GPM Formula
The following formula is used to calculate gallons per minute.
GPM = 60 / X
- Where GPM is the gallons per minute
- X is the number of seconds it takes to fill one gallon
To calculate gallons per minute, simply divide 60 by the number of seconds it takes to fill one gallon.
GPM Definition
GPM is defined as the rate of flow of water in gallons per minute.
GPM Example
How to calculate GPM?
- First, gather a 1 gallon bucket.
Place the gallon bucket under the water flow.
- Next, measure the time it takes to fill.
Using a stop watch, measure the time it takes to fill the bucket.
- Finally, calculate GPM.
Calculate the GPM using the formula above and the seconds from step 2.
FAQ
What is GPM?
GPM stands for gallons per minute and is a measure of the volumetric flow rate of a liquid, most often water.
