Re: Duct Size Calculations
Hi,
Based on equal friction method, you are following correct procedure.
With reference to length of ducts, it needs to be measured so that static pressure of blowers can be calculated.
Pressure loss across duct fittings can be obtain from chapter on duct fittings from ASHRAE handbook.

Re: Duct Size Calculations
This is a small software (vietnamese) for Duct Size Calculations.
You can try using it . Simply, you click start button-enter unit for air volume and.......
If you have any better software , could you give it to me ?
Thanks for using my soft and pls give me some comments.
Bye !

For equal friction method using friction loss of 0.1in/100ft for supply and 0.05/100 ft for return, do we need to calculate friction loss for the actual length of duct after taking in to consideration loss added by fittings. Where do we get information about loss added by fitting. till now I am simply aligning 0.1 in against cfm and finding the duct size in the window disregarding duct length.

for sure there it is ... even searching RE forums is possible to find many links or formulas how to calculate ducts...
for some reason (or maybe by default) this way is easier ... otherwise our poster/s must spent some time for searching
... and maybe learn something what is not so popular nowadays, no time ;) .... only instant answers ...
Best regards, Josip :)

An article in the May 2009 ASHRAE journal describes an Excel spreadsheet that sizes ducts by the equal friction method, and computes fan external static. I would attach the article, but it's too big. You may be able to access it at the ASHRAE journal web site. It is possible also that you can still download the spreadsheet from the web site. I have a copy and could attach it, but this forum does not support .xls attachments.:(

Re: Duct Size Calculations
At my web site www.nettally.com/doughert you will find an excel spread sheet that calculates duct size, air flow velocity, and external static pressure for a duct system. You can input the friction loss/100 ft that you want to use, the air flow rate, the duct height if rectangular, and the length of each leg. If the duct is round, you just enter 0 for duct height, and the program computes round duct diameter. Instructions for running the macros are on sheet 1.
This spread sheet was featured in the ASHRAE Journal in May, 2009.
You may contact me if you have questions.
