Problem 3 (Problem 6.17-Textbook)
For a stratified bed with uniform porosity of 0.45. The rapid sand filter is made up of a 610 mm
deep bed of sand, specific gravity of 2.65, shape factor ($) = 0.82, temperature of 10°C, and
filtration rate of 1.70 liters per second per square meter (Lpsm2). A sieve analysis is presented
below. Determine the head loss for a clean filter bed using:
a) the Carman-Kozeny equation
b) Rose Equation
