Pump sizing

Pump Sizing is a handy tool for industrial and domestic pump sizing and head calculation.

It's designed to help determining the head of a pumping system based on the system requirements.

With our easy-to-use interface, you can quickly and accurately calculate the static head, pipes losses, fitting losses and the overall head of your pump. Our app also includes a window to calculate the friction factor.

The calculation of pressure, velocity and elevation head requires the following inputs:

-Pressure head: liquid density, suction and discharge pressures

-Velocity head: suction and discharge velocities (the correction factor is taken 1)

-Elevation head: suction and discharge elevations

For pipes losses:

-Flow (total flow for suction pipe and branch flows for discharge branches pipes)

-Diameter

-Friction factor (Input or calculated)

-Length

For fittings losses:

-Flow

-Diameter

-Loss coefficient

Results are automatically generated when required inputs are filled.
