STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Settling Velocity for Turbulent Settling = (1.8*sqrt(Acceleration due to Gravity*(Specific Gravity of Sediment-1)*Diameter of Particle))
V_st = (1.8*sqrt(g*(G-1)*D_p))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Settling Velocity for Turbulent Settling - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity for Turbulent Settling is the rate at which a particle falls through a fluid under the influence of gravity in conditions where the fluid flow around the particle is turbulent.
Acceleration due to Gravity - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration due to Gravity is acceleration gained by an object because of gravitational force.
Specific Gravity of Sediment - Specific Gravity of Sediment is the ratio of the density of sediment particles to the density of water.
