Kidde Fire Systems - Flow Calculation Software 4.0

Kidde Fire Systems – Flow Calculation Software

A specialized engineering tool for designing and validating fire suppression piping networks using Kidde Fire Systems equipment. The software models complex pipe layouts, calculates agent flow and pressure, sizes nozzles and orifices, estimates discharge times and agent quantities, and checks design constraints against manufacturer data and common industry practices. It streamlines submittals with clear, auditable reports, helping engineers optimize designs, reduce rework, and accelerate approvals.

Key capabilities:

• Hydraulic flow and pressure calculations across branched networks
• Nozzle/orifice sizing and cylinder selection guidance based on hazard parameters
• Pressure drop, flow balancing, and end-of-line pressure verification
• Discharge time and minimum nozzle pressure checks
• Support for elevations, temperature adjustments, fittings, and equivalent lengths
• Multi-zone modeling, including selector valves and long pipe runs
• Submittal-ready outputs: calculation summaries, equipment lists, and formatted reports
• What-if analysis to compare design options and optimize material use

Ideal for:

• Fire protection engineers and consultants
• System designers and contractors
• Reviewers and authorities having jurisdiction seeking transparent, reproducible calculations

Note: Always confirm final designs against current Kidde documentation and applicable codes and standards.
