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