But actually 1 in 105 for a velocity of 0.9m/s & 1 in 150 for a velocity of 0.75m/s.

Take V = 0.9 m/s,
R = D/4,
then, S will be equal to 1/118 which is close to 1/120.

I didn't understand which formula was used. Can anyone help me?

Which formula is used here to calculate self cleansing formula?

NBO recommend for small sewers.

225 dia = 1:120 = 0.79 m/sec.

For 100 => 1 in 25.
For 150 => 1 in 65,
For 230 => 1 in 130.

Yes, the gradient, 1 in 105 is greater than 1 in 150.

100mm = 1 in 60.
150mm = 1 in 100.
225mm = 1 in 120.
