Directly calculate pipe diameters through valves and fittings under a turbulent flow regime
Calculating pipe diameters through long, straight pipes is executed in classic fluid flow problems using traditional trial-and-error methods or by complex equations.
Accurately calculate flowrate through valves, fittings and pipe under a turbulent flow regime
Calculating flowrate through long, straight pipe in a zone of complete turbulence is easy using standard fluid mechanics equations.
