In the absence of a flow equalization tank, or under high flow conditions when a
flow equalization tank is nearly full, the Operator should understand how long it
takes to fill a tank under different flow rate conditions.
Knowing fill rate times will be valuable in relation to flow equalization capacity or
lift station wet well capacity.
The detention time formula can be used.
