Pump Efficiency Calculator
Calculate pump efficiency, energy consumption, and operating costs. Optimize your pumping systems for maximum efficiency and energy savings.
Step 1: Pump Parameters
Understanding Pump Efficiency
Pump efficiency is the ratio of hydraulic power delivered to the fluid to the power input. Typical pump efficiencies range from 50% to 85% depending on pump type and size.
Step 2: Operating Conditions
Optimizing Pump Performance
Proper pump sizing, regular maintenance, and efficient operating points can significantly reduce energy consumption. Oversized pumps operating at low efficiency can waste substantial energy.

Energy Cost Breakdown
Pump Efficiency Formula
Efficiency = (Hydraulic Power ÷ Input Power) × 100%
Hydraulic Power (kW) = (Flow × Head × Density × 9.81) ÷ (3.6 × 10⁶). Higher efficiency means less energy wasted as heat and noise.
