Height of Tank given Flow Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth = (Length*Settling Velocity)/Flow Velocity
d = (L*v_s)/V_f
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth is the vertical distance from the surface of a reference point, such as the ground or water surface, to a specific point or feature below.
Length - (Measured in Meter) - Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.
Flow Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flow Velocity is the velocity of the flow of any fluid.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length: 3.01 Meter --> 3.01 Meter No Conversion Required
Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Flow Velocity: 1.12 Meter per Second --> 1.12 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

d = (L*v_s)/V_f --> (3.01*1.5)/1.12

Evaluating ... ...

d = 4.03125

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.03125 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.03125 Meter <-- Depth

What is Flow Velocity?

The flow velocity in fluid dynamics, also macroscopic velocity in statistical mechanics, or drift velocity in electromagnetism, is a vector field used to mathematically describe the motion of a continuum. The length of the flow velocity vector is the flow speed and is a scalar.

How to Calculate Height of Tank given Flow Velocity?

Height of Tank given Flow Velocity calculator uses Depth = (Length*Settling Velocity)/Flow Velocity to calculate the Depth, The Height of Tank given Flow Velocity formula is defined as the value of the vertical distance from the bottom of the tank to the topmost point of the water level inside the tank, determined based on the flow velocity of the fluid entering or leaving the tank. Depth is denoted by d symbol.

How to calculate Height of Tank given Flow Velocity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Height of Tank given Flow Velocity, enter Length (L), Settling Velocity (v_s) & Flow Velocity (V_f) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Height of Tank given Flow Velocity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 4.03125 = (3.01*1.5)/1.12.

FAQ

What is Height of Tank given Flow Velocity?

The Height of Tank given Flow Velocity formula is defined as the value of the vertical distance from the bottom of the tank to the topmost point of the water level inside the tank, determined based on the flow velocity of the fluid entering or leaving the tank and is represented as d = (L*v_s)/V_f or Depth = (Length*Settling Velocity)/Flow Velocity. Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end, Settling Velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid & Flow Velocity is the velocity of the flow of any fluid.

How to calculate Height of Tank given Flow Velocity?

The Height of Tank given Flow Velocity formula is defined as the value of the vertical distance from the bottom of the tank to the topmost point of the water level inside the tank, determined based on the flow velocity of the fluid entering or leaving the tank is calculated using Depth = (Length*Settling Velocity)/Flow Velocity. To calculate Height of Tank given Flow Velocity, you need Length (L), Settling Velocity (v_s) & Flow Velocity (V_f). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Length, Settling Velocity & Flow Velocity and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Depth?

In this formula, Depth uses Length, Settling Velocity & Flow Velocity. We can use 2 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Depth = (Discharge in Tank/(Flow Velocity*Width))
Depth = (Detention Time*Discharge)/(Length*Width)
