Displacement Efficiency of Sedimentation Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Displacement Efficiency = Flowing through Period/Detention time
D^e = F_t/T_d
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Displacement Efficiency - Displacement efficiency is the ratio of flowing period to detention period.
Flowing through Period - (Measured in Second) - Flowing through Period is the time taken by the flow.
Detention time - (Measured in Second) - Detention time is the length of time water is retained in a vessel or basin.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Flowing through Period: 2 Second --> 2 Second No Conversion Required
Detention time: 3 Minute --> 180 Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D^e = F_t/T_d --> 2/180

Evaluating ... ...

D^e = 0.0111111111111111

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0111111111111111 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0111111111111111 ≈ 0.011111 <-- Displacement Efficiency
