Calculate Waterfall Pump Size

Formula

The formula to calculate the Waterfall Pump Size (WPS) is:

\[ \text{WPS} = \text{W} \times 30 \]

What is Waterfall Pump Size?

The waterfall pump size is the flow rate required for a waterfall, typically measured in gallons per minute (GPM). It is determined by the width of the waterfall, where a wider waterfall requires a larger pump to achieve the desired flow. This calculation is essential for selecting the appropriate pump to ensure a smooth and visually appealing waterfall effect.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{WPS} = 4 \times 30 = 120 \]

The Waterfall Pump Size (WPS) is 120 GPM.
