Description

In this chapter, system design and calculation of a system’s frictional and dynamic resistance (total pressure) to airflow are considered. Chapter 19 of the 2016 ASHRAE Handbook–HVAC Systems and Equipment examines duct construction and presents construction standards for residential, commercial, and industrial HVAC and exhaust systems. For design guidance specific to residential systems, refer to Manual D by ACCA (1994).
