Discharge given Detention Time for Rectangular Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Discharge = ((Width*Length*Depth)/Detention Time)
Q = ((w*L*d)/Td)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the horizontal measurement or dimension of a structure, feature, or area.
Length - (Measured in Meter) - Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.
Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth is the vertical distance from the surface of a reference point, such as the ground or water surface, to a specific point or feature below.
Detention Time - (Measured in Second) - Detention Time is the length of time the water is retained in a vessel or basin.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Width: 2.29 Meter --> 2.29 Meter No Conversion Required
Length: 3.01 Meter --> 3.01 Meter No Conversion Required
Depth: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Detention Time: 6.9 Second --> 6.9 Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Q = ((w*L*d)/Td) --> ((2.29*3.01*3)/6.9)
Evaluating ... ...
Q = 2.99691304347826
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
2.99691304347826 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
2.99691304347826 2.996913 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Discharge
(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
