Depth of tank given Height to Length Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Depth = (Discharge in tank/(Settling Velocity*Width))*(Ratio of height to length)
D = (Qd/(vs*w))*(HL)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth is the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something.
Discharge in tank - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge in tank is the volumetric flow rate of water that is transported through a given cross-sectional area. It includes any suspended solids, dissolved chemicals, or biologic material.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.
Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the measurement or extent of something from side to side.
Ratio of height to length - Ratio of height to length is the defined as the ratio of height of sedimentation tank to length of sedimentation tank.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Discharge in tank: 100 Cubic Meter per Second --> 100 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Width: 2.29 Meter --> 2.29 Meter No Conversion Required
Ratio of height to length: 1.6 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
D = (Qd/(vs*w))*(HL) --> (100/(1.5*2.29))*(1.6)
Evaluating ... ...
D = 46.5793304221252
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
46.5793304221252 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
46.5793304221252 46.57933 Meter <-- Depth
(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

Depth of tank given Height to Length Ratio Formula

Depth = (Discharge in tank/(Settling Velocity*Width))*(Ratio of height to length)
D = (Qd/(vs*w))*(HL)

What is discharge ?

The amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge. If v is the mean velocity and A is the cross sectional area, the discharge Q is defined by Q = Av which is known as volume flow rate.
