Wet Cake Discharge Rate Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wet Cake Discharge = (Dry Cake Rate/Cake Solids in Decimal)
W = (D/C)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Wet Cake Discharge - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Wet Cake Discharge is defined as the solids removed from the surface of the cake by a scraper blade.
Dry Cake Rate - (Measured in Kilogram per Second) - Dry Cake Rate is defined as the weight of dry cake per unit time.
Cake Solids in Decimal - The Cake Solids in Decimal is the solid material remaining after dewatering or filtration processes, typically having a higher concentration of solids. Its percent value is expressed in decimal.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Dry Cake Rate: 30 Pound per Hour --> 0.0037799364167503 Kilogram per Second (Check conversion here)
Cake Solids in Decimal: 0.55 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W = (D/C) --> (0.0037799364167503/0.55)

Evaluating ... ...

W = 0.00687261166681873

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00687261166681873 Kilogram per Second -->54.5454545454546 Pound per Hour (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

54.5454545454546 ≈ 54.54545 Pound per Hour <-- Wet Cake Discharge

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Percent Cake Solids using Wet Cake Discharge Rate

Go Cake Solids in Decimal = (Dry Cake Rate/Wet Cake Discharge)

Dry Cake Rate using Wet Cake Discharge Rate

Go Dry Cake Rate = (Wet Cake Discharge*Cake Solids in Decimal)

Wet Cake Discharge Rate

Go Wet Cake Discharge = (Dry Cake Rate/Cake Solids in Decimal)

Wet Cake Rate using Volume of Wet Cake

Go Wet Cake Rate = (Volume of Wet Cake*Cake Density)

Cake Density using Volume of Wet Cake

Go Cake Density = (Wet Cake Rate/Volume of Wet Cake)

Volume of Wet Cake

Go Volume of Wet Cake = (Wet Cake Rate/Cake Density)

Wet Cake Discharge Rate Formula

Wet Cake Discharge = (Dry Cake Rate/Cake Solids in Decimal)
W = (D/C)

What is cake Discharge ?

The Cake Discharge is when all the solids are removed from the surface of the cake by a scraper blade, leaving a clean surface as the drum re-enters the slurry. There are a few types of discharge which are scraper, roller, string, endless belt, and pre-coat.
