Peak Flow Rate given Volume of Each Grit Chamber Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Peak Flow Rate = Volume of Grit Chamber/Detention Time
Q_p = V_T/T_d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Peak Flow Rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Peak Flow Rate refers to the highest flow rate of wastewater or fluid entering a treatment system during a specific period, typically measured in (m³/s) or (gpm).
Volume of Grit Chamber - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - The Volume of Grit Chamber refers to the total capacity of the chamber to hold wastewater and allow grit to settle, typically measured in cubic meters (m³).
Detention Time - (Measured in Second) - The Detention Time refers to the duration that wastewater or another fluid remains in a treatment process or tank, typically measured in hours, to allow for adequate treatment or settling.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of Grit Chamber: 45 Cubic Meter --> 45 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Detention Time: 3 Minute --> 180 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_p = V_T/T_d --> 45/180

Evaluating ... ...

Q_p = 0.25

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.25 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.25 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Peak Flow Rate

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
