Total Pressure loss

NOTE:

1 ρ - air temp at 20deg -density 1.20kg/m³ at relative humidity of 50% - cibse table 4.A1.2

2 ESP Calculations based on ASHRAE & SMACNA Engineering data, Duct design and tables [Chapter 16]

3 Motorized Dampers, Fire dampers considered as 100% open

4 VCDs considered as 100% open / opposed blade construction

5 Elbows are considered smooth radius with 1-Splitter vane for the calculations

6 Highest pressure drops are considered for each fitting

7 Duct Correction factor considered for Medium Rough Surface

8 Calculations are done as per design flow
