the liquid is clear the tank is clean(ish) and you have finished. If the liquid is still dark, repeat the rinse process several times.
The whole process should take no longer than 10-20 minutes depending on the volume in the tank. You'll soon get used to it. Just remember to wash your hands when you've finished!

Volvo Radiator Hose: Coolant Supplier
One hot summer day, while cruising on your Volvo, you would notice fellow drivers staring at your car. You would pull over and ask. They tell you that your Volvo is dripping fluid, apparently coming from under the hood. You drive to the dealership and mechanics there tell you that the fluid is your antifreeze. The culprit? A Volvo Radiator Hoses full of breaks, nicks and holes. Your Volvo is equipped with top of the line parts and components. One of these is the radiator hose. The Volvo radiator hose is used to connect the engine and the water pump to the engine. Made from heavy-duty and flexible rubber compounds, your Volvo radiator hose should last a lifetime, as it is highly resistant to oil and heat. It goes from the radiator into either the top or bottom of your Volvo engine. The Volvo radiator hose controls the flow of coolant to the radiator. But time, heat and contaminants will eventually cause your radiator hose to fail. There are three types of hoses: the common hose, the molded or shaped hose and the accordion type hose. The common hose is straight and does not take much bending stress before it collapses. It is made form rubber with fabric reinforcement. Molded or shaped hoses are like common hoses, except that they will not collapse when bent, as they have been already molded with bends. The accordion hose puts up with most bending and they also absorb some of the vibration coming from the engine and radiator. Your Volvo Radiator Hoses should be inspected at least twice a year, in the spring and the fall. Also, hose clamp connections should also be inspected, so you could be sure that they are still secure and free from leaks. Your Volvo radiator hose is failing or is about to fail if it is cracking or shows signs of leaking. One way to tell is to simply squeeze the radiator hose. The hose should be pliable and should not show cracks when squeezed. That is the simplest way to tell if your Volvo radiator hose is failing, but there is a more extreme form of failure. It is called electrochemical degradation (ECD). ECD generates fine cracks along the radiator hose's walls. These fine cracks extend along the inside walls to the outsides, from one end to the other. Coolant and other fluids can seep through these cracks and cause leaks, attacking the hose reinforcement along the side. The condition can worsen to a pinhole leak or a burst hose. Coolant hoses should be checked at least every four years or more as needed. It is also a good idea to change a part of the hose that connects to the cooling system. To illustrate, when changing your radiator, it is wise to also change the radiator hoses.
If you decide to service your cooling system yourself, use extreme caution. Opening a hot radiator or coolant reservoir/overflow tank can cause severe burns. Be sure that both the engine and cooling system are cool before you begin any heating/cooling system maintenance or repairs. It is possible that your car may be equipped with an air bleed for the cooling system. Unless the cooling system is bled properly, air may stay trapped in the system and cause erratic temperatures. In extreme cases, engine or cooling system may be damaged. If you are unsure about any aspect of cooling system service, don't take chances. Have your Volvo looked at by a professional service technician.
You can be assured of a comfortable ride in your Volvo as long as your Volvo Radiator Hoses is in fine shape. They may not be as critical like other Volvo components like the drive train or engine, but the Volvo radiator hose makes your ride comfortable and pleasurable.

Math Cylindrical Pool Problem?
1) A cylindrical above ground pool has a height of 5 feet and a radius of x feet.
a) Write an equation for the volume to the pool as a function of the radius.
b) You use a hose to fill the pool with water. Water flows from the hose at a rate of 128 cubic feet per hour. After 8.8 hours, the pool is half full. Write an equation that you can use to find the radius of the pool.
c) What is the radius of the pool?
d) A second hose that outputs 104 cubic feet of water per hour is added after the pool is half full. Find the total number of hours it will take to fill 4/5 of the pool.
Height of the pool,h = 5 ft
Radius of the poll, R= x ft
a) Hence volume of pool as a function of radius(R) =πx²×h
=π x²×5=5πx²
b) Rate of flow of water from hose = 128 cubic feet per hour
Quantity of water in 8.8 hours = 128 ×8.8= 1126.4 cubic feet
Given tank is half full in 8.8 hours
Hence 1126.4 =(1/2)5πx²
c) Hence Radius, x = √ {(1126.4×2)÷(5π)}= 11.97 ft
d) Rate of flow of water from second hose = 104 cubic feet per hour
Total rate of water flow rom two hoses =128+104=232 cubic feet per hour
Total volume required to be filled = 4/5th
Volume already filled up = 1/2
Remaining volume required to be filled up = 4/5 −1/2 = 3/10
(3/10)×5πx²
Hence time reiured for the tank to be 4/5 full =(3/10)×5πx²/232
(3/10)×5π(11.97)²/232=2.91 hours
