    Recommend me frigie iPhone apps?



    Hey guys, I've bitten the bullet and now have an iphone, the 3GS version.

    Can anyone recommend some useful applications for our trade please? And where to get them - Apple's Apps store doesn't stock HVACR apps. Or if it does, they're well hidden!

    Cheers.

    Gocalc
    Refrigerants
    Scale rule

    Flashlight
    Plus the usual ones that most Iphoners use.
    Please give us more - cause we can never get enough
    Try a google search for iphone apps - they have changed with time due to some of them offering crac/pirate software. Not to every ones taste I got a lot of gigglesfrom Ifarty (free) and downloaded Spoof but didn't use it due to well I ran out of time to play with all these tools. One last note to be aware of possible health hazzards from phone radiation.

    Airflow, superheat, subcool, load calc, hvac, refrigeration, duct, pt chart, psychro, motor, elec, temp, decibel, fan, meter and wire are all search's that bring up related stuff.
    The programs are all good but some have features or info others don't. I like PT Chart because you can assign and use only the refrigerants you use the most. It's also colored making flipping to the right chart fast. But the range of refrigerants is small. PTChart has every refrigerant and is slower and messy to use.
    Refrigerants is somewhere in the middle and HVAC PT is so slow on mine to be practically unusable. But I have the old phone so speed could make it the killer app. For us being a very small programming nich these programmers have made us some cool stuff.

    I had a good look around and found that the 'Bitzer PT reference' was the best. Its also free!
    It has a pressure/temp sliding scale which can flick between bar/psi and C/F. Also has a list of info regarding the chosen refrigerant.
