Tank Spreadsheet

3/23/2010

Instructions to Users >The purpose of this spreadsheet is to summarize tank characteristics, assess water storage tank turnover time and mixing, and determine operational strategies to improve turnover time and mixing. >Enter information into the Summary worksheet about the storage tanks. >Enter data into the Tank worksheets for the storage tanks in the distribution system. Tank diameter, inlet diameter, and water level changes over a period of time are required inputs. Water system SCADA data is typically used to determine the changes in tank water levels. >If the tank turnover time calculations (in the Tank worksheet) determine that turnover time is high, the Turnover Time Analysis should be used to determine operational changes to improve turnover time. >If the tank mixing calculations (in the Tank worksheet) determine that mixing is poor, the Mixing Analysis should be used to determine solutions to improve mixing. Guidelines >The tank turnover time and mixing calculations are not applicable for every tank. The following are guidelines for these calculations: Tank Mixing Assessment CAN Be Done On: -- Tanks that operate in a fill/ draw mode -- Tank inlets oriented horizontally or vertically. -- Cylindrical, rectangular, or hydropillar tanks or certain tanks having SCADA that report changes in volume (i.e., elliptical or spherical) -- Tanks with a submerged inlet. -- Under neutrally buoyant conditions (no temperature difference between the inlet water and tank water) Tank Mixing Assessment CANNOT Be Done On: -- Flow-through tanks (tanks operating with simultaneous inflow and outflow) -- Irregular-shaped tanks. -- If the tank is baffled or has pillars. Turnover Time Calculation CAN Be Used On: -- Tanks that operate in a fill/ draw mode -- Tanks with any inlet orientation and baffling -- Cylindrical, rectangular, or hydropillar tanks or tanks having SCADA that report changes in volume -- Tanks with any inlet/outlet configuration -- Under any buoyancy conditions (temperature differences between the inlet water and tank water) Turnover Time Calculation CANNOT Be Used On: -- Flow-through tanks (tanks operating with simultaneous inflow and outflow)

>Care should be taken to apply these calculations in the following cases: -- If you do not know the configuration of the tank inlet or if you do not know if there are any baffles inside the tank. -- If the inlet is located near the tank wall, mixing will be reduced. -- If the age of the water entering the tank is significantly old, the turnover time will not approximate the total water age in the tank. -- If the temperature difference between the water coming into the tank and the water in the tank is significantly different. This may decrease tank mixing due to buoyancy. >In situations where the tank is not well mixed or when the mixing calculations cannot be used, the tank turnover time calculations only show the average turnover time of the tank. There may be much older "dead-zones" of water in the tank.

Tank Summary
Instructions: 1. Enter tank characteristics into section I below. Section II and III will be populated automatically when data is entered into the tank worksheets. NOTE: Data inputted by the user are shown in red. Data must be entered into section I for the spreadsheet to function. 2. After completing section I, go to the tank worksheets entitled "Tank #1", "Tank #2", etc. Enter the operational data in Step 1 of the worksheet. Once the data is entered in Step 1, proceed to Step 2 and 3, if appropriate. 3. If the tank calculations in Step 1 determine that turnover time and/or mixing is poor, Step 2 and 3 of the tank worksheet will determine possible ways to improve tank operations. The calculations analyze current operations and develop operational solutions to decrease water age and increase mixing in the tank. I. Tank Characteristics (See Glossary worksheet for illustrations of Tank Characteristics) **Data must be entered into this section for the spreadsheet to function. **Do not enter tank dimensions if the tank is NOT cylindrical, rectangular, or hydropillar. **Hydropillar tanks can be approximated as cylindrical tanks depending on their operating range. See glossary for illustration. Tank #1 A. Name of Tank B. Volume (MG) If the SCADA/ telemetery reports tank level in feet answer question C, then answer questions E, F, and G. If the SCADA/ telemetry does not report the tank level in feet, answer "n" in question C and then answer questions D1, D2, E3, F, and G. Is the tank Cylindrical (C), Rectangular (R), C. Hydropillar1 (H), or None of these (n)? level D1. Does the SCADA/ telemetry report tank in volume (y/n)? D2. If SCADA/ telemetry is reported in volume, are the tank mixing equations applicable - see note 4 (y/n)? E1.

II. Tank Calculations (from Tank Data Input worksheets) **If data is missing the reason could be that the tank mixing equations may not be applicable or the tank may not be cylindrical, hydropillar, rectangular, or have SCADA that reports volume rather than level. Turnover Time (days) Mixing Performance Ratio (Measured/ Desired) Notes: 1. Hydropillar tanks can be approximated as cylindrical tanks depending on their operating range. See glossary for illustration. 2. In flow-through operation water is simultaneously coming into the tank and leaving the tank. In fill-draw operation water is can either be filling the tank or drawing from the tank at any one time (this is typical of most tanks). 3. If the tank operates flow-through the turnover time calculations are not applicable. 4. The mixing calculations are applicable if the tank shape is cylindrical, rectangular, elliptical, or a hydropillar AND the tank operates fill-draw. The mixing calculations are not applicable if the tank operates flow-through OR the tank is irregularly shaped.

Step 3: Chlorine Residual Analysis


Instructions: Five scenarios are available for estimating the minimum chlorine concentration exiting a completely mixed or plug flow tank during a drain cycle. This analysis may be able to 1) identify if the performance problem at the tank is due to incomplete mixing, 2) determine the chlorine concentration needed to enter the tank in order to achieve target chlorine residuals leaving the tank, or 3) determine the chlorine decay rate needed at the tank in order to achieve target chlorine residuals leaving the tank. Remember - ideal tank performance is complete mixing! Modify data shown in red. No Changes Estimated Current Conditions FALSE FALSE #DIV/0! #DIV/0!

The user should assume that when the tank is well mixed (mixing PR >= 1) the minimum concentration leaving the tank is close to the completely mixed result. If the tank is poorly mixed (mixing PR < 1) the user should be cautious about using the plug flow result to determine the minimum concentration leaving the tank. Tanks can operate in many different and unpredictable ways. If the tank is not baffled (like a clearwell) or specifically designed to be plug flow, then the tank operation is probably not plug flow. In most cases, if the tank is not well mixed (mixing PR < 1) there may be some areas of the tank volume that are mixed (e.g., close to the inlet zone) and other areas (i.e., dead-zones) that are unmixed and probably have an undetectable chlorine residual. If this is the case, neither the plug flow nor completely mixed result for minimum concentration leaving the tank is applicable.

Step 3: Chlorine Residual Analysis


Instructions: Five scenarios are available for estimating the minimum chlorine concentration exiting a completely mixed or plug flow tank during a drain cycle. This analysis may be able to 1) identify if the performance problem at the tank is due to incomplete mixing, 2) determine the chlorine concentration needed to enter the tank in order to achieve target chlorine residuals leaving the tank, or 3) determine the chlorine decay rate needed at the tank in order to achieve target chlorine residuals leaving the tank. Remember - ideal tank performance is complete mixing! Modify data shown in red. No Changes Estimated Current Conditions FALSE FALSE #DIV/0! #DIV/0!

The user should assume that when the tank is well mixed (mixing PR >= 1) the minimum concentration leaving the tank is close to the completely mixed result. If the tank is poorly mixed (mixing PR < 1) the user should be cautious about using the plug flow result to determine the minimum concentration leaving the tank. Tanks can operate in many different and unpredictable ways. If the tank is not baffled (like a clearwell) or specifically designed to be plug flow, then the tank operation is probably not plug flow. In most cases, if the tank is not well mixed (mixing PR < 1) there may be some areas of the tank volume that are mixed (e.g., close to the inlet zone) and other areas (i.e., dead-zones) that are unmixed and probably have an undetectable chlorine residual. If this is the case, neither the plug flow nor completely mixed result for minimum concentration leaving the tank is applicable.

Step 3: Chlorine Residual Analysis


Instructions: Five scenarios are available for estimating the minimum chlorine concentration exiting a completely mixed or plug flow tank during a drain cycle. This analysis may be able to 1) identify if the performance problem at the tank is due to incomplete mixing, 2) determine the chlorine concentration needed to enter the tank in order to achieve target chlorine residuals leaving the tank, or 3) determine the chlorine decay rate needed at the tank in order to achieve target chlorine residuals leaving the tank. Remember - ideal tank performance is complete mixing! Modify data shown in red. No Changes Estimated Current Conditions FALSE FALSE #DIV/0! #DIV/0!

The user should assume that when the tank is well mixed (mixing PR >= 1) the minimum concentration leaving the tank is close to the completely mixed result. If the tank is poorly mixed (mixing PR < 1) the user should be cautious about using the plug flow result to determine the minimum concentration leaving the tank. Tanks can operate in many different and unpredictable ways. If the tank is not baffled (like a clearwell) or specifically designed to be plug flow, then the tank operation is probably not plug flow. In most cases, if the tank is not well mixed (mixing PR < 1) there may be some areas of the tank volume that are mixed (e.g., close to the inlet zone) and other areas (i.e., dead-zones) that are unmixed and probably have an undetectable chlorine residual. If this is the case, neither the plug flow nor completely mixed result for minimum concentration leaving the tank is applicable.

The user should assume that when the tank is well mixed (mixing PR >= 1) the minimum concentration leaving the tank is close to the completely mixed result. If the tank is poorly mixed (mixing PR < 1) the user should be cautious about using the plug flow result to determine the minimum concentration leaving the tank. Tanks can operate in many different and unpredictable ways. If the tank is not baffled (like a clearwell) or specifically designed to be plug flow, then the tank operation is probably not plug flow. In most cases, if the tank is not well mixed (mixing PR < 1) there may be some areas of the tank volume that are mixed (e.g., close to the inlet zone) and other areas (i.e., dead-zones) that are unmixed and probably have an undetectable chlorine residual. If this is the case, neither the plug flow nor completely mixed result for minimum concentration leaving the tank is applicable.
