Width of Tank given Settling Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Width = (Discharge entering Basin given Settling Velocity/(Settling Velocity*Length))
w = (Q_s/(v_s*L))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the horizontal measurement or dimension of a structure, feature, or area.
Discharge entering Basin given Settling Velocity - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge entering Basin given Settling Velocity is the volumetric flow rate of water that enters a sedimentation basin, calculated based on the settling velocity.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling Velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.
Length - (Measured in Meter) - Length is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge entering Basin given Settling Velocity: 10.339 Cubic Meter per Second --> 10.339 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Length: 3.01 Meter --> 3.01 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

w = (Q_s/(v_s*L)) --> (10.339/(1.5*3.01))

Evaluating ... ...

w = 2.28992248062016

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.28992248062016 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

2.28992248062016 ≈ 2.289922 Meter <-- Width
