Centrifugal pump efficiency calculation | Engineering Skills

*Pump Efficiency vs Flow Rate* Pump efficiency and flow rate are closely related. Here's a brief overview: - *Pump Efficiency*: Measures how well a pump converts input energy into useful work. - *Flow Rate*: Volume of fluid pumped per unit time. *Key Points:* 1. *Best Efficiency Point (BEP)*: Flow rate with highest pump efficiency. 2. *Efficiency Curve*: Graph showing pump efficiency vs. flow rate. *Importance:* 1. *Energy Savings*: Operating near BEP reduces energy consumption. 2. *Pump Longevi

💉 IV Rate Calculation A lot of pumps will do this math for us when we program them but we should always know the math to double check for accuracy! The MAR is a good resource for pump rates too. Let’s try another calculation. Let’s say the provider ordered a 4 g Magnesium replacement IV in 100 mL saline to be given over 4 hours. What will the infusion rate be?
