Quick guide
How to use this calculator
- Choose the analysis mode that matches the physical model before entering values.
- Enter properties, geometry, loads, states and coefficients from one consistent unit and sign convention.
- Use the intermediate outputs to audit the relationship, then retain the stated idealization before applying it.
Calculation method
Transparent engineering model
Conservation ledgers keep inputs and outputs explicit; affinity scales Q∝N, H∝N², P∝N³; chained efficiencies multiply.
The calculator evaluates only the declared relationship and preserves visitor-entered assumptions rather than selecting materials, factors, components or standards.
Worked example
Worked example
Increasing ideal pump speed by 20% raises flow 20%, head 44% and power about 72.8% under similarity assumptions.

Supported inputs
Precision and limits
Analysis, not approval
Transparent scenario arithmetic only. Equipment curves, controls, storage, transients, pinch design, tariffs, emissions and safety remain external.
Standards and properties
Material properties, allowable values, load combinations, safety factors, correlations, manufacturer data, codes and jurisdictional requirements are not supplied automatically.
Units and precision
Use one consistent unit basis. Results retain working precision but cannot be more accurate than the entered measurements and properties.
