Area surface area of duct in square feet.
Square duct to round duct formula.
Then measure the length of the duct in inches and multiply by the circumference.
This is the number of square inches in the duct area.
2001 ashrae fundamentals p.
To then convert that to volume you multiply the resulting area by the length.
Multiply this number by 3 14 pi to get the area of the round duct in square inches for example 16 x 3 14 50 24 square inches.
Gustafson g 0 single wall round rectangular to round conversion de 1 30 ab 0 625 a b 0 250 a length of one side of rectangular duct inch b length of adjacent side of rectangular duct inch de circular equivalent of rectangular duct for equal friction and capacity inch source.
Measured in inches of water column in wc it acts equally in all directions and is independent of velocity.
The rectangular dimensions and the air flow volume are adapted to the equal friction loss.
D diameter of duct in inches.
Static pressure is the pressure that causes air in the duct to.
The area will cover a two dimensional slice of the duct.
This online air duct calculator is used to calculate the velocity of air flow feet per minute fpm and feet per second fps through any shaped circle square or rectangle ductulator with either diameter sides or area.
Divide by 144 to determine how many square feet are in the duct area.
Area pi d 12 l where.
Duct areas in square feet can be calculated by using geometry rules for round areas.
Air duct also termed as ductulator is a passage that is used to provide fresh air into rooms buildings etc air ducts may be in circular square and in rectangular shapes.
The equivalent diameter is the diameter of a circular duct or pipe that gives the same pressure loss as an equivalent rectangular duct or pipe.
Step 5 select a size of square duct that has the same area.
The table below can be used to compare equivalent diameters for rectangular and round circular ducts.
The table is based on the ducts friction loss formula.
12 inches per foot.
