Detention Time with respect to Discharge Rate Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Detention Time = Length*Width*Height of Crack/Discharge
T_d = L*w*h/Q
This formula uses 5 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.
Length - (Measured in Meter) - The Length refers to the measurement of the distance between two points.
Width - (Measured in Meter) - The Width of a sedimentation tank refers to the horizontal dimension across the tank, typically measured perpendicular to the flow of water in a rectangular tank.
Height of Crack - (Measured in Meter) - The Height of Crack refers to the size of a flaw or crack in a material that can lead to catastrophic failure under a given stress.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length: 5 Meter --> 5 Meter No Conversion Required
Width: 2.29 Meter --> 2.29 Meter No Conversion Required
Height of Crack: 12000 Millimeter --> 12 Meter (Check conversion here)
Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_d = L*w*h/Q --> 5*2.29*12/1.01

Evaluating ... ...

T_d = 136.039603960396

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

136.039603960396 Second -->2.26732673267327 Minute (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

2.26732673267327 ≈ 2.267327 Minute <-- Detention Time

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
