The design of localized drip irrigation systems requires knowledge of the geometry of the wet bulb, which allows for determining the area wetted by the emitter and meeting the assumption of the minimum wetted area and the necessary overlap. This work aims to determine the number and spacing between emitters for localized drip irrigation in perennial crops using a simplified electronic spreadsheet. The BULBOCALC spreadsheet was created in Microsoft Excel ® software using the VBA programming language. For validation, two case studies were adopted, one using an empirical method and the other using the field method. Simply put, BULBOCALC proved to be an effective tool for determining the number and spacing between emitters, and it is also possible to graphically visualize the geometry of the wet bulb for field tests.
