Sprinkler Output Calculator

Formula

To calculate the Sprinkler Output:

\[ O = FR \times WT \]

Where:

\(O\) is the Output of the Sprinkler (gallons)
\(FR\) is the Flow Rate of the Sprinkler (gallons per minute)
\(WT\) is the Watering Time (minutes)

What is Sprinkler Output?

Sprinkler output is the total volume of water distributed by a sprinkler system over a specific area during a given time period. It is an important measure for ensuring that a lawn or garden receives the right amount of water without waste. Proper calculation of sprinkler output helps in efficient water management and maintaining the health of the plants.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Flow Rate (\(FR\)) = 10 gallons per minute
Watering Time (\(WT\)) = 30 minutes

Using the formula:

\[ O = 10 \times 30 = 300 \text{ gallons} \]

The Sprinkler Output is 300 gallons.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Flow Rate (\(FR\)) = 15 gallons per minute
Watering Time (\(WT\)) = 20 minutes

Using the formula:

\[ O = 15 \times 20 = 300 \text{ gallons} \]

The Sprinkler Output is 300 gallons.
