Falling Speed given Ratio of Removal with respect to Settling Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Falling Speed = Removal Ratio e*Settling Velocity
v^' = r*V_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Falling Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Falling Speed refers to the constant speed at which a particle falls through a fluid when the force of gravity is balanced by the drag force and buoyant force acting on the particle.
Removal Ratio e - The Removal ratio e refers to the total amount of sludge removed from the sedimentation tank.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Settling Velocity refers to the rate at which a particle suspended in a fluid (like water or air) falls under the influence of gravity until reaches a constant speed.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Removal Ratio e: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required
Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

v^' = r*V_s --> 0.5*1.5

Evaluating ... ...

v^' = 0.75

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.75 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.75 Meter per Second <-- Falling Speed

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

What is Removal Ratio ?

The removal ratio is defined as the ratio of the amount of sludge being discharged from the sedimentation tank in a given time period. Concentrated sludge leaving the bottom of the sedimentation tank, time for which the water is detained in the tank.

What is Sediment?

Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is subsequently transported by the action of wind, water, or ice or by the force of gravity acting on the particles.

How to Calculate Falling Speed given Ratio of Removal with respect to Settling Velocity?
