Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Detention time = (Volume*7.48*24*60)/Peak flow rate
T_d = (V_T*7.48*24*60)/Q_p
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Detention time - (Measured in Second) - Detention time is the length of time water is retained in a vessel or basin.
Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume is the amount of space that a substance or object occupies or that is enclosed within a container.
Peak flow rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Peak flow rate is defined as volumetric flow rate of peak flow.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume: 0.63 Cubic Meter --> 0.63 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Peak flow rate: 5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_d = (V_T*7.48*24*60)/Q_p --> (0.63*7.48*24*60)/5

Evaluating ... ...

T_d = 1357.1712

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1357.1712 Second -->22.61952 Minute (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

22.61952 Minute <-- Detention time

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Width using Length of Grit Chamber

Go Width of grit chamber = (Volume/(Depth of grit chamber*Length of grit chamber))

Depth given Length of Grit Chamber

Go Depth of grit chamber = (Volume/(Length of grit chamber*Width of grit chamber))

Length of Grit Chamber

Go Length of grit chamber = (Volume/(Width of grit chamber*Depth of grit chamber))

Volume using Length of Grit Chamber

Go Volume = (Length of grit chamber*Width of grit chamber*Depth of grit chamber)

Width of Grit Chamber

Go Width of grit chamber = (Selected width ratio*Depth of grit chamber)

Selected Width-Ratio given Width of Grit Chamber

Go Selected width ratio = Width of grit chamber/Depth of grit chamber

Chosen Depth given Width of Grit Chamber

Go Depth of grit chamber = Width of grit chamber/Selected width ratio

Chamber Length using Air supply required

Go Length of grit chamber = (Chosen air supply/Air supply required)

Chosen Air Supply given Air supply required

Go Chosen air supply = Air supply required*Length of grit chamber

Air supply required in Grit Chamber

Go Air supply required = Chosen air supply/Length of grit chamber

Assumed Grit Quantity given Volume of Aerated Grit Chamber

Go Assumed grit quantity = (Volume/Volumetric Flow Rate)

Volume Flow Rate given Volume of Aerated Grit Chamber

Go Volumetric Flow Rate = (Volume/Assumed grit quantity)

Volume of Each Grit Chamber

Go Volume = (Peak flow rate*Detention time)/(7.48*24*60)

Peak Flow Rate given Volume of Each Grit Chamber

Go Peak flow rate = (Volume*7.48*24*60)/Detention time

Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber

Go Detention time = (Volume*7.48*24*60)/Peak flow rate

Volume of Aerated Grit Chamber

Go Volume = Assumed grit quantity*Volumetric Flow Rate

Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber Formula

Detention time = (Volume*7.48*24*60)/Peak flow rate
T_d = (V_T*7.48*24*60)/Q_p

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.

How to Calculate Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber?

Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber calculator uses Detention time = (Volume*7.48*24*60)/Peak flow rate to calculate the Detention time, The Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber calculates the length of time water is retained in a grit chamber. Detention time is denoted by T_d symbol.

How to calculate Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber, enter Volume (V_T) & Peak flow rate (Q_p) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Detention Time given Volume of each Grit Chamber calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.376992 = (0.63*7.48*24*60)/5.

FAQ
