Chosen Depth given Width of Grit Chamber Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Grit Chamber = Width of Grit Chamber/Selected Width Ratio
D = W/R
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of Grit Chamber - (Measured in Meter) - The Depth of Grit Chamber refers to the vertical distance from the water surface to the chamber bottom, designed to allow sedimentation of grit particles, typically measured in meters.
Width of Grit Chamber - (Measured in Meter) - The Width of Grit Chamber refers to the horizontal distance across the chamber perpendicular to the flow direction, facilitating the settling of grit particles.
Selected Width Ratio - The Selected Width Ratio refers to the chosen proportion of the width to another dimension, such as length or depth, in the design of treatment tanks or channels.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Width of Grit Chamber: 2.6 Meter --> 2.6 Meter No Conversion Required
Selected Width Ratio: 1.03 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D = W/R --> 2.6/1.03

Evaluating ... ...

D = 2.52427184466019

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.52427184466019 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.52427184466019 ≈ 2.524272 Meter <-- Depth of Grit Chamber

Width of Grit Chamber

Go Width of Grit Chamber = (Selected Width Ratio*Depth of Grit Chamber)

Volume of Each Grit Chamber

Go Volume of Grit Chamber = (Peak Flow Rate*Detention Time)

Peak Flow Rate given Volume of Each Grit Chamber

Go Peak Flow Rate = Volume of Grit Chamber/Detention Time

Detention Time given Volume of Each Grit Chamber

Go Detention Time = Volume of Grit Chamber/Peak Flow Rate

Chosen Depth given Width of Grit Chamber Formula

Depth of Grit Chamber = Width of Grit Chamber/Selected Width Ratio
D = W/R

What is Grit Chamber ?

Grit chambers are long narrow tanks that are designed to slow down the flow so that solids such as sand, coffee grounds, and eggshells will settle out of the water. Grit causes excessive wear and tear on pumps and other plant equipment.
