Detention Period given Displacement Efficiency Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Detention Time = Flowing through Period/Displacement Efficiency
T_d = F_t/D^e
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Detention Time - (Measured in Second) - Detention Time is the average time that a parcel of water or wastewater remains in a tank or treatment facility.
Flowing through Period - (Measured in Second) - Flowing through Period is the time taken by the flow.
Displacement Efficiency - Displacement efficiency is the ratio of flowing period to detention period.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flowing through Period: 2 Minute --> 120 Second (Check conversion here)
Displacement Efficiency: 0.01 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_d = F_t/D^e --> 120/0.01

Evaluating ... ...

T_d = 12000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

12000 Second -->200 Minute (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

200 Minute <-- Detention Time

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
