Steam calculation App

Based on Version 3 of its SE-1 engineering calculation software, steam specialist TLV Euro Engineering has developed TLV ToolBox, an iPhone App that is available as a free download from the Apple App Store and a version for Google's Android mobile operating system will be available in the coming months.

The iPhone-optimised App has been developed for Apple's iOS 5 mobile operating system and offers field engineers some of the power of TLV's Windows-based SE-1 software on a handheld smart phone.

Features include standard unit conversions; steam tables; steam pipe sizing (by velocity, flow rate and pressure loss); velocity and flow rates through a pipe; condensate pipe sizing; direct/indirect heat loads; continual/batch heat loads; a KV calculator, and flow rates through orifice or valve.

The TLV ToolBox App is available in English, French, German, and Japanese initially. It is compatible with major pipe schedules (DIN, ANSI, JIS) and all major imperial and metric units.
