Abstract

The paper presents the development of an Android application under JavaScript source code for the design of the diameter of simple pipes from the model proposed by Darcy-Weisbach for load losses and Colebrook-White for the calculation of the coefficient of friction, for fluids with number of Reynolds greater than 4000. Aside calculating the theoretical diameter, the application determines the flow velocity, friction losses, local losses, coefficient of friction, unit loss, and Reynolds Number. The results calculated by the application were validated against the results obtained through the tool for Excel analysis (Goal Seek) and the model for simple pipes made in Epanet. Similarly, the application was implemented by students of Civil Engineering Program of  La Gran Colombia University in the academic spaces of Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics based on different exercises proposed in books about Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics, this served as a basis to validate the results from different hydraulic scenarios. Finally, the application is available for free on the Play Store (Google), under the name of "Design of Pressure Pipes. Darcy-Weisbach.".
