Booster pumps can significantly impact the overall efficiency of a system by reducing energy losses and increasing the pressure of the fluid being transported. By increasing the pressure, booster pumps enable the system to operate at a higher efficiency, reducing the energy required to transport the fluid. Additionally, booster pumps can help to reduce pipe friction losses, which can further improve system efficiency. However, the efficiency of the booster pump itself must also be considered, as an inefficient pump can negate any gains in system efficiency.
