Input Power Delivered to Pump Calculator
Input Power Formula
Input Power (\( P_i \)):
\[ P_i = \frac{9.8 \times q \times h}{\xi_p} \]
Where:
- \( P_i \) is the power input delivered to the pump, in kilowatts (KW).
- \( q \) is the discharge rate, in cubic meters per second (m³/s).
- \( h \) is the total head, in meters (m).
- \( \xi_p \) is the pump efficiency, ranging from 0.20 to 0.75.
