Volume of Each Grit Chamber Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Variables Used

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).
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).
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

Peak Flow Rate: 0.25 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.25 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Detention Time: 3 Minute --> 180 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_T = (Q_p*T_d) --> (0.25*180)

Evaluating ... ...

V_T = 45

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

45 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

45 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Grit Chamber

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Detention Time ?

Detention time is the length of time water is retained in a vessel or basin or the period from the time the water enters a settling basin until it flows out the other end. When calculating unit process detention times, we are calculating the length of time it takes the water to flow through that unit process.
