    The overflow rate is defined as: [citation needed] Overflow rate (v o) = Flow of water (Q (m 3 /s)) /(Surface area of settling basin (A(m 2)) In many countries this value is named as surface loading in m 3 /h per m 2. Overflow rate is often used for flow over an edge (for example a weir) in the unit m 3 /h per m.
