As you design sprinkler systems, HydroCalc™ lets you
eliminate many hours of work consulting books and
tables then doing the calculations yourself.
Fully functional Palm demo version, available for free,
allows you to try it 10 days and includes a few "please
register me" nags. Desktop trial lets you try it 10 times.
Comes with an interactive tutorial that demonstrates and
