Step -1
Assign velocity at each section of the
duct.The velocity is highest at the fan
outlet
Selected velocity should not be more than
recommended velocity. The velocity
will be lowest at the end of the
duct
Step -2
Obtain circular duct diameter and friction
loss from Circular Duct Friction Chart by
using air velocity and airflow.
Equal Friction Method
Step -1
Select starting velocity at fan discharge duct.
Selected velocity should not be more than
recommended velocity.
Step -2
Obtain circular duct diameter and friction loss
from Circular Duct Friction Chart by using air
velocity and airflow.
Equal Friction Method
Step -3
Select equivalent rectangular duct size from
Table -6 using the circular duct diameter and
equivalent area based on available space
Step -4
Select the next duct section by maintaining
the same friction loss rate which has been
obtained in previous duct section.
Cross check the velocity should not exceed the
recommended velocity.
Repeat the method for consecutive section
