Duct Size Worksheet

A duct size worksheet turns airflow into a round or rectangular duct size, then checks velocity and straight-duct pressure loss before fittings are added.

Velocity sizing

A = Q / v

Worksheet rows

  • Airflow: use design airflow through the specific trunk or branch.
  • Target velocity: sets first-pass free area and round diameter.
  • Friction rate: screens the pressure drop for straight duct.

Follow-up

After picking the duct size, run duct friction loss for equivalent length and then total external static pressure for blower margin.
