Pump Efficiency Calculator

Posted by Dinesh on

Use this simple hydraulics and waterworks calculator to calculate pump efficiency. Pump performance is measured in terms of the capacity that a pump can discharge against a given head and at a given efficiency.

Pump Efficiency Calculator

Formula:

Ep = (γ × Q × Ht) / Pi : [for SI units]
Ep = (γ × Q × Ht) / (bhp × 550) : [for U.S. customary units]

where,
  • γ - specific weight of water
  • Q - Capacity
  • Ht - total dynamic head
  • Pi - power input
  • bhp - brake horsepower
  • Ep - pump efficiency, dimensionless
