Fire Duration given Reserve Storage Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Duration of Fire = Reserve Storage/(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump)
t = V_R/(F-P)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Duration of Fire - (Measured in Second) - Duration of Fire refers to the length of time that a fire burns within a given area or ecosystem.
Reserve Storage - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Reserve Storage refers to the capacity within a system, such as a reservoir or a water treatment facility, that is intentionally left unused or untapped under normal operating conditions.
Fire Demand - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Fire Demand is the amount of water required to extinguish fire.
Capacity of Pump - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Capacity of Pump refers to the volume of fluid (such as water, sewage, or other liquids) that the pump is capable of moving within a given amount of time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Reserve Storage: 1960 Liter --> 1.96 Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Fire Demand: 1100 Liter per day --> 1.27314814814815E-05 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
Capacity of Pump: 120 Liter per day --> 1.38888888888889E-06 Cubic Meter per Second (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t = V_R/(F-P) --> 1.96/(1.27314814814815E-05-1.38888888888889E-06)

Evaluating ... ...

t = 172800

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

172800 Second -->2 Day (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

2 Day <-- Duration of Fire

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Fire Demand given Total Storage Capacity

Go Fire Demand = (Total Storage Capacity-((Numerical Coefficient a+Numerical Coefficient b+(10/24))*Average Domestic Demand)+((10/24)*Capacity of Pump))/(10/24)

Average Domestic Demand given Total Storage Capacity

Go Average Domestic Demand = (Total Storage Capacity-((10/24)*(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump)))/(Numerical Coefficient a+Numerical Coefficient b+(10/24))

Total Storage Capacity of Reservoir

Go Total Storage Capacity = (Numerical Coefficient a+Numerical Coefficient b+(10/24))*Average Domestic Demand+(10/24)*(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump)

Fire Demand given Value of McDonald Coefficient

Go Fire Demand = (Total Storage Capacity-((0.2+0.1+(10/24))*Average Domestic Demand)+((10/24)*Capacity of Pump))/(10/24)

Reserve Fire Pumping Capacity given Reserve Storage

Go Capacity of Pump = Fire Demand-(Reserve Storage/Duration of Fire)

Fire Duration given Reserve Storage

Go Duration of Fire = Reserve Storage/(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump)

Fire Demand given Reserve Storage

Go Fire Demand = (Reserve Storage/Duration of Fire)+Capacity of Pump

Reserve Storage

Go Reserve Storage = (Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump)*Duration of Fire

Fire Duration given Reserve Storage Formula

Duration of Fire = Reserve Storage/(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump)
t = V_R/(F-P)

What is Fire Demand ?

Fire Demand is the amount of water required to extinguish fire. Or. The water required for fire fighting in a given area. Although the actual amount of water used in a year is small for firefighting.

How to Calculate Fire Duration given Reserve Storage?

Fire Duration given Reserve Storage calculator uses Duration of Fire = Reserve Storage/(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump) to calculate the Duration of Fire, The Fire Duration given Reserve Storage is defined as the length of time a fire can be sustained given a certain amount of reserve storage, when we have prior information of other parameters used. Duration of Fire is denoted by t symbol.

How to calculate Fire Duration given Reserve Storage using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Fire Duration given Reserve Storage, enter Reserve Storage (V_R), Fire Demand (F) & Capacity of Pump (P) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Fire Duration given Reserve Storage calculation can be explained with given input values -> 2.3E-5 = 1.96/(1.27314814814815E-05-1.38888888888889E-06).

FAQ

What is Fire Duration given Reserve Storage?

The Fire Duration given Reserve Storage is defined as the length of time a fire can be sustained given a certain amount of reserve storage, when we have prior information of other parameters used and is represented as t = V_R/(F-P) or Duration of Fire = Reserve Storage/(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump). Reserve Storage refers to the capacity within a system, such as a reservoir or a water treatment facility, that is intentionally left unused or untapped under normal operating conditions, Fire Demand is the amount of water required to extinguish fire & Capacity of Pump refers to the volume of fluid (such as water, sewage, or other liquids) that the pump is capable of moving within a given amount of time.

How to calculate Fire Duration given Reserve Storage?

The Fire Duration given Reserve Storage is defined as the length of time a fire can be sustained given a certain amount of reserve storage, when we have prior information of other parameters used is calculated using Duration of Fire = Reserve Storage/(Fire Demand-Capacity of Pump). To calculate Fire Duration given Reserve Storage, you need Reserve Storage (V_R), Fire Demand (F) & Capacity of Pump (P). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Reserve Storage, Fire Demand & Capacity of Pump and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
