Working definition
Ratio of useful hydraulic power delivered by a pump to the power supplied to it.
In plain language
Ratio of useful hydraulic power delivered by a pump to the power supplied to it.
Why it matters
Pump Efficiency is useful because it separates one specific part of wildfire behaviour, exposure, operations or evidence from nearby concepts that can otherwise be mixed together.
η = hydraulic power ÷ input powerUse operating-point values and define the system boundary.
