1. What is a Pool Water Delivery Calculator?

Definition: This calculator estimates the volume of water delivered based on the flow rate and time duration.

Purpose: It helps pool maintenance professionals and homeowners determine how much water will be delivered during filling or water replacement.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• \( V \) — Volume delivered (cubic meters, m³)
• \( Q \) — Flow rate (m³/s)
• \( t \) — Time (seconds, s)

Explanation: The flow rate is multiplied by time to determine the total volume of water delivered.

3. Importance of Water Delivery Calculation

Details: Accurate volume estimation ensures proper pool filling, chemical treatment planning, and water resource management.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the flow rate in m³/s and time in seconds. All values must be > 0.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How do I convert from liters/second to m³/s?
A: Divide liters/second by 1000 to get m³/s (1 m³ = 1000 liters).

Q2: What's a typical pool fill flow rate?
A: Residential water supply typically delivers 0.002-0.005 m³/s (2-5 liters/second).

Q3: How do I calculate time needed to fill my pool?
A: Rearrange the formula: t = V/Q, where V is your pool volume.

Q4: Does this account for evaporation or leaks?
A: No, this calculates theoretical delivery. For actual pool filling, consider adding 5% for evaporation.

Q5: How do I measure my water flow rate?
A: Use a flow meter or time how long it takes to fill a container of known volume.
