HI
I was wondering if some1 has a simplified yet comprehensive e-book for duct design :confused:

Hello pal.

Click HERE (http://www.ventaxia.co.uk/knowledge/handbook/system.pdf) for a starting point.
It takes you to Ventaxia (the fan manufacturers) website. The e-book in the link is a very good guide.

wow thanks
very nice link
what is the static pressure relation with length/bends in a duct?

All fittings in duct work as in piping have pressure drop equivelents to what is called straight duct or pipe
EX: say a 45* fitting would be say the equivelent of 25 feet of straight duct or pipe

well all the link emphasises on circular duct
i think when u know the standards of velocities to be maintained on supply/exhaust diffusers and branch and main ducts then all that is left is mere calculator to ensure required cross sectional areas with length and height.

Can any1 give me a chart to elaborate what impact different bends(90*,45*0 have on static pressure?

On the same site is another e-book, turn to page 10 (http://www.ventaxia.co.uk/knowledge/handbook/system.pdf). ;)

Happy reading
