Width of Tank given Height to Length Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Width = (Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Depth))*(Ratio of Height to Length)
w = (Q/(v_s*d))*(HL)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the horizontal measurement or dimension of a structure, feature, or area.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.
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.
Ratio of Height to Length - Ratio of Height to Length is defined as the ratio of height of sedimentation tank to length of sedimentation tank.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge: 3 Cubic Meter per Second --> 3 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Depth: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Ratio of Height to Length: 3.45 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

w = (Q/(v_s*d))*(HL) --> (3/(1.5*3))*(3.45)

Evaluating ... ...

w = 2.3

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.3 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.3 Meter <-- Width
