General Program Information

Input Definitions

• origin is the center point of the outlet of the first sedimentation tank
• width.sed is the distance between the outlets of the sedimentation tanks or the width of the sedimentation tanks from the center line of the wall on either side of a tank
• lvltank.dim is a 3,1 matrix with the x,y,z dimensions of the tank
• Δ x is the distance in the x direction in a top view from the outlet of the first sedimentation tank (or the origin of the first pipe) to the outside wall of the leveling tank
• Δ y is the distance in the y direction in a top view from the outlet of the first sedimentation tank (or the origin of the first pipe) to the outside wall of the leveling tank
• Δ z is the distance in the z direction in a top view from the outlet of the first sedimentation tank (or the origin of the first pipe) to the bottom wall of the platform
• lvltank.thick is the thickness of the walls of the leveling tank
• thick.platform is the thickness of the platform
• R1 is the inner radius of the pipes leading to the leveling tank
• R.main is the inner radius of the effluent pipe
• H.main is the height of the effluent pipe (or the water level in the leveling tank)
• n is the number of sedimentation tanks
• disp is the displacement of the center of the pipes coming up into the leveling tanks from the inside wall of the tank

Notes

• All coordinates correspond to a top view.
• The floor of the leveling tank is at the same elevation as the top of the platform
