About Piping Friction Loss Calculato Android App
Oxcore Engineering solves the Colebrook-White equation through a user-friendly interface. This program calculates the friction head loss for piping and displays the associated results at the desired fluid temperature. A valve and fitting database is included as well, so the user can include the minor losses. This program works for all single phase homogeneous fluids.
The Colebrook-White equation is solved utilizing an iterative algorithm to find the friction factor. The Darcy-Weisbach equation is then used to determine the head loss for the associated friction factor. The calculator works in both Metric and Imperial units and the user can select a preferred unit system. Water density and water viscosity are automatically calculated from built-in functions that allow for substantial time savings vs conventional methods.
The program also allows for calculations using liquids other than water. The user can enter the desired density and dynamic or kinematic viscosity for any particular single phase homogeneous liquid.
The user interface currently supports English, German & Spanish. Instructions and related information is included to help the user complete the input fields correctly. The required inputs are as follows:
Temperature
Fluid Flow Rate
Absolute Roughness of Pipe
Internal Pipe Diameter
Pipe Length
Pipe Fittings (optional)
A pipe fittings and valve database system is included in the program to compute the minor losses. A table is provided with sample K-Values for various fittings. Pipe Fittings and Valves can be added, deleted & changed as needed.
The following input units can be selected and used for calculations:
Temperature: fahrenheit, rankine, celsius, kelvin
Density: lb/ft^3, lb/in^3, g/cm^3, kg/m^3, specific gravity
Dynamic Viscosity: lbf*s/ft^2E-5, centipoise (cP)
Kinematic Viscosity: centistokes (cSt)
Internal Pipe Diameter: inches, feet, mm, cm
Flowrate: gallon per minute (gpm), barrels per hour (bph), barrels per day (bpd), ft^3/hr, liter per minute (lpm), m^3/hr
Pipe Length: feet, inches, miles, meters, centimeters, kilometers
Abs Roughness: inches, feet, mm, cm
The program outputs the following information:
Mass Flow Rate
Friction Factor
Dynamic Viscosity
Kinematic Viscosity
Reynold's Number
Water Density
Flow Regime
Liquid Velocity
Velocity Head
Fitting Losses
Head Loss
Pressure Loss
Hydraulic Horsepower
The program is valid for water temperature range: 32F (0C) - 212F (100C)
The range for the Absolute Roughness is user defined with a reference table included.
