How to Use the "Washing Machine Water Usage Calculator"

This is a code snippet for a washing machine water usage calculator. The calculator takes inputs of load size, water temperature, cycle type, and machine efficiency to calculate the estimated water usage of the washing machine. The form uses HTML and the calculator is programmed using JavaScript.

Instructions for Utilizing the Calculator:

The form has four input fields:

  • load-size (number input with a unit of kg)
  • water-temp (select input with options for cold, warm, and hot water)
  • cycle-type (select input with options for normal, delicate, and heavy-duty cycles)
  • machine-efficiency (number input with a unit of liters per kg)

The form also has a submit button with an event listener that triggers the calculation of the estimated water usage based on the input values. The results of the calculation are displayed in a table that has the following five rows:

  • Load Size (kg)
  • Water Temperature
  • Cycle Type
  • Machine Efficiency (liters/kg)
  • Estimated Water Usage

The table displays the input values and the calculated estimated water usage. The JavaScript code uses a switch statement and conditional statements to calculate the estimated water usage based on the selected cycle type and water temperature. The calculated water usage is then displayed in the table.

"Washing Machine Water Usage Calculator" Formula:

The formula for calculating estimated water usage is:

waterUsage = loadSize * machineEfficiency * cycleMultiplier * tempMultiplier

where

  • loadSize is the weight of the laundry load in kilograms
  • machineEfficiency is the water usage efficiency of the washing machine in liters per kilogram
  • cycleMultiplier is a multiplier based on the cycle type (normal = 20, delicate = 15, heavy-duty = 25)
  • tempMultiplier is a multiplier based on the water temperature (cold = 1, warm = 1.2, hot = 1.5)

Illustrative Examples:

  1. If a washing machine has a load size of 7kg, a machine efficiency of 0.1 liters/kg, a normal cycle type, and a cold water temperature, then the estimated water usage would be: waterUsage = 7 * 0.1 * 20 * 1 waterUsage = 14 liters
  2. If a washing machine has a load size of 5kg, a machine efficiency of 0.08 liters/kg, a delicate cycle type, and a warm water temperature, then the estimated water usage would be: waterUsage = 5 * 0.08 * 15 * 1.2 waterUsage = 7.2 liters

Illustrative Table Example:

Load Size (kg)Water TemperatureCycle TypeMachine Efficiency (liters/kg)Estimated Water Usage

The Washing Machine Water Usage Calculator provides an estimate of the amount of water used by a washing machine based on load size, water temperature, cycle type, and machine efficiency. By using this calculator, consumers can make informed decisions about their water usage and potentially reduce their environmental impact and water bills.
