Square feet suggests a flat area, like the floor plan of the pool, which would be 16 x 32 = 512 square feet. Like you'd measure walls for tiles or paper etc.
As you've given 3 dimensions, sounds like your after the cubic capacity/volume of the pool, in which case your looking at cubic feet (same as flat area above, but with the added depth to go from flat 2d, to 3d (2 vs 3 dimensions)), which would be 16 x 32 x 10 = 5,120 cubic feet.
You've got five (5) numbers to average.
First you add them together:
37+76+92+96+81=382
Then you divide that by the number of numbers you started with:
382 divided by 5 is 76.4.
Why does this work?
Imagine you had a stick 382" long and you wanted to divide it into 5 equal parts. Easy enough, you just divide the length by 5. But what if you didn't know the stick was 382" long? And what if you only had an 8' tape measure (96")?
One way is to measure off several lengths that are within the range of your tape measure and put a pencil mark at each length, then add up all the lengths.
So, if you put a pencil mark at 81" from one end of the stick, and then another pencil mark 76" from the first mark, then another pencil mark 92" from that mark, then another mark 96" from that mark, you'd find out that the last mark was only 37" from the other end of the really long stick.
So, you'd add all those measured lengths up to get the total length which is 382". But you don't want different lengths, you want equal (or average) lengths. So you divide the total length by 5.
You're not going to be able to do this with just a known Horse Power.
There are 3 elements to the equation, with any two, you can work out the third.
If you want to know how the amperage, you will need to know the voltage and wattage of the motor. I imagine that you already know the voltage (It's going to be 220V or 110 volt)
Watts divided by volts = Amps
Examples:
A 220v 1000 watt motor (1000 divided by 220) will draw 4.55 amps A 110v 800 watt motor (800 divided by 110) will draw 7.27 amps
Bear in mind that most washing machines have a couple of windings for wash and spin. As an average, the was winding will usually be about 500 watts to spin and about 250 watts to wash. ALSO, bear in mind that if you are using this data for a WASHING MACHINE, then there is a water heating element in there too and that draws about 2Kw (2000 watts)
Dont just take this as read, you DO need to check wattages, but, working on what I have just said, the max consumption on a 220V machine will look like this:
At Spin, with a 500 Watt consumption: (500/220) = 2.3 amps While Washing with a 250 watt consumption: (250/220) = 1.14 amps
Consider that the WASH and HEAT may be running at the same time. 2Kw heating (2000/220) = 9.1 amps PLUS 1.14 amps for the motor - Total wattage 10.24 amps
Watts / Volts = Amps Amps x Volts = Watts Watts divided by amps = Volts
What you appear to be asking is the volume of your Pool in gallons! Here is the formula and resulting answer:
Length X Width X average Depth X 7.5 (for rectangluar) (or 5.9 for a circle or oval)
You need to know 3 values:
The overall length in feet (assuming 42 on your note) The overall Width in feet (assuming 16 on your note) The average depth, take a depth measurement at 3-4 locations equally apart along the length from deep to shallow (or vice-versa) (example might 8ft, 6ft, 4ft, 3ft) add these measurements together and then divide the total sum by the number of depth measurements (example 4) this will be the average (example 5.25)
So the resulting formula would read 42 x 16 x 5.25 x 7.5 = 26,460 gallons for the example
So if your pool's average depth is about the same, then your volume is rounded to about 26,500
Your shock product should clearly state how much one bag will treat a given volume (example 10,000 gals) for regular treatment or shocking. Usually shocking involves doubling or even tripling the normal maintenance dosage, but check the product labels and instructions for manufacturer's recommendation.
Most likely what got burnt is the bridge rectifier in the power supply section of the electronic circuit. This usually takes the shape of either a single 4-legged IC, or a group of 4 rectifying diodes connected in a bridge configuration. If you disassemble the unit to which the power cord is attached & trace the circuit starting from the terminals of the power chord, you can easily identify it. You will need to replace the 4-legged IC or the 4 rectifying diodes. You will also need to replace the fuse, since it is usually likely that it gets burnt if the unit is attached to 220V instead of 110V.
220 is just putting two 110 volt circuits together. You should read only 110 volts from each leg to ground. But you should read 220 between both legs. Measuring between two legs that are supposed to be 220 and you read nothing than you are not measuring the differences. This means you are only getting 110 volts. Check your units data plate and make sure you need 220. Usually the condenser fan on a split system is 110 volts and the condenser fan is 220 volts. Which motor are you checking?
ok. lets make some assumtions. You must be of some electrical background to take a measurement such as 240v 21v. I will also assume you are measuring to ground (the half U).
I will also assume you are measuring at the wall recepticle(plug on wall / or even in the back of the range itself if no plugin)
1) four colors there. red, black, white, bare. or u-ground, middle-white, either side red/black.
2) measure from ground (U) to either side. should show 110v each.
3) measure from middle blade to either side and it should show 110v each
4) if either of those reads are not that, then you can look for a nail or a sharp edge that has poked through or cut through the range cable between the panel box and the range.
5) when you find the problem call an electrician in to fix it. it shouldn't cost much as you have done all the leg work.
6) one more thing- make sure the power at the panel box is 220v. I'm not sure how you did that this far, but you must use extreem caution as not to get zaped.
CAUTION must be used with cheap meters, as they can fail also.
7) if the break is close to one end, the electrcian will probebley add on some new cable and you will be ok.
call back with more info if you want :)
