Width of Tank given Height to Length Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Width = (Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Depth))*(Ratio of height to length)
w = (Q/(vs*D))*(HL)
This formula uses 5 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.
Settling Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Settling velocity is defined as the terminal velocity of a particle in still fluid.
Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Depth is the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something.
Ratio of height to length - Ratio of height to length is the defined as the ratio of height of sedimentation tank to length of sedimentation tank.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Discharge: 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second --> 1.01 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Settling Velocity: 1.5 Meter per Second --> 1.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Depth: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Ratio of height to length: 1.6 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
w = (Q/(vs*D))*(HL) --> (1.01/(1.5*3))*(1.6)
Evaluating ... ...
w = 0.359111111111111
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.359111111111111 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.359111111111111 0.359111 Meter <-- Width

Width of Tank given Height to Length Ratio Formula

Width = (Discharge/(Settling Velocity*Depth))*(Ratio of height to length)
w = (Q/(vs*D))*(HL)

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.
