Falling Speed in Settling Zone Formulas

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. And is denoted by v^'. Falling Speed is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Falling Speed is always positive. Typically, the value of Falling Speed is greater than 0.
