How to Use the “Water Collection Calculator”

Introduction: If you're looking to collect rainwater from your roof, the Water Collection Calculator is a valuable tool. This calculator helps you to determine the amount of water you can collect from your roof based on three primary factors: roof area, average annual rainfall, and collection efficiency. By utilizing this calculator, you can make informed decisions about the design and installation of your rainwater harvesting system.

Instructions for Utilizing the Calculator:

To use the Water Collection Calculator, you need to fill out three input fields: roof area, average annual rainfall, and collection efficiency. The roof area is the total surface area of your roof that can collect water. The average annual rainfall is the amount of rainfall in millimeters that you can expect to fall on your roof in a year. Lastly, the collection efficiency is the percentage of rainwater that your system can collect.

Once you've inputted these values, the Water Collection Calculator will output the amount of water that you can collect from your roof in liters per year.

“Water Collection Calculator” formula:

The Water Collection Calculator formula calculates the amount of water that you can collect from your roof based on the following formula:

water collected = (roof area * rainfall * collection efficiency) / 1000

Illustrative Example:

Let's say you have a roof area of 100 square meters, an average annual rainfall of 500 millimeters, and a collection efficiency of 70 percent. To calculate the amount of water that you can collect from your roof, you can use the Water Collection Calculator formula:

  • water collected = (100 * 500 * 70) / 1000
  • water collected = 35,000 / 1000
  • water collected = 35 liters per year

Illustrative Table Example:

Roof AreaAverage Annual RainfallCollection EfficiencyWater Collected
50 m²400 mm60%12 liters per year
75 m²600 mm80%36 liters per year
100 m²500 mm70%35 liters per year
125 m²700 mm90%78 liters per year

By using the Water Collection Calculator, you can calculate the amount of water that you can collect from your roof based on the roof area, average annual rainfall, and collection efficiency. With this information, you can design and install a rainwater harvesting system that meets your needs.
