The volume of the pool is 18 X 10 X h where his the height(depth) of the pool this will give 180h m^3.
\n" ); document.write( "The flow is 0.6 m^3 per minute.
\n" ); document.write( "This flow has to 'spread' over the area of the pool surface.
\n" ); document.write( "Thus the height that the flow 'covers' is given by
\n" ); document.write( "h = \"0.6%2F180\"m/min
\n" ); document.write( "thus h = \"1%2F300\"m/min
\n" ); document.write( "or h = \"1%2F3\"cm/min (this is 1cm every 3 minutes or 20cm every hour)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
