Minimum Rising Velocity given Surface Area of Skimming Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Minimum Rising Velocity = (0.00622*Rate of Flow)/Surface Area
V_r = (0.00622*q_flow)/SA
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Minimum Rising Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Minimum Rising Velocity is the minimum velocity at which a particle or droplet must rise through a fluid medium (such as water or air) to overcome opposing forces such as gravity and drag.
Rate of Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Rate of Flow is the rate at which a liquid or other substance flows through a particular channel, pipe, etc.
Surface Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Surface Area of a three-dimensional shape is the sum of all of the surface areas of each of the sides.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Rate of Flow: 2.315 Cubic Meter per Second --> 2.315 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Surface Area: 18 Square Meter --> 18 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_r = (0.00622*q_flow)/SA --> (0.00622*2.315)/18

Evaluating ... ...

V_r = 0.000799961111111111

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.000799961111111111 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.000799961111111111 ≈ 0.0008 Meter per Second <-- Minimum Rising Velocity

What is Velocity?

The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of an object's speed and direction of motion (e.g. 60 km/h to the north).

How to Calculate Minimum Rising Velocity given Surface Area of Skimming Tank?

Minimum Rising Velocity given Surface Area of Skimming Tank calculator uses Minimum Rising Velocity = (0.00622*Rate of Flow)/Surface Area to calculate the Minimum Rising Velocity, The Minimum Rising Velocity given Surface Area of Skimming Tank formula is defied as the minimum velocity at which particles or contaminants (such as oils and greases) rise to the surface of the water. It is a crucial parameter for the design and operation of skimming tanks, which are used to remove floatable materials from wastewater. Minimum Rising Velocity is denoted by V_r symbol.

How to calculate Minimum Rising Velocity given Surface Area of Skimming Tank using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Minimum Rising Velocity given Surface Area of Skimming Tank, enter Rate of Flow (q_flow) & Surface Area (SA) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Minimum Rising Velocity given Surface Area of Skimming Tank calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.008293 = (0.00622*2.315)/18.
