DESANDER OVERFLOW DESIGN

Qf = inflow volume of submerged orifice (m3/s) DESIGN OF DESANDER FLUSHING

Qf = Ai x Cv x Ca x (2xgxH)^0.5 Qf= 0.20Qd
Ai = bi x (dh + hi), dh = 0.10-0.15m Qf= 0.394 m3/s
Cv = coefficient of velocity = 1/(1+f) Assume V= 4 m/s
f = coefficient of inflow loss Areq.= 0.1 m2
Ca = 0.6 approximately USED D= 0.3 m
