Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length = (Detention Time*Discharge)/(Width*Height of Crack)
L = (T_d*Q)/(w*h)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Length - (Measured in Meter) - The Length refers to the measurement of the distance between two points.
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.
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.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Detention Time: 3 Minute --> 180 Second (Check conversion here)
Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Width: 2.29 Meter --> 2.29 Meter No Conversion Required
Height of Crack: 12000 Millimeter --> 12 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L = (T_d*Q)/(w*h) --> (180*1.01)/(2.29*12)

Evaluating ... ...

L = 6.61572052401747

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.61572052401747 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

6.61572052401747 ≈ 6.615721 Meter <-- Length

To use this online calculator for Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time, enter Detention Time (T_d), Discharge (Q), Width (w) & Height of Crack (h) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time calculation can be explained with given input values -> 6.615721 = (180*1.01)/(2.29*12).

FAQ

What is Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time?

The Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time formula is defined as the horizontal distance along which water flows and particles settle before the clarified water exits the tank and is represented as L = (T_d*Q)/(w*h) or Length = (Detention Time*Discharge)/(Width*Height of Crack). The Detention Time refers to the amount of time that a fluid (or any substance) spends within a particular component of a system, The Discharge refers to the volume of fluid (usually water) that flows through a given cross-sectional area per unit of time, 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 & 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.

How to calculate Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time?

The Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time formula is defined as the horizontal distance along which water flows and particles settle before the clarified water exits the tank is calculated using Length = (Detention Time*Discharge)/(Width*Height of Crack). To calculate Length of Settling Zone given Detention Time, you need Detention Time (T_d), Discharge (Q), Width (w) & Height of Crack (h). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Detention Time, Discharge, Width & Height of Crack 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 Length?

In this formula, Length uses Detention Time, Discharge, Width & Height of Crack. We can use 3 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Length = Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Width)
Length = (Outer Height*Discharge)/(Width*Height of Crack*Falling Speed)
Length = Cross-Sectional Area/Width
