Solar Pump Excel Computation

The Mabuhay Solar Pump Irrigation Project aims to provide 0.02029 cubic meters per second or 321.60 gallons per minute of water for 6 hours per day from a source 10.46 meters above and 60 meters from the pumphouse. The total dynamic head is calculated to be 36.28786 feet or 11.06 meters based on the vertical distance and estimated friction head loss through plastic piping. The project aims to find a submersible solar pump that can meet the required discharge rate against this total dynamic head.
