4 System Design
The Balance by Design Method will be used in the design of this system. In this design
method, calculation is done from each hood then proceeds, segment by segment, towards the fan.
The following will be determined or calculated:
Steps 1-13 basically covers the calculation of the pressure losses in each duct segment
(from hood towards the junction). Steps 1-13 will be repeated to a different segment of the
system. After it has been done, the duct SP loss for both segments/branches will be compared.

After satisfying the condition, the pressure losses from the junction up until the fan will
be calculated. Steps 1-13 will be repeated. At this point the flowrate now will be the sum of the
flowrates of the two branches.
