Peak Discharge in Circular Settling Tanks Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Peak Discharge = Average Daily Load*Peaking factor
Qp = q*f
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Peak Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Peak Discharge is the maximum volume flow rate passing a particular location during an event.
Average Daily Load - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Average Daily Load is a customer's average daily consumption of water in MLD.
Peaking factor - Peaking factor is the ratio of the maximum flow to the average daily flow in a water system.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Average Daily Load: 2.1 Cubic Meter per Second --> 2.1 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Peaking factor: 2 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Qp = q*f --> 2.1*2
Evaluating ... ...
Qp = 4.2
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
4.2 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
4.2 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Peak Discharge
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

15 Design of a Circular Settling Tank Calculators

Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids in Aeration Tank using Maximum Solids
Go MLSS = (Maximum Solids in Aeriation Tank/((Peak Discharge+Return Activated Sludge)*8.34))
Design Surface Loading Rate given Surface Area of Circular Settling Tank
Go Surface Loading Rate = (Peak Discharge/Surface Area)
Average Daily Load using Peak Discharge in Circular Settling Tanks
Go Average Daily Load = (Peak Discharge/Peaking factor)
Peaking Factor using Peak Discharge in Circular Settling Tanks
Go Peaking factor = (Peak Discharge/Average Daily Load)
Peak Discharge given Surface Area of Circular Settling Tank
Go Peak Discharge = (Surface Area*Surface Loading Rate)
Surface Area of Circular Settling Tank
Go Surface Area = (Peak Discharge/Surface Loading Rate)
Solids Processed given Actual Solid Loading Rate
Go Solid Processed = (Solid Loading Rate*Surface Area)
Assumed Solid Loading Rate of Circular Settling Tanks
Go Solid Loading Rate = (Maximum Solids/Surface Area)
Peak Discharge in Circular Settling Tanks
Go Peak Discharge = Average Daily Load*Peaking factor
Total Settling Tank Surface Area given Actual Solid Loading Rate
Go Surface Area = Solid Processed/Solid Loading Rate
Actual Solid Loading Rate of Circular Settling Tanks
Go Solid Loading Rate = Solid Processed/Surface Area
Maximum Solids given Solid Loading Rate
Go Maximum Solids = Surface Area*Solid Loading Rate
Surface Area given Solid Loading Rate
Go Surface Area = Maximum Solids/Solid Loading Rate
Influent Flow Rate given Return Activated Sludge Flow Rate
Go Average Daily Influent Flow Rate = (Return Activated Sludge/1.25)
Return Activated Sludge Flow Rate
Go Return Activated Sludge = 1.25*Average Daily Influent Flow Rate
