DIMSUB, a computer program for designing microirrigation subunits. Tool definition and case studies

Abstract: DIMSUB is a computer program to complement a decision support tool (DST) to effectively study different hydraulic design alternatives in microirrigation systems. We developed environments in Visual Basic for applications for Microsoft Excel ® that allow specific step-by-step functions to be created for the design of irrigation subunits. Different alternatives can be considered, such as types of emitter, lateral and submain pipe sizes, different feeding points, irregular subunit shapes and topography slopes.… Show more

“…With the help of software, designers can automate many of the calculations involved in designing the main pipe, making the process faster, more accurate, and less prone to errors. The software can also account for variations in ow rates, pipe lengths, and friction losses, which can be challenging to calculate manually (Pedras et al 2009;Carrion et al 2013;Palau et al 2018;Patel et al 2018). In addition to improving accuracy and reducing errors, web-based software can offer added bene ts.…”
