Required water length in separator

Input(s)

$t_{w}$: Time of Water Residence (min)

$\mathrm{q}_{\mathrm{w}}$: Rate of Water Flow $\left(\mathrm{ft}^{3} / \mathrm{m}\right)$

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

Output(s)

$L_{w}$: Length of Water Column (ft)

Formula(s)

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