Zusammenfassung
This communication presents the development of a freeware for mobile devices (Smartphone and Pocket PC). It was developed with a LabVIEW program, and enables engineers and installers to calculate commercial diameters to be used in laterals of drip irrigation, without the need for being at the personal computer. Input data required: drippers flow rates, number of drippers, spacing between the drippers, medium pressure in the lateral and pressure tolerance. As results, it shows commercial diameters that can be used with diode LED, maximum and minimum pressures for each lateral, and a graphic that shows, on a comparative, wether it exceeds each lateral of the pressure tolerance or not.
