Estimate hydraulic and input power for a pump.
PRELIMINARY RESULT
Hydraulic power4.41 kW
Estimated input power: 6.31 kW
- Hydraulic power
- 4.41 kW
- Estimated input power
- 6.31 kW
Calculation detail
Formula: P = ρgQH / η
Hydraulic power is based on water density; input power accounts for the specified pump efficiency.
FORMULA VERIFICATION
Units, scope and reference
Reference: Hydraulic-power relation P = ρgQH/η; manufacturer curves govern selection.
Internal unit basis: kg/m³, m/s², m³/s, m. Outputs: kW.
Valid conditions: Positive flow/head; 0 < efficiency ≤ 100%.
Limitations: Water density only; no NPSH, system curve or motor efficiency.
