Specific Gravity of Sediment - Specific Gravity of Sediment is the ratio of sediment particle density to the density of water, indicating its heaviness.
Self Cleansing Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Self Cleansing Velocity refers to the minimum speed at which fluid must flow in a sewer to prevent sediment deposition and maintain a clear path.
Chezy's Constant - The Chezy's Constant refers to an empirical coefficient used to determine flow velocity in open channels, adjusting for roughness.
Diameter of Particle - (Measured in Meter) - The Diameter of Particle is the straight-line distance across its widest point, typically measured in micrometers or millimeters.
Dimensional Constant - Dimensional Constant indicates important characteristics of sediments present in the sewage. Its value usually varies from 0.04 (start of scouring of clean grit) to 0.08 (full removal of sticky grit).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Self Cleansing Velocity: 0.114 Meter per Second --> 0.114 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Chezy's Constant: 15 --> No Conversion Required
Diameter of Particle: 4.8 Millimeter --> 0.0048 Meter (Check conversion here)
Dimensional Constant: 0.04 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

G = ((v_s/C)^2/(d^'*k))+1 --> ((0.114/15)^2/(0.0048*0.04))+1

Evaluating ... ...

What is self cleansing velocity?

Self-cleansing velocity is the minimum flow velocity required in a sewer or drainage system to prevent sediment from settling and accumulating. This ensures that the system remains clear of blockages, reducing the need for maintenance. The self-cleansing velocity depends on factors such as pipe material, diameter, and the type of sediment present. Maintaining this velocity is crucial for the efficient operation and longevity of sewer systems, as it helps prevent clogs and backups.
