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 VCDs considered as 100% open / opposed blade construction

4 Elbows are considered smooth radius for the calculations

5 Highest pressure drops are considered for each fitting

6 Duct Correction factor considered for Medium Rough Surface

7 Calculations are done as per design flow
