NOTES / REMARKS
(1): Available time is based on inlet flowrate for all levels.
(2) Without heads
(3) Required to keep the electrical heater submerged
(4) Based on two wells flowrate
(5) Optimization of vessel diameter taking into account the length (L) calculated wit the case "20 min full flow"
With a vessel diameter of 4100 mm, a length of 12 200 m is calculated
(6) Minimum path length and minimum vessel length are the same then diverters are installed on inlets.
