How many CFM does a 20 inch box fan move?
7.265
How do you calculate duct size with area given?
if the area given is 100 square inches you can use 10" by 10" duct due to a black art known as aerodynamics or compressible fluid flow, you will get the same back pressure in a 10" diameter round duct and a 2" x 50" duct considerably more back pressure a nice manufactured 90 will take as much back pressure as 50' of duct a tight curved 90 will take as much as 100 feet of duct fans have a curve that goes from maximum cfm at no pressure to minimum cfm at max pressure the fan will require the most power when cfm * pressure is highest simple as rocket science i guess
How big should an air return be how many square inches per square foot of house?
Air return duct and filter grille size is dictated by the size of the unit (CFM) not the size of the house.
How do you calculate the tonnage of AHU?
You need 350 to 400 cfm per ton (12,000 btu) of cooling. So, divide your cfm by 400. For example, a 1200 cfm blower on an air handler could handler up to 3 tons. All calculations depend on your duct being the proper size for the equipment.
How many cfm of air equals 1 ton of air?
There are 400 cfm in 1 ton
What size return do you need for a 4 ton air conditioner?
24" round duct or equal. register should be about 2 cfm per sq. inch. or 800 sq. inches for 4 tons

What is the airflow velocity within a branch duct if the flow rate is 175 cfm and the duct is 12 inches high by 18 inches wide?
answer is
How much air flow in cfm's comes from a typical 20 inch box fan?
~ 1000 cfm
What is the cfm of 2 inch pipe at 125 psi?
350
What is the formula for duct sizing?
To calculate the formula for duct sizing divide the room load by the whole house load. Next multiply those results by the equipment CFM.
1tr equals how many cfm?
1tr = 400 cfm
What is the formula to convert FPM to CFM?
If you know the FPM and you know the area of your flow say duct work (20"x20")...first convert your area 20*20=400 in2 to Ft220"*20" = 400in2 400in2/144 = 2.7777Ft2Now that you know the area in Ft2 you can use the equation [ FPM*area(ft2) = CFM ]if your FPM is 500 and we use the 20"x20" duct then500fpm * 2.777Ft2 = 1388.5 cfm
To increase air flow between rooms should vent be installed on the upper or lower part of a door?
It depends. If your bedroom has a supply AND return duct, then no. If there is only a supply duct, and you shut your bedroom door, this pressurizes the bedroom and limits the CFM delivered into the bedroom. A room to room vent or duct would equalize this pressure and allow maximum CFM to be delivered from the central air/heat system.
1 pa equals how many CFM?
1 pa = ? CFM
How can clculate return duct size?
There are going to be allot of varying opinions on this one but it's fairly simple to get in a good ball park. You want between 600 to 800 feet per minute of air flow so you need to know the CFM of your air handler and then you can calculate it this way. Ftcube /min divide by Ft / Min = Ft square. At 1200 CFM for a flow rate of 800 Ft/min you get a result of 1.5 square feet which is 216 square inches. If you divide by 8 for the prefab 8 inch duct you need a 27 inch wide dimension or 16 X 13.5. Good luck on your project.
