HyperCalc Plus – Units Calculator

HyperCalc Plus provides a convenient means for converting between English and Metric (SI) units. For example the figure below demonstrates that the ג€Lengthג€ Context provides the functionality to convert between five metric units and nine English units. One meter equals 39.370 or 39 and 3/8 inches. Entering a value on the meter side automatically produces the equivalent inches, and vice versa. There are 13 Contexts for common units. In addition there are two specialty groups of units: ג€Civil Structuralג€ containing 12 contexts including mass, force, pressure, moments, etc. and ג€Electricalג€ containing 18 contexts.

HyperCalc Plus also provides forms for ג€Transportationג€ equations including: Sight Distance, Vertical Curve, Vertical Passing Distance, Horizontal Curve, and Passing Distance. Forms for ג€Drainageג€ equations include: Continuity, Darcy-Weisbach, Friction Factor, Hazen-Williams, Mannings, Circular Shape Properties, Trapezoid Shape Properties, Rational Formula, and Reynolds Number.
