Engineering converters
Unit conversion and the sizing calculations that come up on a plant floor. Everything runs on your own device, so nothing you type is sent anywhere.
Units
Vessels & plate
Tank & vessel calculator
Diameter and height from capacity, or capacity from dimensions. Dished, conical and flat ends, in metres and feet.
Open âMS & SS plate calculator
How many steel sheets a tank consumes, counted as rolled courses, with plate area and weight.
Open âInsulation thickness & heat loss
Thickness to hold a safe surface temperature, plus heat loss and what it costs over a year.
Open âFlow & power
Steam & boiler duty
Heat duty, boiler horsepower, equivalent evaporation and fuel burn from the steam a plant needs.
Open âPump head & power
Hydraulic, shaft and motor power from flow and head, with the next standard motor frame.
Open âPipe size & pressure drop
Velocity, Reynolds number and friction loss for a liquid line, with the bore checked against practice.
Open âMotor & gearbox selection
kW and HP, gearbox ratio, shaft torque and the design power to select a drive on.
Open âHeat exchanger area
Surface area from duty, temperatures and coefficient, with the LMTD worked out.
Open âBelt conveyor capacity & power
Tonnes an hour from belt width, speed and material, with the power the drive has to deliver.
Open âHow this works
Every sizing rule, formula and assumption behind these tools is written up in the documentation â including what they deliberately leave out.
Why these run in your browser
Most online converters upload your file to a server, convert it there, and hand back a download â which means your document sits on someone else's machine, however briefly. These tools use the browser's own image and file APIs instead. Nothing leaves your device, there is no queue, and no file size limit beyond your available memory.
