Details on the Duct Sections Table
Information about the Duct sections table in the calculation dialog for ventilation.
You are here:
Table for pressure loss calculation
This table shows the calculation data for all duct sections of the selected flow path. If you select a duct section, the table Components displays all corresponding components.
Lock/Unlock duct sections
Opens the dialog Lock/Unlock duct sections in which you define or solve the dimensioning of all components of the selected system, the selected flow path or the selected duct section. Fixed dimensions are shown in bold in columns a, b or d and are not changed during dimensioning.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| No. | Number of the duct section. |
| Type | Pipe type. OA: Outdoor air SU: Supply air EX: Extract air EXH: Exhaust air |
| T | Air temperature. |
| F | Volume flow, if necessary converted taking into account the temperature and the associated air density. |
| l | Cumulative length of all pipes or ducts of this section. The length be changed in the table. The new length will be distributed among all ducts of the duct sections proportionately to constructed length. All pipes affected by the change in length will be displayed bold in the tables for duct sections and components. |
| a | Height of the duct for rectangular- or oval-duct. |
| b | Width of the duct for rectangular- or oval-duct. |
| d (dh) | Diameter of the duct for round ducts (the hydraulically equivalent diameter for oval or rectangular cross sections). |
| v | Velocity. |
| R | R-value for straight pipes or ducts. |
| l*R | Pressure loss due to pipe friction in this pipe/duct section. |
| Zeta | Total of zeta values for all components in this pipe/duct section. |
| Z | Pressure loss due to zeta value. |
| dp | Total of all pressure losses. |
| dpFP | Static pressure recovery. |
| dpA | Total pressure loss. |
| Residual dB (only for sound level calculation) | Unweighted sound level at the outlet of this pipe/duct section. |
