You need to define the equation for that.The Equation will include TDH, mass flow rate, and torque on different impeller surface like hub, shroud and blade surfaces.

Have a look at the turbo machinery macro in CFD-Post. It automates much of this stuff. Have a look in the tutorial examples for how to use it.
