Hello,
I have an issue with hydraulic calculation which are made for ventilation installation.
What I need is to calculate a pressure loss on a ductwork to fit a correct fan or ahu. For those who are not a sanitary engineers i explain that for that calculation I have to total linear loss which depands on duct's roughness and lenght and local losses which are couses by changing duct direcion, dimensions etc.
ABD has a tool called Duct System Sizing Dialogs but what I find is that it calculate only a linear losses and not even for duct's size which I drawn in a model but for duct's size which is set on settings>limit duct velocity. And here my question:
- can ABD callculate also local losses causes by elbows, transitions etc?
- can I set Duct System Sizing tool to make a calculation for a duct's size which I drawn on a model?
- can I export that calculation to an exel file?
It seems that without program's abilty to make that simple calculations I will have to find out another program to make it. Does anyone know a program which is working with aecosim and can make those calculations?
