dP Pressure Drop Calculator

dP Pressure Drop Calculator is a simple utility that helps you to perform pressure drop calculations for pipework.
The program sports a clean and straightforward interface that allows users to input several pipe data and automatically calculate the pipe volume and friction factor, then view the results.
The usage is very simple and the main window of the application is very intuitive. Simply specify the density, the dynamic viscosity and the flow rate parameters, then calculate the pressure drop pie and the estimated shear.
What's more, dP Pressure Drop Calculator notifies you when you input higher parameters according to the other specified data.
For example, the 'surface roughness' parameter can't be higher than five, but you can customize the values by changing the surface material. If you change it to glass or copper, the value will be automatically changed to the right configuration.
Even if dP Pressure Drop Calculator does not provide you with advanced features and with a more modern interface, it still comes in handy specially for electrical engineers who need to configure the water network of a new building, or change old pipes, as convenient.
The aforementioned application can be used by advanced users, as well as by beginners. It does not require complex Physics knowledge, because it automatically calculates each coefficient and notifies you when you input wrong data.
In any case, not all the values will be calculated at the first glance. If only the 'flow rate' and the 'density' coefficients are specified, the app will calculate only the 'Reynolds number', the 'pipe area', the 'average velocity of liquid' and the 'friction factor'. For further calculations, you need to add values for pipe length, valves and pressure loss.
Overall, dP Pressure Drop Calculator proves to be a reliable software utility that offers an intuitive working environment for calculating various pipe values.
