Using conversion factor psi to meters/100m=

2.1430 See below**

** 1. psi to feet x2.307 gives feet of head loss per 100ft

2. multiply product by .3048m/ft to get meters of head lost per 100 feet
3. multiply that product by 3.048 to convert loss/100ft to loss/100m

Pump Power Requirement Calculator (Issue 2 20-06-04)

This spreadsheet allows the user to calculate the power requirement (Watts and Horse Power) to pump water from
collector tank up to a reservoir tank, for a series of pipe diameters.
Input data is marked in red
Pipe Length (m) =
Difference in height between collector tank and reservoir tank (m) =
Pump efficiency (%) =
Gravitational Acceleration (m/s/s) =
Density of water (Kg/m3) =
