To determine the required electric motor power, the hydraulic power for each pump was calculated based on their respective pressures and flow rates, totaling 905 W. Accounting for a system efficiency of 75%, the required motor power increases to approximately 1207 W, or about 1.62 HP. To ensure reliable operation and accommodate standard ratings, a 2 HP electric motor is recommended for the system. This provides adequate capacity for both pumps and accounts for potential load variations.
