A washing machine has 4 parts: A drum to hold the clothes, a motor to cause agitation of the drum, a pump to force water and solvent through the washing machine, and a filter for the water and solvent. In order to optimize the washing machine, all 4 of these parts must be sized correctly so that on component doesn’t over-‐power another component, unnecessary energy isn’t wasted to run the washer, and the washer will still work if the user forces far too many clothes into the drum. The charts below show how the sizing of the pump and filter affect each other and the effectiveness of the washer.
The charts above show how the size of the filter will affect the flow rate as well as the pressure drop required from the pump. The filter selection will be determined on what size particles we want to remove from the clothes. Once the filter size is selected, the above charts will determine our pump requirement, which can be matched to a pump model below. The smaller the particles, the larger the pump is required. Look how hard it is to clean a smoker’s clothes!
