The methods fanEfficiency and fanTotalEfficiency are the same. See the Pull Request and associated issue below for background. Impeller efficiency is not an explicit input in EnergyPlus for fans (or pumps), thus OpenStudio does not have a method for it.
https://github.com/NREL/OpenStudio/pull/3204
So, this code should work...
fan_tot_eff = fan.fanTotalEfficiency
fan_mtr_eff = fan.motorEfficiency
fan_imp_eff = fan_tot_eff / fan_mtr_eff
For pumps, I believe EnergyPlus assumes a constant impeller efficiency of 0.78.
