Volume of Tank given Detention Time Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Volume of Tank = Detention time*Rate of Flow
V = Td*qflow
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Volume of Tank - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of tank is defined as the capacity of flocculation and mixing tank.
Detention time - (Measured in Second) - Detention time is the length of time water is retained in a vessel or basin.
Rate of Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Rate of Flow is the rate at which a liquid or other substance flows through a particular channel, pipe, etc.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Detention time: 3 Minute --> 180 Second (Check conversion here)
Rate of Flow: 24 Cubic Meter per Second --> 24 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
V = Td*qflow --> 180*24
Evaluating ... ...
V = 4320
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
4320 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
4320 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Tank
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

5 Design of Continuous Flow Type of Sedimentation Tank Calculators

Height to Length Ratio given Settling Velocity
Go Ratio of height to length = (Settling Velocity*Width*Depth)/Discharge
Overflow Rate given Discharge
Go Overflow Rate = Discharge/(Width*Length)
Length to Depth Ratio given Settling Velocity
Go Length to depth = Flow Velocity/Settling Velocity
Rate of Flow given Detention Time
Go Rate of Flow = (Volume of Tank/Detention time)
Volume of Tank given Detention Time
Go Volume of Tank = Detention time*Rate of Flow

Volume of Tank given Detention Time Formula

Volume of Tank = Detention time*Rate of Flow
V = Td*qflow

what is detention time ?

The theoretical (calculated) time required for a given amount of water or wastewater to pass through a tank at a given rate of flow.
