A submersible motor pump includes a water jacket having a circulation passage of a coolant, a centrifugal impeller for circulating the coolant, a suction passage configured to provide fluid communication between the circulation passage and a fluid inlet of the centrifugal impeller, and a discharge passage configured to provide fluid communication between a fluid outlet of the centrifugal impeller and the circulation passage. The discharge passage includes a heat-exchange passage formed by two wall surfaces, one of which is constituted by a member which contacts a liquid conveyed by a main impeller. The heat-exchange passage has a circular shape extending radially outwardly from the fluid outlet of the centrifugal impeller. The heat-exchange passage includes at least one axial passage section having a length component in an axial direction of the rotational shaft.
