Detention Time given Displacement Efficiency of Sedimentation Tank 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) - The Detention Time refers to the amount of time that a fluid (or any substance) spends within a particular component of a system.
Flowing through Period - (Measured in Second) - The Flowing through Period refers to the amount of time it takes for fluid to travel from the inlet to the outlet of a system. It depends on the flow rate and the volume or length of the system.
Displacement Efficiency - The Displacement efficiency refers to the ratio of flowing period to detention period.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flowing through Period: 2 Second --> 2 Second No Conversion Required
Displacement Efficiency: 0.01 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_d = F_t/D^e --> 2/0.01

Evaluating ... ...

T_d = 200

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

200 Second -->3.33333333333333 Minute (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

3.33333333333333 ≈ 3.333333 Minute <-- Detention Time

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
