GPH to HP Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Horsepower (HP) is:

\[ HP = \frac{GPH \cdot P}{1714 \cdot E} \]

Where:

GPH to HP: A calculation used to determine the horsepower required to pump a certain number of gallons per hour at a specific pressure and pump efficiency. This calculation is crucial in various industries, including agriculture, manufacturing, and water treatment, where efficient pump operation is essential for optimal performance and energy savings.

Let's say the gallons per hour (GPH) is 500, the pressure (P) is 100 psi, and the pump efficiency (E) is 0.85. Using the formula:

\[ HP = \frac{500 \times 100}{1714 \times 0.85} \]

We get:

\[ HP \approx 34.29 \, \text{HP} \]

So, the horsepower required is approximately 34.29 HP.
