Sprinklers net calculation 2

[RicardoLeitao]

Where can I find free software for this purpose?

Here's what it should allow me to do:
-Define a branched net whith holes;
-Establish the holes pressure/outgoing flow relation;

Here's what would be great if it would allow me to do:
-Define the minimun outgoing flow [sig][/sig]

Don't know if free software exists.

You've already consulted the Automatic Sprinkler System Handbook and/or contacted Robert Solomon of the NFPA? [sig]<p>Steve Grzywa<br><a href=mailto:sgrzywa@citgo.com>sgrzywa@citgo.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> [/sig]

I am a fire protection engineer of 35 years. Believe me there is no such thing as &quot;free&quot; software for fire sprinkler hydraulics. A good software program is Hass (770) 934-8423. Simple calculations can also be done in longhand. A good book to read for simple calculations is &quot;Sprinkler Hydraulics&quot; by Harold S. Wass Jr. It can be purchased from Industrial Risk Mutual Insurance.

Try FluidFlow software, I've a free demo of it! You can download but I don't remember the site.
