EQ_pump_p(): power of a pump

About:

Calculate the power of a pump, expressed in Watt (W).

Module: Equipment

Function:

EQ_pump_p(q, h, rho, y)

Parameters:

• q, flow - m3/s
• h, elevation head - m
• rho, volumic massa - kg/m3
• y, pump yield.

Sample code

from Equipment import*

q = float(input("q (m3/s): "))
h = float(input("h (m): "))
rho = float(input("rho (kg/m3): "))
y = float(input("y: "))

p = EQ_pump_p(q, h, rho, y)

print("p:",p/1000.0,"kW")

Input data:

q (m3/s): 0.25
h (m): 50.0
rho (kg/m3): 1000.0
y: 0.8

Results:

p: 153.22890625 kW
