Well Water Flow Rate Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Well Water Flow Rate.
WWFR = G / T * 60
- Where WWFR is the Well Water Flow Rate (GPM)
- G is the gallons drawn
- T is the number of seconds per pump cycle
How to Calculate Well Water Flow Rate?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Well Water Flow Rate.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the gallons drawn.
- The gallons drawn is given as: 3.
- Next, determine the number of seconds per pump cycle.
- The number of seconds per pump cycle is provided as: 20.
- Finally, calculate the Well Water Flow Rate using the equation above:
WWFR = G / T * 60
The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.
WWFR = 3 / 20 * 60 = 9 (GPM)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables required are provided below:
gallons drawn = 4
number of seconds per pump cycle = 30
Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..
WWFR = G / T * 60 = ?
