Flow Velocity given Length to Depth Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Flow Velocity = Settling Velocity*Length to Depth Ratio
V_f = v_s*LH
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Flow Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flow Velocity is the velocity of the flow of any fluid.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.
Length to Depth Ratio - Length to Depth Ratio is the ratio of length of the tank to depth of the sedimentation tank.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Length to Depth Ratio: 0.746 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_f = v_s*LH --> 1.5*0.746

Evaluating ... ...

V_f = 1.119

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.119 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.119 Meter per Second <-- Flow Velocity

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

< Flow Velocity in Sedimentation Tank Calculators

Flow Velocity of Water Entering Tank

Go Flow Velocity of Water = (Discharge/(Width*Depth of Tank))

Flow Velocity given Length of Tank

Go Flow Velocity = ((Settling Velocity*Length)/Depth)

Flow Velocity of Water Entering Tank given Cross-section Area of Tank

Go Flow Velocity of Water Entering Tank = Discharge/Cross-Sectional Area

Flow Velocity given Length to Depth Ratio

Go Flow Velocity = Settling Velocity*Length to Depth Ratio

Flow Velocity given Length to Depth Ratio Formula

Flow Velocity = Settling Velocity*Length to Depth Ratio
V_f = v_s*LH

What is Settling Velocity?

The settling velocity (also referred to as the “sedimentation velocity”) is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.

How to Calculate Flow Velocity given Length to Depth Ratio?
