Falling Speed given Surface Area with respect to Settling Velocity Formula Elements

Variables
Falling Speed
The Falling Speed refers to the constant speed at which a particle falls through a fluid when the force of gravity is balanced by the drag force and buoyant force acting on the particle.
Symbol: v'
Measurement: SpeedUnit: m/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Settling Velocity
The Settling Velocity refers to the rate at which a particle suspended in a fluid (like water or air) falls under the influence of gravity until reaches a constant speed.
Symbol: Vs
Measurement: SpeedUnit: m/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Area
The Area of a sedimentation tank refers to the surface area of the tank where sedimentation, or the settling of suspended particles, occurs.
Symbol: A
Measurement: AreaUnit:
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Cross-Sectional Area
The Cross-Sectional Area of a sedimentation tank refers to the vertical slice of the tank, typically viewed from the side, that shows the depth and width.
Symbol: Acs
