Width of Tank given Flow Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Width = (Discharge/(Flow Velocity*Depth))
w = (Q/(V_f*D))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Width - (Measured in Meter) - Width is the measurement or extent of something from side to side.
Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid.
Flow Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Flow Velocity is the velocity of the flow of any fluid.
Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth is the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Flow Velocity: 1.12 Meter per Second --> 1.12 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Depth: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

w = (Q/(V_f*D)) --> (1.01/(1.12*3))

Evaluating ... ...

w = 0.300595238095238

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.300595238095238 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.300595238095238 ≈ 0.300595 Meter <-- Width

< 6 Width of Tank Calculators

Width of Tank given Height to Length Ratio

Go Width = (Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Depth))*(Ratio of height to length)

Width of Tank given Detention Time

Go Width = Detention time/((Length*Depth)/Discharge)

Width of Tank given Settling Velocity of Particular Sized Particle

Go Width = (70*Discharge)/(100*Length*Settling Velocity)

Width of Tank given Settling Velocity

Go Width = (Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Length))

Width of Tank given Overflow Rate

Go Width = (Discharge/(Overflow Rate*Length))

Width of Tank given Flow Velocity

Go Width = (Discharge/(Flow Velocity*Depth))

Width of Tank given Flow Velocity Formula

Width = (Discharge/(Flow Velocity*Depth))
w = (Q/(V_f*D))

What is discharge ?

The amount of fluid passing a section of a stream in unit time is called the discharge. If v is the mean velocity and A is the cross sectional area, the discharge Q is defined by Q = Av which is known as volume flow rate.

How to Calculate Width of Tank given Flow Velocity?

Width of Tank given Flow Velocity calculator uses Width = (Discharge/(Flow Velocity*Depth)) to calculate the Width, Width of Tank given Flow Velocity calculates width of sedimentation tank when we have prior information of other parameters used. Width is denoted by w symbol.

How to calculate Width of Tank given Flow Velocity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Width of Tank given Flow Velocity, enter Discharge (Q), Flow Velocity (V_f) & Depth (D) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Width of Tank given Flow Velocity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.297619 = (discharge/(1.12*3)).

FAQ

What is Width of Tank given Flow Velocity?

Width of Tank given Flow Velocity calculates width of sedimentation tank when we have prior information of other parameters used and is represented as w = (Q/(V_f*D)) or Width = (Discharge/(Flow Velocity*Depth)). Discharge is the rate of flow of a liquid, Flow Velocity is the velocity of the flow of any fluid & Depth is the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something.

How to calculate Width of Tank given Flow Velocity?
