Width of Tank given Detention Time Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Width = Detention Time/((Length*Depth)/Discharge)
w = T_d/((L*d)/Q)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the horizontal measurement or dimension of a structure, feature, or area.
Detention Time - (Measured in Second) - Detention Time is the length of time the water is retained in a vessel or basin.
Length - (Measured in Meter) - Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.
Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth is the vertical distance from the surface of a reference point, such as the ground or water surface, to a specific point or feature below.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Detention Time: 6.9 Second --> 6.9 Second No Conversion Required
Length: 3.01 Meter --> 3.01 Meter No Conversion Required
Depth: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Discharge: 3 Cubic Meter per Second --> 3 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

w = T_d/((L*d)/Q) --> 6.9/((3.01*3)/3)

Evaluating ... ...

w = 2.29235880398671

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.29235880398671 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.29235880398671 ≈ 2.292359 Meter <-- Width

< Width of Tank Calculators

Width of Tank given Height to Length Ratio

Go Width = (Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Depth))*(Ratio of Height to Length)

Width of Tank given Settling Velocity

Go Width = (Discharge entering Basin given Settling Velocity/(Settling Velocity*Length))

Width of Tank given Flow Velocity

Go Width = (Discharge entering Basin given Flow Velocity/(Flow Velocity*Depth))

Width of Tank given Overflow Rate

Go Width = (Discharge/(Overflow Rate*Length))

Width of Tank given Detention Time Formula

Width = Detention Time/((Length*Depth)/Discharge)
w = T_d/((L*d)/Q)

What is Detention Time?

The theoretical (calculated) time required for a given amount of water or wastewater to pass through a tank at a given rate of flow.

How to Calculate Width of Tank given Detention Time?

Width of Tank given Detention Time calculator uses Width = Detention Time/((Length*Depth)/Discharge) to calculate the Width, The Width of Tank given Detention Time formula is defined as the value of the horizontal dimension of a tank or reservoir, considering detention time. Width is denoted by w symbol.

To use this online calculator for Width of Tank given Detention Time, enter Detention Time (T_d), Length (L), Depth (d) & Discharge (Q) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Width of Tank given Detention Time calculation can be explained with given input values -> 55.81395 = 6.9/((3.01*3)/3).

FAQ

What is Width of Tank given Detention Time?

The Width of Tank given Detention Time formula is defined as the value of the horizontal dimension of a tank or reservoir, considering detention time and is represented as w = T_d/((L*d)/Q) or Width = Detention Time/((Length*Depth)/Discharge). Detention Time is the length of time the water is retained in a vessel or basin, Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end, Depth is the vertical distance from the surface of a reference point, such as the ground or water surface, to a specific point or feature below & Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.

How to calculate Width of Tank given Detention Time?

The Width of Tank given Detention Time formula is defined as the value of the horizontal dimension of a tank or reservoir, considering detention time is calculated using Width = Detention Time/((Length*Depth)/Discharge). To calculate Width of Tank given Detention Time, you need Detention Time (T_d), Length (L), Depth (d) & Discharge (Q). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Detention Time, Length, Depth & Discharge and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Width?

In this formula, Width uses Detention Time, Length, Depth & Discharge. We can use 3 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Width = (Discharge entering Basin given Flow Velocity/(Flow Velocity*Depth))
Width = (Discharge entering Basin given Settling Velocity/(Settling Velocity*Length))
Width = (Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Depth))*(Ratio of Height to Length)
