Borewell Submersible Pump Calculator

Head, power and stage estimate for a borewell submersible from depth, tank height and flow.

0
Total head (m)
0
Power needed (ฮท 55%) (kW)
0
Typical stages (โ‰ˆ11 m/stage)

Use the drawn-down pumping level, not the standing level โ€” heavy pumping can drop it 10โ€“20 m. Multistage radial pumps add ~10โ€“12 m per stage at 1 L/s class.

Formula

TDH = pumping level + tank height + h_f(32 mm column); P = ฯgQH/ฮท

Borewell Submersible Pump Calculator is a free borewell pump for pump engineers, plumbers and plant designers โ€” instant, accurate and 100% client-side, with the governing formula and reference shown next to the result so the number can be defended, not just quoted.

About Borewell Submersible Pump Calculator

Head, power and stage estimate for a borewell submersible from depth, tank height and flow. The calculation implements TDH = pumping level + tank height + h_f(32 mm column); P = ฯgQH/ฮท (IS 8034 โ€” submersible pumpsets). Use the drawn-down pumping level, not the standing level โ€” heavy pumping can drop it 10โ€“20 m. Multistage radial pumps add ~10โ€“12 m per stage at 1 L/s class.

Frequently asked questions

What formula does the Borewell Submersible Pump Calculator use?+

It computes TDH = pumping level + tank height + h_f(32 mm column); P = ฯgQH/ฮท, per IS 8034 โ€” submersible pumpsets. The formula is displayed under the result.

What should I keep in mind when using this calculator?+

Use the drawn-down pumping level, not the standing level โ€” heavy pumping can drop it 10โ€“20 m. Multistage radial pumps add ~10โ€“12 m per stage at 1 L/s class.

Can I use this for pump selection?+

Use it to establish the duty (flow, head, NPSH, power) and then pick a pump whose curve passes through that point near best efficiency. The tool gives you the engineering numbers a supplier will ask for.

Is the Borewell Submersible Pump Calculator free to use?+

Yes โ€” completely free, no sign-up, no limits. It runs client-side in your browser, so inputs stay private and results are instant even on slow connections.
