Discharge Rate given Detention Time in Sedimentation Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Discharge = Volume/Detention Time
Q = V_T/T_d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Discharge refers to the volume of fluid (usually water) that flows through a given cross-sectional area per unit of time.
Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume is the amount of space that a substance or object occupies or that is enclosed within a container.
Detention Time - (Measured in Second) - The Detention Time refers to the amount of time that a fluid (or any substance) spends within a particular component of a system.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume: 200 Cubic Meter --> 200 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Detention Time: 3 Minute --> 180 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q = V_T/T_d --> 200/180

Evaluating ... ...

Q = 1.11111111111111

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.11111111111111 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.11111111111111 ≈ 1.111111 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Discharge

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

What is Sedimentation ?

Sedimentation is the tendency for particles in suspension to settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come to rest against a barrier. This is due to their motion through the fluid in response to the forces acting on them.

How to Calculate Discharge Rate given Detention Time in Sedimentation Tank?

Discharge Rate given Detention Time in Sedimentation Tank calculator uses Discharge = Volume/Detention Time to calculate the Discharge, The Discharge Rate given Detention Time in Sedimentation Tank formula is defined as amount of sediment moved by stream in given time, measured by dry weight or by volume. Discharge is denoted by Q symbol.

How to calculate Discharge Rate given Detention Time in Sedimentation Tank using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Discharge Rate given Detention Time in Sedimentation Tank, enter Volume (V_T) & Detention Time (T_d) and hit the calculate button.
