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.

LDD modified tank worksheets to simplify data entry requirements. Provided space for up to 15 tank fill periods.
MWS added guidelines

MWS added calculations for rectangular tanks. Made minor modifications to all sheets for increased functionality.
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.

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.

no
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.

2. 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.

2. 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.

2. 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.

2. 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.

2. 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.

NOTE: If the tank is a hydropillar, the tank spreadsheet
can approximate the tank turnover and mixing, but the
tank must operate in the range of the tank that has a
cylindrical shape, not the cone-shaped bottom section.
As shown below:
