Length of Grit Chamber - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Grit Chamber refers to the horizontal distance from its inlet to outlet, designed to allow grit particles to settle, typically around 10 to 20 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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of Grit Chamber: 45 Cubic Meter --> 45 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Grit Chamber: 6.92 Meter --> 6.92 Meter No Conversion Required
Width of Grit Chamber: 2.6 Meter --> 2.6 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D = (V_T/(L*W)) --> (45/(6.92*2.6))

Evaluating ... ...

D = 2.50111160515785

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.50111160515785 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.50111160515785 ≈ 2.501112 Meter <-- Depth of Grit Chamber
