Pipeflex - Piping Engineering
This app was developed to aid piping engineers, designers and students. It come with the following modules:
✔ Database Search
- used to search for pipe properties and dimensions (ASME B36.10); pipe fittings, like elbows, tees and crosses, up to 36" (ASME B36.9); and flanges, which include blind, slip on, threaded, welded neck, socket welding and lapped (ASME B16.5).✔ Pipe Thickness
- used to find the pipe thickness needed to withstand the inner pressure (based on ASME B31.1 and ASME B31.4).✔ Pipe Diameter
- used to calculate the pipe diameter needed to carry the fluid with the designed flow, this module uses the pressure loss equations to find the diameter.✔ Project Management
- a module that store all the results from calculations generated by the modules. It can also generate a pdf file report of your projects.✔ Unit Converter module are also being developed.✔ Calculator with built-in piping equations and database.✔ 45° Pipe Cross
- used to calculate the linear distance between pipes when one cross another using a 45° Elbow.✔ Support Spacing
- module that calculate the maximum span between the piping supports.✔ Pump Power
- calculate the power needed by the pump and the shaft power delivered by it.✔ Stress Analysis
- this module comes in three sub-modules: stress analysis in "L" pipeline system, in "U" pipeline system and "Z" pipeline system. Maybe there'll be a forth one, as I'm developing a module that will use the finite element method (FEM) to calculate the stresses.✔ Pressure Vessel
- this module have two sub-modules: pressure vessel head (calculate the following types of head: ellipsoidal, hemispherical, torispherical, conical and toriconical) and pressure vessel shell (calculate the following types of shell: cylindrical and spherical), both calculated using ASME Section VIII Division I.✔ Bolt Torque calculation for flanged connections, based in the ASME PCC-1 standard code.
This app uses both SI (International Unit System) and US (United States Unit Systm, or Imperial Unit System).

Really good for quick calculations. There are few bugs, but engineers can easily catch these. Nice software to use for Basic Engineering.
