Scour Flashcards
1
Q
What is the scour velocity
A
The scour velocity is is used in order to make sure that the horizental velocity in a settling doesnt exceed the scour velocity
2
Q
scour velocity formula
A
Vscour=(8beta(S-1)gd/f)power0.5
3
Q
What is S in scour velocity formula
A
S is specific gravity
4
Q
What is Beta in scour velocity formula
A
Constant 0.04 to 0.06
we take it 0.05 if not given
5
Q
What is f in scour velocity formula
A
friction parameter from 0.02 to 0.03
we take it 0.025
