A mathematical model for predicting velocity field and concentration distribution of suspended materials in a settling tank is established by stream-function and vorticity transport equations with a constant eddy viscosity. The eddy viscosity is determined by using measured data. The model was tested with measured data for velocities and concentrations. The model was applied to investigate the effect of submergence and location of a baffle on removal of solid. It is found that the model can be used to simulate velocity fields and concentration profiles for two open channel effluent system.
