Charts: Dr. Ali Hammoud Exam - 2011

This document contains information about calculating friction losses in ductwork systems, including: - A table showing friction charts for round ducts from the ASHRAE Handbook Fundamentals 2001. - Equations for calculating static pressure drop, total pressure drop, and the fan head required to overcome total system losses. - Information on using equivalent lengths to simplify calculations for fittings like elbows and diverging wyes.
