When we deal with any mechanical engineering system, it needs great consumption of electricity and in the eraof energy crisis, effective use of energy sources is must. Country like China and India are the biggest users of energysources and mechanical equipments like pump has very wide range of applications in industry as well as domestically. Inorder to save energy one of the most preferred ways is to improve performance of the device for the same energyconsumption. In this work focus is on the impeller of the mixed flow type submersible pump. In order to improve theefficiency of the pump need to work at the design level and find the parameters that affects the design and performanceof the pump. Here the design of impeller of the mixed flow type submersible pump with the best efficiency point iscompared with the existing impeller layout and it is found that the change in inlet and exit angle of blade and reducingnumber of blade have significant improvement on the performance of the pump. This improved design impeller will bechecked by CFD analysis with existing impeller with same boundary condition.
