Settling Velocity of Particular Sized Particle given Plan Area Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Settling Velocity = (70*Discharge)/(100*Area)
v_s = (70*Q)/(100*A)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of sedimentation tank often referred to as the surface area or settling area, is a crucial parameter in the design and operation of the tank.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge: 3 Cubic Meter per Second --> 3 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Area: 1.4 Square Meter --> 1.4 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

v_s = (70*Q)/(100*A) --> (70*3)/(100*1.4)

Evaluating ... ...

v_s = 1.5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.5 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.5 Meter per Second <-- Settling Velocity

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
