• Fan performance
• Fan volume flow rate (m3/s or l/s), Vf
• Fan total pressure Δptf, fan velocity pressure pvf &
fan static pressure Δpsf (Pa)
• Fan power & efficiency
• Fan power or air power (W) = Δptf x Vf
• Fan power input on the fan shaft (brake horsepower), Pf
Tubular centrifugal fan Centrifugal roof ventilator • Fan total efficiency: ηt = Δptf x Vf / Pf
• Combined index of aerodynamic, volumetric & mechanical
efficiencies
• Air temp. increase through fan, ΔTf = Δptf /(ρcpaηt)

• Circular equivalent
• Hydraulic diameter, Dh = 4 A / P
• A = area (mm2); P = perimeter (mm)
• Rectangular duct:
• Dynamic losses
• Result from flow disturbances caused by duct-
mounted equipment and fittings
• Change airflow path’s direction and/or area
• Flow separation & eddies/disturbances
• In dynamic similarity (same Reynolds number &
geometrically similar duct fittings), dynamic loss
is proportional to their velocity pressure Region of eddies and

Air duct design
• Duct layout
• Symmetric layout is easier to balance
• Smaller main duct & shorter design path
• For VAV systems, duct looping allows feed from
opposite direction
• Optimise transporting capacity (balance points often
follow the sun’s position)
• Result in smaller main duct
• Compare alternative layouts & reduce fittings
• For exposed ducts, appearance & integration with
the structure is important

Ventilation design
Ventilation design
• Purposes of ventilation
• Maintain human comfort and health
• Provide sufficient air/oxygen for human/livestock
• Provide sufficient air/oxygen for processes
• Remove products of respiration and bodily odour
• Remove contaminants or harmful chemicals
• Remove heat generated indoor
* Also ensure outdoor air intake is of adequate quality • Create air movement (feeling of
freshness/comfort)

Ventilation design
• Ventilation calculations
• For general mechanical ventilation:
• Ventilation Rate (m3/h) = Air Change Rate (/h) x Room
Volume (m3)
• Ventilation Rate (m3/s) = Ventilation Rate (m3/h) / 3600
• For calculating fresh air ventilation rates
• Fresh air rate (m3/s) = Fresh air rate per person (l/s/p) x
number of occupants
• Ventilation effectiveness
• Depend on ventilation strategy, air distribution Changes in the minimum ventilation rates in the USA

• Industrial ventilation
• An important method for reducing employee
exposures to airborne contaminants

• Capture or contain contaminates at their source before
they escape into the workplace environment
