FAQ
What is Fluid Pressure Drop used for?
Fluid Pressure Drop is used to compute the energy loss involved in the transmission of fluids for industrial applications. It helps engineers analyze pressure loss in pipes, valves, and fittings.
What fluids can Fluid Pressure Drop calculate pressure loss for?
Fluid Pressure Drop supports fifteen common fluids including Air, Steam, Water, and various gases and oils. It also allows users to create and save custom fluid properties.
Does Fluid Pressure Drop support custom fluids?
Yes, users can create custom fluids by inputting their property data. This allows for pressure loss calculations for fluids not included in the pre-defined list.
Can Fluid Pressure Drop calculate pressure losses in valves and fittings?
Yes, a dedicated section allows users to compute pressure losses in common industrial valves and fittings, such as globe valves, gate valves, elbows, and reducers.
What pipe specifications can be used with Fluid Pressure Drop?
Users can select from fifteen pipe schedules (10-160) and various materials of construction like Steel, SS, PVC, and Concrete. The app provides corresponding inside and outside diameters based on nominal diameter.
How does Fluid Pressure Drop handle different units of measurement?
The app allows users to choose different units of measurement for both flow and pressure drop. This selection can be made under the SI or USCS unit standards while choosing the fluid.
What is the price of Fluid Pressure Drop?
Fluid Pressure Drop is a paid application, priced at $4.99. There are no in-app purchases or subscriptions required.
How often is Fluid Pressure Drop updated?
The latest version, 2.3, was last updated on April 25, 2025. This indicates a developer actively maintaining and improving the application.
