Voltage Drop Calculator - This program calculates Voltage Drop on a cable , given the Electric Power of
the consumption , or the line current. Enter problem data (electric power, wire length (1 way), cos (f)
e.t.c.). Then raise the cable size, until you see an acceptable voltage drop (3%). Influence of temperature
is taken in account.
The program is quite accurate, especially for cables up to 35mm2, where inductance is negligible.
For cables larger than 35mm2, voltage drop is calculated by taking in account inductance of cable
approximately.
Please note that this calculation is quite accurate for voltages up to 1000V, with cables lying in the open
air, but just an approximation for greater voltages, or cables buried in the ground.
You must also consider that the program does not take into account special situations.

Q stands for pump flow capacity in m3/h.
h is the discharge height in m
is the motor - pump system total efficiency factor (0.50 ~ 0.70).
2. Lifts , elevators and cranes.
Motors for these applications are calculated using the following equation
x 9.81
where :
G is the maximum load to be lifted in kp (1kp = 9.81N).
v is the elevation velocity in m/s.
is the motor - pulley system total efficiency factor (0.50 ~ 0.70).
When calculating person lifts G we must add 75kg (=kp) for each person.
If there is a contraweight we must divide the work load by 2.
For a 10 person lift with a contraweight , the load for the equation is
10 x 75kp = 750kp / 2 = 375kp
3. Fan - compressor motors.
Motors for these applications are calculated using the following equation

x 27.7777
where :
Q is the air flow in m3/h.
Dp is pressure raise in bar =105 Pa (N/m2).
is the motor - fan (or compressor) system total efficiency factor (0.50 ~ 0.70).
