John, it is you who continually makes global generalizations versus facts.
Show us all where the GE motors (or any motor for that matter) is only 30 percent efficient. This is just a random figure you pulled out of the air, that you thought would prove your point.
Show us the data indicating rpms of the older GE DW motor versus the newer PSC motors. (maybe the are the same, maybe not--it would be interesting to see)
Show us your data that proves GE had the "most inefficient motor ever put in a dishwasher." Maybe it's true, maybe it isn't. Let's prove it, to everyone, and quite making up things.
Even if it is true that in the entire history of the dishwasher, this is the most inefifficient motor ever made. GE still managed to outperform Maytag, KitchenAid and Whirlpool in washing performance as per mid 1980's performance data from Consumer Reports. If I recall correctly, GE's did this with less current draw, for the motor than the Maytag RR. I am not sure what the KitchenAid and Whirlpools motors drew, but probably very close to, if not exceeding GE's 5.5 amps.'
Also, if GE wasn't capable of washing dishes/g;assware in the corner of their upper racks, this would have downrated their performance scores by Consumer Reports and would most certainly been mentioned by CU.
No, my friend, a GE DW motor is not putting out almost 500 watts of heat energy. Can you imagine a 500 watt heating element in that small enclosed space beneath a dishwasher glowing for close to an hour?
Go back to back issues of Consumer Reports and look at the repair ratings for General Electric dishwashers for the 1970 through the 1980's--impressively good.
I have nothing against the newer 1.8 amp China-made PSC motors. I think they are better than Frigidaire's and some of the other brands. I got one in my kitchen right now, but i don't like it as well as the motor in my GSD 2800 in my kitchentette. And I get better washability in the 2800.
Yes, water does deflectm and change direction when it hits a stationary object. To say water doesn't deflect, is one of the most ignorant statements I have ever heard you make. When an object or fluid with a given trajectory encounters another object with mass, especially with equal or greater mass, a change in the trajectory will occur. You should have learned this in Physics 101.
If this didn't occur, water would not enter up into glassware when its at an angle. A colloquial term for the change of trajectory, is called splashing.
Remember the video, John, of the impeller dishwasher that one of our members posted on this site. When there were no plates in the lower rack, water coverage on the top rack was close to nill.
When the member put plates in the lower rack, the water was directed (deflected) to the upper rack with impressive force.

But no doubt it was GE that started my interests in appliances and consumer electronics. It was always fun to toy around with their products.
