STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Volume of Tank = (Retention Time*Flow rate of secondary effluent)/Time in min per day
V = (T*Qe)/Tm/d
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Volume of Tank - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of tank is defined as the capacity of flocculation and mixing tank.
Retention Time - (Measured in Second) - Retention time is a measure of the time taken to pass through the flocculation basin.
Flow rate of secondary effluent - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Flow rate of secondary effluent is the volume of effluent passing per unit time.
Time in min per day - Time in min per day is the ratio of time in min to time in day.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Retention Time: 5 Second --> 5 Second No Conversion Required
Flow rate of secondary effluent: 5 Cubic Meter per Second --> 5 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Time in min per day: 0.3 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
V = (T*Qe)/Tm/d --> (5*5)/0.3
Evaluating ... ...
V = 83.3333333333333
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
83.3333333333333 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
83.3333333333333 83.33333 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Tank
