White goods companies strive continuously to upgrade their dishwashers. Lately a technique with pulsating spray pressure has appeared on the market. According to previous studies there is a direct correlation between the spray pressure and the cleaning performance. The same study also shows an opposite correlation between rotational speed of the washing arms and cleaning performance.  The purpose of this study is to investigate how pulsating spray pressure impacts the dishwasher’s performance. This is done by answering the questions how pulsating spray pressure impacts cleaning performance, the circulation pump’s electricity consumption, the water consumption and noise level. One more part of the goal is to give advice for further studies of pulsating spray pressure in dishwashers.  This is an experimental study where 6 different variants of pulsating spray pressure where compared against a reference case with constant spray pressure. The pulsation variants examined in the study differed in in the range of the rpm, the time for one pulsation cycle, and how long the rpm where kept constant at the outer position. All tests where done with a prototype of model Asko DB12441B. The cleaning performance where evaluated by photographing the dishes before and after the washing program and analyzing the pictures in computer programs. The electricity consumption was measured by logging the effect use of the pump every second. The water consumption was measured by adding or subtracting 1 dl water to the dishwasher manually. Both the maximum and average generation of noise was detected when the noise level was measured.  The result shows that pulsating spray pressure increased the cleaning performance for the lower basket, but not in the upper basket. With pulsating spray pressure, the electricity consumption could be lowered in all operating cases except one. No further addition of dish water was needed for pulsating spray pressure, with the measurement accuracy used in the experiments. The noise level was higher in all investigated operating cases with pulsating spray pressure.
