Length of Tank given Detention Time Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length = (Detention Time*Discharge)/(Width*Depth)
L = (T_d*Q)/(w*d)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Length - (Measured in Meter) - Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.
Detention Time - (Measured in Second) - Detention Time is the length of time the water is retained in a vessel or basin.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the horizontal measurement or dimension of a structure, feature, or area.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Detention Time: 6.9 Second --> 6.9 Second No Conversion Required
Discharge: 3 Cubic Meter per Second --> 3 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Width: 2.29 Meter --> 2.29 Meter No Conversion Required
Depth: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L = (T_d*Q)/(w*d) --> (6.9*3)/(2.29*3)

Evaluating ... ...

L = 3.01310043668122

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.01310043668122 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.01310043668122 ≈ 3.0131 Meter <-- Length

To use this online calculator for Length of Tank given Detention Time, enter Detention Time (T_d), Discharge (Q), Width (w) & Depth (d) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Length of Tank given Detention Time calculation can be explained with given input values -> 73.36245 = (6.9*3)/(2.29*3).

FAQ

What is Length of Tank given Detention Time?

The Length of Tank given Detention Time formula is defined as the calculation of the physical length of a tank required to achieve a specific detention time for the water or wastewater flowing through it and is represented as L = (T_d*Q)/(w*d) or Length = (Detention Time*Discharge)/(Width*Depth). Detention Time is the length of time the water is retained in a vessel or basin, Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid, Width is the horizontal measurement or dimension of a structure, feature, or area & 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.

How to calculate Length of Tank given Detention Time?

The Length of Tank given Detention Time formula is defined as the calculation of the physical length of a tank required to achieve a specific detention time for the water or wastewater flowing through it is calculated using Length = (Detention Time*Discharge)/(Width*Depth). To calculate Length of Tank given Detention Time, you need Detention Time (T_d), Discharge (Q), Width (w) & Depth (d). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Detention Time, Discharge, Width & Depth 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 & Depth. We can use 2 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Length = (Flow Velocity*Depth)/Settling Velocity
Length = (Discharge/(Overflow Rate*Width))
