Hydronic Calculator
Explanation of Function
Hydronic Calculator easily performs calculations based on the relationship between flow, differential pressure (∆p),
Kv-value, power and differential temperature (∆T).
This function also gives guidance in selecting pipes and valves when designing hydronic systems and enables
unit conversions.
Hydronic Calculator in TA-SCOPE provides the same functionality as HyTools which originates from the
Calculation Disc (Balancing Nomogram/Red disc).
Calculate Flow-Kv-Dp (∆p)
Calculate Power-Flow-DT (∆T)
Calculate Flow-Valve Setting-Dp (∆p)
Calculate Flow/Kv/Dp (∆p)/Power/DT (∆T)
1 Select
Hydronic Calculator from the main menu, press enter.
2 Select
calculation option:
Calculate Flow-Kv-Dp (∆p)
Calculate Power-Flow-DT (∆T)
3 Chose variable to be calculated from the Calculate drop down list, press enter to display or cycle the list with
.
4 Enter values for the two other variables.
5 Result is automatically displayed.
6 Switch to calculate another variable, press function key
or or .
7 Return to Hydronic Calculator main menu by pressing function key Quit.
Calculate Valve Opening
1 Select
Calculate valve setting (red disk) press enter.
2 Select Setting from the Calculate drop down list.
3 Enter values for flow and differential pressure (∆p).
4 Select valve size from the drop down list, press enter.
5 Define valve type from the drop down list, press enter.
6 Result is automatically displayed.
7 Switch to calculate another variable, press function key
or or .
8 Return to Hydronic Calculator main menu by pressing function key Quit.
