I have a well and need a pumping system. I am not getting much attention from the professionals that I have talked to, so I would like to learn a few things before they do come around. The only thing I know for sure is that I will be using a commerical single phase 10 KW diesel generator to power the pump. The elevation of the well site is about 1400 feet. The well is 850 feet deep (static level is much less, but I want to go the full depth), and I need to go another 100 feet vertically to reach the tank. The hole diameter is 6 inches, the well is rated at 50 GPM, and I need 15 GPM from the well.
What size submersible pump is needed? How is that calculated.
Who makes the best pumps?
Would using a 3 phase pump with a phase converter be better (e.g. wire cost and longevity)?
How is wire size calculated?
Thanks
