Peaking Factor given Capacity of Chlorinator at Peak Flow Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Peaking Factor = (Chlorine Required/(Average Flow*8.34*Dosage))
f = (Cl₂/(Q_a*8.34*D))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Peaking Factor - Peaking Factor is the ratio of the maximum flow to the average daily flow in a water system.
Chlorine Required - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Chlorine Required means pounds of chlorine required per day.
Average Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Average Flow often refers to the average velocity of a fluid over a certain period of time or through a specific area.
Dosage - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Dosage used to obtain coliform reduction refers to the amount of disinfectant added to the wastewater to achieve the desired level of pathogen reduction or disinfection efficacy.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Chlorine Required: 10 Kilogram per Day --> 0.000115740740740741 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Average Flow: 2.5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 2.5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Dosage: 0.004626 Milligram per Liter --> 4.626E-06 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

f = (Cl₂/(Q_a*8.34*D)) --> (0.000115740740740741/(2.5*8.34*4.626E-06))

Evaluating ... ...

f = 1.19998155292359

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.19998155292359 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.19998155292359 ≈ 1.199982 <-- Peaking Factor

Residence Time given Number of Coliform Organisms at Any Particular Time

LaTeX Go Residence Time = ((Number of Coliform/Number of Coliform at Initial Time)^(1/3)-1)/(0.23*Chlorine Residual)

Total Chlorine Residual at Any Particular Time

LaTeX Go Chlorine Residual = ((Number of Coliform/Number of Coliform at Initial Time)^(1/3)-1)/(0.23*Residence Time)

Number of Coliform Organisms at any Initial Time

LaTeX Go Number of Coliform = (Number of Coliform at Initial Time/(1+0.23*Chlorine Residual*Residence Time)^(-3))

Number of Coliform Organisms at Any Particular Time

LaTeX Go Number of Coliform at Initial Time = Number of Coliform*(1+0.23*Chlorine Residual*Residence Time)^(-3)
