ONLINE CALCULATIONS
-
Monachos Online Calculators from Monachos Engineering.
- Unit Master: converts over 1000 units from 11
categories
- Darcy - Weisbach calculator: calculates friction loss over a pipeline ,
using the popular Darcy Weisbach equation. Friction factor is computed
by the program using the Colebrook equation.
- Heating piping: calculates
the water flow required to transfer a given amount of heat energy and
the vice - versa , along with the pressure drop along the pipeline.
- Water hammer: calculates the water hammer effect on a pipeline
protected by an open tank , or a air vessel absorber under pressure.
- Voltage drop calculator: the voltage drop on a wire line is
calculated keeping in mind the temperature influence and the
inductance of the cable itself , also line current
given the voltage and electric power to transfer for 1 phase and 3
phase lines, as well as reverse calculation (given the
available line current - calculate the maximun electric power which
can be feeded).
- kVAR master: calculates the capacitors needed to
correct cos(f) of an installation.
