Required oil length in separator

Input(s)

$t_{o}$: Residence Oil Time (min)

$\mathrm{q}_{\mathrm{o}}$: Oil Rate $\left(\mathrm{ft}^{3} / \mathrm{m}\right)$

$\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{o}}$: Area of Oil $\left(\mathrm{ft}^{2}\right)$

Output(s)

$L_{o}$: Length Required by Oil Flow (ft)

Formula(s)

$$ \mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{o}}=\frac{\mathrm{t}_{\mathrm{o}} * \mathrm{q}_{\mathrm{o}}}{\mathrm{A}_{\mathrm{o}}} $$
