Steam Leak has just been released!

This handy calculator allows a person to approximate the cost of a leak and the potential money that could be saved by repairing the leak in a set number of days. All you have to do is enter the steam pressure ( valid for 0.5 to 250 psig or 0.034 barg to 17 barg), the orifice/leak size (valid up to 1 inch or 25.4 mm) and the cost of your steam. Also, note that this calculation does not include the cost of the condensate that is lost which is an additional savings for getting the leak repaired.

This application allows you to perform the following calculations in both USCS and metric units:

1. The steam loss rate from a leak in a steam pipe (lb/h and kg/h) and the cost of the leak per hour

2. The total steam loss (klb = 1,000 lb and kkg = 1,000 kg) and the cost of the leak over a duration of days selected, up to 999 days.

Electric Power has just been released for the iPhone 3G/S.

***NOTE:   THIS APPLICATION HAS NOT BEEN TESTED ON THE iPod Touch — IT HAS ONLY BEEN TESTED ON THE iPhone 3GS***

This application allows you to perform the following calculations:

DC Circuits:  Calculate amps using HP, amps using kW, kW and HP

AC 1 Phase:  Calculate amps using HP, amps using kW, amps using kVA, kW, kVA and HP

AC 2 Phase 4 Wire:  Calculate amps using HP, amps using kW, amps using kVA, kW, kVA and HP

AC 3 Phase 3 Wire:  Calculate amps using HP, amps using kW, amps using kVA, kW, kVA and HP

Voltage Drop:  Enter the length and amperes, select the circuit type, conductor material and wire gauge

Power Factor Correction:  Calculate the required capacitor kVA based on the load, your existing power factor and the corrected power factor

Also included is a reference for 3 phase motor starters at 230 and 460V.  The horsepowers available are 0.5 hp to 150 hp.

Please leave feedback regarding this application at this site.  We will take this information into account for the future updates.

Bases on customer reviews, the pressure drop calculator has been updated to v1.1 to support imperial and metric units.  See below for the new screenshots.

Coming in January 2010 is an update for the famous Pressure Drop Calc for the iPhone.  It has been updated to include metric and imperial units along with some minor user interface updates.  Stay tuned over the next two weeks for your update!
