Refrigerant Piping Design Carrier
winget install --id=Carrier.RefrigerantPipingDesign -e The Refrigerant Piping Design program determines the minimum pipe size required to deliver refrigerant between the compressor, condenser and evaporator within specified pressure loss limits. The program will also size vertical risers so that oil entrainment is assured.
Refrigerant Piping Design (RPD) is a software tool designed to determine the minimum pipe size required for refrigerant systems, ensuring efficient operation within specified pressure loss limits. The program calculates optimal sizing for suction, hot gas discharge, and liquid lines while also addressing vertical risers to ensure oil entrainment.
Key Features:
- Sizes piping for common refrigerants R-22, R-134a, and R-717.
- Automatically selects pipe sizes based on specified pressure drop limits.
- Computes minimum capacity requirements for oil entrainment in vertical risers.
- Operates in both English and S.I. metric units for global applicability.
- Includes an extensive online help system for user guidance.
Audience & Benefit:
Ideal for HVAC engineers, contractors, and technicians designing refrigeration systems, RPD streamlines the piping design process by eliminating manual calculations and providing accurate results tailored to system operating conditions. By ensuring proper pipe sizing, the software enhances system efficiency and reliability while reducing installation errors. It can be installed via winget for easy setup.
