This question really belongs in the pump forum.
But that said, NPSH is measured for a specific pump design and fluid.
There is no general calculation for it, it is part of the pump specifications.
Now you can calculate how much NPSH you have available in your system in order to see if it is enough for the pump that you have selected.
