Pump Flow Rate Calculation

This document calculates the required pump flow rate and head for draining a catchment area that is 12 feet by 12 feet by 12 feet over an 18 hour operation period. The required pump flow rate is determined to be 12 gallons per minute with a pump head of 15 feet. A submersible pump is selected that can pump at a flow rate of 0.68 liters per second against a head of 21 feet.
