Setting Limit Values for Switching Between Round and Rectangular Ducts

Shows step-by-step how to set limit values for switching between round and rectangular ducts during dimensioning.

Before you begin

You want to change the duct geometry automatically in the dimensioning from certain limit values.

Navigate to:

Project tabDisciplines …Ventilation Analyse tabSettings

Applies to: Ventilation.

Procedure

  1. Open the section Duct dimensions with a click.
  2. Activate the Use oval duct option if oval ducts are also to be used in the dimensioning.
  3. In the drop-down lists, define the limit value from which the dimensioning is to switch to oval or rectangular channel.

Results

The limit values are set and are taken into account in the calculation. If the Adjust nominal diameters command is used in the calculation dialog, the pipes are generated on the bases of default values.
