    This document discusses the calculation of settling velocities and design of intake structures to remove particles from water. It provides formulas to calculate the settling velocity of particles based on their size, density, and the fluid properties. It then applies these formulas to design an inlet channel and silt excluder for a water intake system to ensure particles larger than 0.25mm and 2.5mm settle out before the water enters the intake. The silt excluder design is checked to verify the flow velocity is less than the scouring velocity to avoid resuspending settled particles.

    Calculation of Settling Velocity


    Calculate the settling velocity of 0.25
    0 25 mm particles of specific gravity 2.65.
    2 65 Given,
    Given g = 9.81
    9 81 m s-2, s and
    are the densities of particle (2650) and water (1000) respectively, in kg m-3, d is the particle diameter in m and

    Choose: n = 0.012;
    0 012; S = 00.005;

    0 20 m

    b = Channel width

    Assuming rectangular channel, R = (b.h)/(b + 2.h)

    h = depth
    d th off flow
    fl

    A = b.h;
    b h;

    S = channel slope

    Q = A.VH = (1/n).A.(R)2/3.(S)1/2;

    A = fl

    Choose h such that Q = 0.261


    0 261 m3/s; h = 1.09
    1 09 m

    VH = flow velocity

    VH = Q/(A) = 1.197 m/s; VH > Vsc, hence okay

    Silt Excluder
    All particles greater than 0.25 mm diameter must settle in the silt excluder
    Vsc (0.25 mm particles) = 0.254 ms-1;

    Thus, VH < Vsc

    Design of Silt Excluder:


    Height of Weir (Hw) = 1.1 m
    Flow over rectangular weir, Q = Cw. (2g)1/2.B.H3/2;

    Cw = 0.95; Choose B = 0.90 m

    Height of flow over the weir (H) = 0.168 m;


    Total Height of flow (h1) = Hw + H = 1.268 m (should be 1 2 m) ;
    VH = Q/(h1.B) = 0.228 m s-1 (< Vsc, okay)
    Vs (0.25 mm particle) = 0.032 ms-1; T = h/Vs = 40.03 s; L = T. VH = 9.14 m
    Provide 50% extra length (i.e., TE ~ 60 sec); Lprov = 13.71 m
